    2019 Ford Ranger Rig Build

    Looking great! We just picked up a 2019 Ranger XLT FX4 . I ran across this thread while looking for rack systems. Your mods all look great together.

    Sold the 2011 Jeep JKU and purchased a 2019 Ford Ranger XLT FX4. The Wrangler, while great off-road, just didn't have the power to tow our adventure trailer. The Ranger so far has met our needs for power and off-road capabilities but we haven't put it to a very difficult test yet.

    Corpus Christi Area Meetup

    A lot of the local Jeep and 4x4 clubs meet on different parts of the beach around here. That's easy enough and only cost is the yearly beach parking permit. Because of my job(s) I wouldn't be able to do it monthly but once every 3 months would probably be easy enough.

    Overland Rig Wants Vs. Needs

    Every time I've built out an off-road rig, I first focus on recovery. Lift and rubber (within reason) are part of your recovery. After that, it's hi-lift, maxtrax(or similar), recovery points, wench and lockers. Comfort, convenience and cool-factor come later. A guy once told me, "I never get...

    Corpus Christi Area Meetup

    Do you guys have any suggestions on a time frame and a possible location to meet? With all the holiday stuff and short notice, December is probably not good for most people. We could shoot for January or February. As for a location, if anyone knows of a good Ice House or even Rudy's BBQ wouldn't...

    Corpus Christi Area Meetup

    I know there aren't a lot of Corpus area members but would anybody be interested in a Meetup? It wouldn't have to be monthly but quarterly would be nice. Sound off if you would be interested in that. 2011 JKU named "Klack", Smittybilt XRC front and back,9500 lb synthetic, Overlander RTT, KMS...

    Post-Harvey: (South) Texas Roll Call

    I know I'm dropping in late on this but I live in Aransas Pass. Pretty much ground zero between us and Rockport. Thankfully our house did okay. I work for the city so I've been pretty busy since the storm. The news media didn't do a great job of showing all the damage here. Our town is...
