Now THATS a detail...

Nice job! What year and how many miles? Which motor? My brother had a Shortbox Single cab with a 4.0L V6 and a manual.

That truck hauled ba11z .

I hate Rangers very much so, but that truck is clean. The carpet is so clean looking! Nice job.

It's still in production, but slated to done by the end of the year. The incentives and deals on the things are insane, and it's pretty much unchanged from the OP's truck.

The very last thing I had to do was order a new rear bumper because this one is bent on the driver side. Just found one on eBay. NOW I am totally done. WOOOOOOOT.
