Hey Minnesota Guys, Terry aka Machine has not been on for a couple days, which is rare. He posted on friday or Saturday that He was in the hospital in South Dakota with his dad and would be back Monday or early Tuesday. He was also online sunday at the hospital. Some of the BS thread guys are wondering if he and/or his Dad are ok and don't have other means of contacting him. If anyone has heard from him or has an alternate method of contact for him, Please check in with him and make sure all is well with him and his father. I am sub'ed to this thread and will check back if anyone hears from him.

Thanks Guys.

Tom

Aug. 4 sounds good to me. I'm new to the forum but live very near Canterbury Downs, and would love to check out some other Rangers!

Sorry to hear that. Prayers go out to them.

As far as contact, I don't think anybody on here can contact him other than FRF and facebook.

Canterbury sounds good. Seems like a close place for most. Except for the long distance driver! Sorry glenn!

hi guy's, I'm still in south dakota.
dad's antibiotics for his type B strep and celulitis disease did not help. They are changing to a new antibiotic and maybe (maybe) he will be well enough to go back home to minnesota this saturday.
Thanks for the concerns!!

friday update on my dad: He is improving greatly, but infection is still in him. His new antibiotics are slowly working and Dad feels fine and is now walking around, laughing and having a good time. The doctor say's he has to stay in the hospital at least until next tuesday. So, we HOPE to be back in minnesota then.
I'll try to give updates every day or so.

That's good Terry.
Glad u made it home and he's doing better.



I got my window visor vents on my drivers side and passenger side windows.
Looks nice with my newly tinted windows.
Will be putting my new hood bug deflector on soon, but should I paint it up and make it look cool? I was thinking doing it gloss black, then at the bottom a solid red matching my truck and then mist it up like a sutle flame with a hint of yellow.

Hey everybody! So every Monday night there is a car meet at this drive in by the old Grand Rios water park (Wagner's drive in) in Brooklyn Park. There are a ton of muscle cars and imports and trucks...I really think it would be cool to have a little section of rangers there, that aren't lowered like all of the other damn mini trucks!! We would get alot of looks from the people there and be able to check out other cars too!! I plan on going most Mondays just because I had so much fun! Let me know what you guys think, the meet is called Rice Killers, check out their web site for more info!!!!

I'd go with the Nitto Grapplers, those are a good decent tire for the buck.

That would be fun, but Monday is just the wrong day/night. Would be best if it was a Friday or a Saturday.



I keep getting a P0401 CEL code. Exhaust Gas Recirculation insufficient detected error. Gotten it like 5 times, once a day or so. But it's wierd, the first one was a P0402 excessive error, not I just get the insufficient ones. Been told its the DPFE sensor or the EGR valve. Anyone here ever dealt with this?

Forgot to post anything about my tires. Saw an ad in the paper about a new tires plus in shakopee and were offering some good deals. Went to check it out and ended up buying some Goodyear Dura-tracs size 265/75R16. These things look great. Hope they last fairly long. some pics.




Doing a mild tbar crank really soon to level out the truck. I think overall it looks 150% better.

Also on a seperate note, I have a ton of vacationing coming up. This weekend is camping with a huge group at Baker Park Reserve, where we had our meet. Then the 2nd through the 7th is a fishing trip to Kenora, Ontario, Canada. Can't wait! last year we were catching over 100 walleyes a day! Only can keep 4 each though

----------

Forgot to add that one of the dumb@z$'s at tires plus broke my tailgate handle and bent the living hell out of my right work light mount when they were putting my old tires in the back. Super pist! Don't know how they even broke the tailgate handle. Luckily they are replacing the handle tomorrow.

Wow those look good, next a body lift??

I love my dura tracs man.
Those 265/75 how close are those to 31s or 32s???
Did you request that they put the white lettering on the back side?



Looks real good with the brush guard too.
