Then today it was back to work. Not much rain the past week, that’s 25% of what I usually bag.

Yesterday I rotated the tires (4,969 miles) and checked the brakes. Washed the rims before installing the wheels back on the truck. I then attended my oldest grandson's high school graduation party. Good times

I spent the day with it. Vacuumed it, power washed the floor mats, put 303 on all the exterior seals and plastic bits, the tonneau cover, and the interior. Then took my girl for a spin to Taco Bell for dinner.

I didn't take any pictures because I think I have enough credibility around here to say I did something and have the good folks of Ranger5G believe that's it's done?

I got it out of the garage and drove it to the Walgreens. The lovely wife asked me to run an errand for her.

I noticed it had clicked over 2700 miles when I pulled back into the garage and it got me wondering how many miles have been put on it since I changed insurance companies last December.

I got the Smartmiles policy with the module that plugs into the diagnostic port and I'm able to see how many miles I've driven it since December 5th, 2021.

Having a company provided vehicle sure keeps the miles down on the Ranger. I still plan for it to be the last vehicle I'll ever purchase. :)

I didn't make a picture today, but here's one from when I went to the Hardware store a few weeks back.

Look at that sporty Supercab!

This weekend I was working timing at the NCR-SCCA Time Trial at NCCAR. On Saturday a Civic decided running was not mandatory and after he was flat towed off of track the car still would not run. So, I borrowed a trailer from a friend there and towed the Civic house a little over an hour from the track. Sad he couldn't enjoy the full weekend, and the tow truck said they wanted $700 to tow him home. Gas in the truck was maybe $85 for the tow, which he covered.

Had to do a little wet sanding on my driver side running board. A overloaded tricycle with water jugs on it run into the board. Luckily the board prevented the truck from getting hit. The guy could not even see except only to the front and left side, he came across the lane into me. It just peeled a small strip of plastic off the edge. I told him he better start staying in his lane if he can't see. Between the tricycle and scooter riders here it can be a nightmare. The drivers here are the worst I have ever seen anywhere I have ever traveled.

How did you secure your ARB compressor ?

I drilled holes in the bedside , and used eye bolts to give the bungees a place to anchor. The weight of the ARB box rests on the wheel well. It has not got away from its little dock, in numerous trail adventures..
