so when is a good time for us to get together for the next meet?? any suggestions??

how about a day where there's not 8 inches of snow on the roadways, lol, j/k. I'm game for whenever, maybe like april sometime?

Somewhere warm!

I would be hoping after or during college spring break...

Well The only Time you guys are going to see me is at Autorama 2004. Feb 27th-29th.. you guys wanna do it on a Warm day where everyone can clean things up? That way we can stand out side and gather thoughts on each others Trucks.. But ill show with or without the Truck! work permitting. Start Ford Tomorrow soo hard to say my shift.

Hows April 10th (sat) sound?? At hooters in Taylor.. Easy to find too. For those of you out of town!... like i said about im game for anywhere.. What happened to the Cabin idea also??? Mid summer sounds better for that tho. Warmer water

I'm down for that, I like breasts.. I mean they have good wings. Anytime, hopefully the truck is on the road, should be.

were you in the autorama last year when i was? i thought i seen you truck there but if not theres one damn close to it but i looks a little more pep boys special.:E

april 10th sounds good for me...

suggestion: how about the hooters in lansing?? if not, taylor-tucky is alright for me...hehe

corey, the best place to do dounuts at is on haggerty just south of van born. theres a huge parking lot with no light posts. atleast two hundred yards by fifty yds. theres two wharehouses that hide the lot from the road (on the west) and the freeway on the east. i hope we get more snow before i go back to good ol ferris!

I like Taylor better, considering there are multiple expressways not far from it. Also it seems a little more central than going up to Lansing. Just my 2 cents... but I am game for just about anywhere...

alot of people know that spot on haggerty... i know some guys that do stuff on there bikes up there i'm down for whatever

April 10th sounds good. Hopefully I'll have everything done early on the the truck this year for a change and can actually drive it around and put some miles on it.

Rangeron17s, your working at Ford? What plant? and shift?

Damn Tribal, you had my hopes up when I saw "Imlay City" I want to see the PMA truck again :bawl: In any case...

This is turning out to be a crazy lookin meet... lots of ppl and such... lets just not change the date at the last second or time :E

well you know that me and MXracerCam (aka Dave) are wanting lansing!!! :E

at any rate April 10th works for me, I will STFU about the times and dates ;)

dunno witch truck you will see, it will be one of the three below lol

Damn Khaos, what, you don't think my truck would look as good as PMA's j/k :) . You know I have lived in Imlay City my whole life and have never seen or heard of PMA til this past summer. And I still have yet to see that truck in person or around town(after it was finished).

You know I could swing a lansing meet too, either way I'm going to try to be at this meet.

TribalSplash:::
Detroit Parts; Midnights...

Custom99::: Yeah the Pep Boy special was mine! But its sitting bagged, Custom painted, and plenty more mods... dont wanna ruin the excitement for Alex when he see's it at autorama LOL.. Big changes Interior/Exterior & Bed... you guys will see.. that 99-Current class is looking good for me this year... Cant wait!!

Everyone else im down where ever you want to have the meet!

april 10th sounds good to me.... just let me know where u guys plan on having it at...... i hope on having my truck fixed and maybe even lowered by then

Rangeron17s: are you in it this year? iam not to much stuff going on i just bought a house and work cant find the time this year but i will be back and that bumber looks sweet

sounds like a good day to me! keep everyone updated if this or a similar day are set :king:

Yeah Im in Autorama 2004.... Thats the only Trophy i missed last year and i Want one for the collection!! lol. after that a magazine and i met my goals for the truck... one last thing i wanna do is drive on Daytona Beach with it.. then its a hand me down to family and Start a new project....

well i guess its best then for you if i dont enter you know for your trophy collection. just playin,but last year a s/c s10, lowerd plain as hell nothing else done beat us. so i really dont like the way they run it there. i was way in the back with all off the bkes and **** and correct me if iam wrong but you were on the waiting list and got a better spot then i did and i was kind of pissed and that why i never talked to you and called it pep boys but it actualy pretty nice looking. we will have to cruise gratiot in the summer

Not to be off topic or anything but how do you get into autorama?
I went to autorama last year and don't remember seeing either of your rides there. I have some buddies that had thier trucks in it last year, the 2 big monster super duties, I'm sure you guys remember those.
When is autorama this year anyway?

well the one in Grand Rapids is next weekend :beer:

our club is hoping to have a body dropped old school S-10 on 20's there :nuts:

taylor is way too south for me to go (@ 3 hrs...). anywhere a little more central?? ;)

you just enter you have to send in photos and if they pick you your in and those big fords have the same bed cover that i do but mine is the origanal first one those are the only other trucks i know that have them.

AUTORAMA::

Feb 27th-29th Fri-Sun. 10am-10pm.

Entry::: www.autorama.com Jan. 27th is the cut off to have photos and an app. along with money to them.

Side Note:: Autorama is all POLITICS!!!
Sh*t won last year that was Stock. Glad S3 took that over for the 95 and newer cars. THEY know whats hott. Yeah gratiot is tight but Redlines meet on Friday nights is cool too. 11 and inkster i believe.

rangeron17s-

i tried to look at your website, but it opened up as a "pay to do surveys" thingie-whats goin on? :king:
o yea another thing-
i dont remember, but do they have a project vehicle area in the autorama? im gonna have my truck pretty tore up by then, it would be cool to bring it down their for show so people can check out what im doin to it! :king:

Hey guys, since I am gunna go out on a limb here and why don't we just meet where we did last time? I mean no one really had a problem gettin' there and it was right off the freeway. Just a thought, plus there was hella parking there and I dunno if Taylor has that much parking, then again I rarely go there and don't remember. Oh well just a thought. Sorry if it leads to confusion.

Jeff

Autorama Wont take anything unless its Show ready... no under construction is allowed.... kinda dumb, but you can see what there tring to do. its alway a nice turn out..

Someone know anything between Lansing and Taylor.? we could meet in the middle.. just another thought..

only thing thats in the middle (and worth our while to go to ) is ann arbor, yepsi, or brighton... other than that its just country. but im up for a lil hooters action, oh well we got time to figure it out:beer:

this is just an idea, but there is this really good resteraunt in fowlerville called fowlerville farms, its right off 96....got a huge parking lot, pretty close to in between for everyone, GREAT FOOD (esp. breakfast) plus there tons of non busy roads for crusising dragging etc.....just an idea...:king:

sounds very interesting... only if I could remember where fowlerville is lol...

first exit past howell on I-96.... even brighton would be an ok (i.e. somewhat central) meeting place...

fowlerville farms kicks ass, I love they're food! :drool:

Here it is guys!!!! DownTown Brighton.. by the movies and all that. Roads Great for attention from the Country Girls LOL!!! And i think theres red robins and like 4 other places.. and TONS & TONS & TONS of parking everywhere.. that road is all parking... Let me know how that sounds... just another idea its only a 45 to 60min drive for me so im game.

there is alot of stuff off grand river. from what i remember there is an ouback, red robin, and chillis.

what would be tight is if everyone from the east side could meet up and caravan down. it would look awesome with like 10 rangers drving down 96

Yeah I agree, well rock, Paper Scissors for a spot so we can al start gearing up for it.

This is turning into a pretty bad ass idea... Now the only thing I was gunna say is...

Is everyone going to be able to make it considering Easter is the following day. I know for sure I'm not going anywhere and my parents said "Go have fun", but anyway... just makin sure about the 10th.

Fowlerville, or Brighton is good... Brighton is coo, there is an arcade I used to hit up in Brighton after I had hockey games out there... It's all fun and games. I am stoked even more about this meet.

there is a billiards pool hall that is prety nice that is just west of town on grand river

my vote goes for brighton...but i have yet to go to a hooters w/ rps, so yeeeeah. i dunno :confused:

I like Hooters.. wish we could go there, they really do have good food. I'm up for anything.

i game any where we decide, hooters would be cool never been there before

My vote is for Brighton, since it's more centralized and I am sick of these surrounding cities... Hooters is iight, I met a girl that works there, she's iight ;) I just can't remeber how much parking they got, I do know it's not a whole hell of a lot.

So Brighton or Fowlerville for me.

hehe, Im not dead, just workin like a crazy M.F.er... Whereever you want to meet ill come just get it straightened around and post the final decision.

Im down with Brighton.. we will have alot more to do then look a sets of tits all night.. ( BUT i woundnt mind doing so)) But i think Parking wise and making it central so its fair for everyone Brighton has my Vote... What you guys think 12pm again?? just need a Date?? and one wanna pick a good date??a Sat. i think would be better!

well hey fella's whats shakin, im not going nowhere until i get some new meets we got 11" of snow an my ranger's tires are so bald, well thats my fault but just the same im game for the 10th an hooters, thats talkin my language, i dunno about that red robin lol damn goofy named food.

Id be up for the meet The 10th. But I need to know were brighton is and stuff. Right now im 2 hours away from lansing.
And i think my friend with his 2002 ranger will be coming too if this goes through. let me know. NATE

Hell yeah nate I'm up for it.

What 10th? Feb, March, April?

That is not a good question to be asking this group :E ... We'll end up changing something in the final hours lol... It's just how we do... A general time and date would be good...

Ok heres some thought. Spring ""starts"" March 20th So we should be getting a few nice days around the first of april. Why dont we plan For April 3rd (week before easter) at 1pm and if rained out that Sunday April 4th in downtown Brighton. has a nice location and a good 3-4 miles of road to cruise. and the game room thing. ( someone mentioned that i think) Whats everyone think? or like to change?

the 3rd works for me if we keep that plan i can bring Carl From PMA motorsports with me

I'd be tight... and fun... that PMA truck is f*ckin sick... Really coo people too

Hey, I'd be up for a meet at the beginning of april. Count me in :) I hope we come up with a date soon, i need to ask for those days off at work.

PS: If anyone of you is interested, i've got a few parts that i'd be willing to part with for a price...

-7.5" rear end with 3.73 gears, may need to be re-shimmed
-Traction-Lok (rebuilt) unit ready to go into a 7.5 rear end
-A complete 2.5 engine (no a/c, needs wiring harness)
-A complete A/C system out of a 98 (compressor, condensor, evaporator canister, a/c core, lines)
-some other stuff, i'll hafta make a list...

ok then whats the plan.... i kinda need to know its, kinda hard for me to get a weekend off

hey how do i join your club??

u talkin tha national ford ranger club

I just realized I got tickets to go see Trapt and Finger Eleven at Harpos on the 3rd... So I cannot stay too long since it's up in Brighton and I gotta drive back here... Oh well it's all good... We need to get a time and all that figured out and stick to it so people can take work off and what not...

98FourCyl i wanna know more about that 2.5 your parting with send me some info at bonnevilleguy123@aol.com.

anyone got a lower valance that i can buy off them when we come to the meet.... i dont care if its the 4x4, explorer, or the regular one...my truck needs one

rangerwit4banger, im assuming your talkin about the meet thats scheduled, if so, its just a bunch of us mi rps'ers that'll get together...ur welcome to come...we need tons of rangers to show up

btw, whats the final date and time???

Well RedRanger!
your post, so what did you have in mind?? i think the 3rd, at 1230-1 sounds right.. anyone else?

oh, haha dont point the finger at me rangeron17's hahaha, what ever anyone wants is fine...

like you said earlier april 3rd in brighton is a good date...but where in brighton???

i havent been down there in over two months, so im drawing a blank with a place for us to go...sooo, thats up to someone else :tongue:

sounds good to me

That sounds good to me, although i have no idea where you guys are talking about. If anyone that is going lives in the area of the detroit zoo hit me up.

Bill

04fx4, brighton is where 96 and us23 come together/meet/intersect. so its about a 30-45 minute drive for you, depending on how fast you drive.

if you consider 275and m14/96 close, thats where I am

I'm so lost on WTF is going on wit this damn meet. Please be sure to make a post " FINAL MEET DECISION " so I know when where and how to get there. Peace out.

^ EXACTLY ^

ok, so thus far this is what we have:

Place: Brighton (where in it not sure yet)

Time: April 3rd between 12-1PM

I'm not too familiar with the place so when we decide where like post the address or something that way we can all jump on mapquest or something and get the directions.

sounds good the 3rd works out better for me anyway. NATE

the third it is :king:

Sounds good to me

sweeeeeeet. ill be there. im only like 20 minutes from brighton. my truck will be outta the shop...but prolly not bagged yet. :(

You lucky sun of a gun 20 min drive. i got a 2.5 hour drive. O well your truck is sweet. see yall there. NATE

BTW rangeron17s i saw ur truck at autorama looked reall good...you win anything? secondly, pm me let me know how you got ur sponsors....wanna find one for rims after i finish what im doin (lowering a lot, shaved, etc)
