Is it just me?
I was sitting in traffic the other day, and I noticed a newer Ranger with the power dome hood....

I've got an '03. My power dome hood looks more menacing than the newer power domes IMO.

They are. lol. The actual 'dome' part on 04's is the about the same height as the 01-03's, but the angle in which it 'kicks' up is alot shallower on 04+'s.

When and if I build my slammed truck, I will attempt to make a taller 01-03 powerdome cowl hood.

Idk.... a taller '01-'03 powerdome might not look as nice...

unless you made the upwards sweep a little longer too. (less steep of an angle if that makes sense)
