Got new tires put on top and got them put on the truck. Did a half *** cleaning on them. They need a good detailed cleaning they have some grime on them from the junk yard. Anyway here's the pics. After I get back from knoxville next weekend I will be ordering a 2/4 drop kit for it.



The red fleet






The whole fleet as of right now.

 

Looks good but you have too many vehicles

 

Can never have enough, but on another note. I'll be selling the ranger's here shortly and picking up a trail beater and putting some money in my pocket. Got the f150 and fusion I can spread the DD work with and the mustang is the weekend toy.

 

d@mn that truck is looking CLEAN!

thought about removing the pinstripe?

 

Thanks sir. Thought about it, but i'm undecided.

 

Looks good. I'd take the steps off though.

 

Looks really good man! Yeah I agree remove the pinstripes and take off the steps! It'll look really good with the drop

 

Thanks guys. the steps will stay on till I can afford to get the hide away steps. Unless it sits low enough for my mom to get in once its dropped.

 

Looks sick man. My family has tons of cars also, its great. 3 Trucks, a mercedes, a corvette.

 

Nice! Yeah pull the steps after the drop for sure.

 

No more "PIMPstripes"

haha ;-)

 

What % window tint is on the F150? Looks like 20% front maybe, but also 50% or something on the windshield?
I hate to admit this, but I'm really looking for some very light tint for heat rejection on the windshield, I just don't want it to stand out.


I agree, pull the steps after it's lowered. Mud flaps, pin stripe and maybe the vent shades too. The in-channel shades are okay but I never liked the look of the stick on setups. I'm a pretty big fan of de-modding that kind of stuff for a cleaner look though anyway.

 

Thanks man!

lol i plan on it, but if my mom still needs the steps to get in i'm going to get the hide away if they aren't crazy expensive.

It has the factory privacy on the back. the front/side windows have 35%(legal) and front has 50% with a strip that makes it 35% at the top. I like it, but if you drive with the windows down it can be a bit annoying with the how bright the light is coming from the side. I've been thinking about getting it pulled off to be honest. it doesn't help as much as you'd think.

 

Good to know. I actually don't want 50% on the windshield, it stands out a little too much for me. The place that tinted the Golf had various films from Madico, one of them was a really light 60%. He said they have used it on a lot of windshields and he hasn't had a single complaint. I'm still wanting to find llumar air blue which is only 80% and high heat rejection but I can't find anyone with it around here.

Nice collection of Fords by the way. lol

 

Dont get me wrong its great if you never roll your windows down, but like me I love fresh air. So when the temp is right I roll them down, but in the 150 its annoying lol. I actually have one that isn't in the picture. It's my grandmother's old mercury wagon my sister had and now we are giving it to my fiance so she has a car. They just a got a prius......lol. I'm going to be down grading soon. Will be letting both rangers go. I decided I want a trail rig and dont want to destroy a nice ranger. I tore up my old ranger more then I should of. So i'm going to sell the 4x4 and buy something for around 5k and pocket the rest into savings. that'll leave me with the f150 and fusion to mix up my DD duties and the mustang as a weekend toy.

 

I agree the steps definitely need to go once it's dropped. It will look real goofy lowered with steps. It does look real good though.

 

Thanks Mike!

 

Ewww prius! Man that car is a huge fail. lol
Uncomfortable, horribly ugly, drives like garbage, painfully slow... And highway mileage is nothing to jump up and down about. My wife's coworkers that have priuses are so jealous of her new Golf TDI.
I love the Golf so far. Fun to drive, super comfortable, well thought out interior, tons of torque, awesome mileage. The car is rock solid at 75-80mph, quiet, and sips down fuel at 45-50mpg at that speed. It handles the windy back roads better than the Subaru LGT in most ways even.
I swear so many people just buy a car for the status, without actually driving anything else. haha


Unfortunately I rarely drive with the windows down at all here. SO many freakin people smoke here, I cannot drive more than 2-3 blocks without my truck getting filled with someone's cigarette smoke, and I'm really sensitive to it. Unless I am on a nearly deserted road, the climate control is on recirculate. ugh

 

That's sucks that your getting rid of both the rangers. You should buy a bronco!!!

 

I hear you on the smoking. Luckily there is still plenty of fresh air here. I'd love to have a TDI. Might look into one later on and give the fiance the fusion once we have kids. Who knows though thats still a few years from now.

I love the rangers, but i'll benefit more getting rid of them. I am considering a bronco, but I'm leaning towards a wrangler. I've always wanted one and I'd love to have a convertible!

 

Man, mod your stuff however you want, all your vehicles look great, sad to hear you are goin to get rid of both Rangers though... But, fwiw, in my opinion I've always been a fan of the Lariat pinstipes on the SuperCrews. (My dad has a blue '01)
