The Ranger is a great truck. The towing capability made it the direction I was going before I came to the conclusion that my ass is too fat for a Ranger or Gladiator. (I also thought the backseat was too small for 2 kids and a dog.)
I do like the Ranger!! It is the right size for me... I felt the same way about the Tacoma of which I have had two. When it came time to buy though I would have had to look at used tacomas vs a new ranger with the equipment I got.

What did you cover your lower bumper with? Thats not the trd with black grill valence and lower bumper blacked out.
Hey. I used vinyl rap. VViViD brand. My only complaint would be that the vinyl occasionally gets rock chips during the cold Canadian winters driving to the ski hills.

The Wrangler Jl is such an improvement over the JK. We also have a long JK, but it will have to go. Waiting for the Gladiator to arrive here in Europe.

The Hummer sucks for towing, but fun all day.

The Outlanders are a blast.

How does the 460 pull?
It does great, it has a 6500lb capacity . Only thing is when we go a bit far, I like to trailer from Miami to the mid keys and boy does it burn gas. All wheel drive all the time is great except for gas lol

I like the change with the headlights. Those rims 100%.
Thanks. The headlights are Morimoto Headlights with sequential turn signals. Truck rides a little rougher with 24" wheels but I love the look.

Got a new tow rig a few days ago. 2020 Sierra Denali with the Ultimate Package with the 6.2 V8 engine and 4 wheel drive. This thing is amazing compared to my 2015 Sierra Denali. Wider, Taller, amazing interior and love the trailer cameras that come on when you switch lanes. Hope you enjoy the pics. These pics were taken for heading down to Lake Gaston for a few days. Much prefer the lift at home but the wife loves Lake Gaston and it’s a nice change from the fresh water. Was hoping this new tow rig would be pulling a 2021 255 Yamaha boat but I’m really not feeling what I saw the other day on the release so sticking with the SX210 for now.
