    Stopped by Harry's U-Pull It in Hazleton yesterday after the Cabela's meet to get my buddy a driveshaft for his Durango. Ended up finding an EXACT CLONE of my truck there! Got this bad boy immediately, went home, down into the basement, and washed it up. Used three coats of rubbing compound on it and Meguiar's Gold Class wax, and it looks nearly brand new. Extremely happy I found this because the paint alone would be a lot more than I paid for it. Of course it ain't perfect, but it looks a ton better than the old one did. And I know I told yous that I'd be putting a camo Ford sticker on like the old white and blue one, but that ain't happening. I like the clean look my ass end has now lol LOVING HARRY'S! lol Multiple great finds within a few weeks haha

    Fail..... lol I don't think they had any stepsides there believe it or not... There were a ton of older style (93-97) Rangers, but I didn't see any of yours. Or stepsides... You can mod this one though. :D

    Nah, not too many. Have a ton of older Rangers. But the newest trucks I've seen would be the 08 Rangers (2) that were wrecks. The rest are 2 01's, and 99-. That's why I jump at the opportunity of seeing an exact clone of my truck.
