I'll see about cutting the gadget off then. Once off, it should be simple to cut it open and hopefully solve the mystery. My luck, it will be just like Geraldo's opening of Al Capone's vault. Empty.
L.O.L on Al's valt man. Ok we can wait a bit. I extremely curious as to what that thing is. We've seen some pretty strange things in here before but this has got to be the strangest mystery we've had in here so far.

If there's nothing attached to it, and it serves no purpose, cut it off, so it doesn't snag on something, and destroy the exhaust it's hooked to.

I'd wear a mask while cutting it open though. Never know what could be inside.

A carbon filter used in grow houses... this certainly LOOKS like it - maybe the previous owner had a hash farm operating under the truck!!

I Know exactly what that is! It's the continuemtransfunctioner they put on all '03 rangers. GREAT SCOTT DON'T CUT IT OFF!!!! You will end up in 1985 and then it's really hard to find parts for that model. ........ thats my best guest.
