Well I found out the distance between the wheel wells is 44.8" so a plywood sheet won't fit.
Every vehicle has its purpose. Dodge trucks are to keep the service departments busy.

I read that Ford is planning on offering the twin turbo 2.7 V6 in the Rangers. Better put drag radials on those things.

If the fuel mileage is 4 mpg better, maybe a savings of $200-$300 a year.

Driving a new truck is a great feeling but new vehicle smell is priceless.
