  1. Leveling kit and remove the No Club sticker and it would be perfect.
  2. 454 auto. I'm hoping to get it up on a jack or hoist today to determine the gear ratio, I think they've been swapped for a much lower set. The speedometer is off by 30km/h (@120km/h the truck is only doing 90km/h) and at 90km/h the truck is at almost 4000rpm. And it's in OD. If it's not the gears, than I've got some detective work to do.
  3. Bought the 18 Sierra RCSB a new stable mate. 98 C3500. Bit of an impulse buy, but it'll be handy to have around.
  4. Put it away for the winter.
  5. Jesus, 6"... what are you getting a cab with a tailgate behind it. Lol
  6. I found mine at a dealer. They had three, two Chevy's and the GMC I bought. They are hard to find until you get one, then they start coming out of the wood work. There are 15 around me know, including one that's identical to mine (other than mines lowered).
  7. I like those wheels. I was thinking about getting a set before I lowered my truck.
  8. 275/55r20's are a stock size. My truck two posts up has them. It's lowered 2/5.
  9. Had it at 6" originally, looked like it was squatting, so put it back up. Plus I do still tow and use the truck so I wanted some rake.
  10. Finally got around to dropping the truck. 2" belltech spindles and belltech flip kit at 5". May go another 1-2" up front and 1" in the back next year. On the look out for street tires, but until then. I'm happy with it.
  11. Washed it after lowering it.
  12. Not the daily, but the toy...
  13. My new DD to keep the miles off the truck and just because... 2019 Kia Optima EX limited. I'll use it year round and on my weekly 2 hour drive to Hamilton. Monthly payment is less than the cost to fuel the Envoy for a month and the Kia doesn't have 275k km on it and a slipping transmission.
  14. Trucks look like toothless hillbillies with out the air damn. I've never had a problem getting around them.
  15. Used it as a truck today. Dump run
  16. Don't get me started on RCSB's that still pisses me off. Pretty sure my 2018 RCSB is the last truck I'll buy. Hell in Dubai, and maybe Mexico, you can get a Trailboss RCSB and both GMC and Chevy have full consoles as option. It's pathetic IMO. But nothing from the 1993-2013ish generation Ranger carried over to the new Ranger. The new Ranger is just a recycled European/Asian Ranger, much like the GM midsize trucks are. There is nothing "New" about them, besides the fact the are new to this Market.
  17. Because they aren't still selling 2013 Rangers. To North America it is an all new design. I agree, it's not impressive just like the Colorado and Canyon are less than impressive too me. But much like GM, Ford see's a potential to make sales in the market, so they took it. Sales in the mid size truck market dropped when GM, Ford and Chrysler got out of it. Then GM came back with the new Colorado/Canyon, and saw sales. So Ford scrabbled and brought the Ranger back and Chrysler(now Fiat) finally brought the Gladiator. Give it 10 years and they'll pull back out of the now flooded market again. The same is coming for the over flooded CUV market. The surge in CUV's show that manufacturers haven't learned anything, they continue to flood markets with the same things instead of diversifying.
  18. I see a lot more in town since I bought mine, which is often the case. Likely not a resurgence, but more you just notice them more when you own one.
  19. I take my truck to a touchless if I don't have time to clean the bugs off, other than that I wash it myself. With the ceramic coating the bugs come right off. And I don't drive this in the winter, that's what the Envoy is for.
  20. I went up, not down. Also put the Dynapro's back on. The 420's just wouldn't balance worth a shit, so I flipped them for more then I paid for them. Went from a 3" shackle drop, to a 1.5" front spacer. I have 5100's waiting to go on, but not till I decide what tire size I want. I still have the 2/5 drop kit, in case i ever decide to go down again. Options are nice lol.
  21. Washed it a few days ago, but still looks good. Gotta love ceramic coating.
