Hello from Ohio
 
Hi all,
Seems like there are quite a few new members from OH in here!

I joined the forum a couple months back after buying a 2009 Ranger XLT 4x2. I'm new to Rangers, but not to Fords--my previous truck was a 1985 F-150 4x4. Had that truck about 7 years; while it ran quite well, the rust monster finally caught up with it... :dead1:

I'll probably keep the truck pretty much stock, but this site looks like a good source of information to keep thing running well. Here are a couple of photos:

Welcome from a fellow Ohioan. Where are you at in Columbus? I run around there pretty frequently. Campus (OSU), Hilliard, and Grove City are pretty much the main areas I drive around in. You can't miss my Ranger lol.

x2. Nice truck, and great color choice!

Wow, thanks for the warm welcome everyone. I appreciate all the comments! :beerchug:

I can honestly say that I like something unique about the trucks of everyone who has posted. Hmm, now I have ideas...there go my plans for keeping it stock!

I'm located in the general vicinity of Port Columbus; that's kinda stretching it since I'm closer to Sunbury RD, but if someone doesn't know that side of town, the airport is a safe bet to get them in the general area! I'll keep an eye out for your truck...if I see a Ranger-shaped shadow blocking out the sun, I know who it is now. :biggrin:

FWIW, the official name for the color of my truck is Redfire Clearcoat Metallic, should anyone be curious. Frankly, that color sold me on the truck--I was looking at Rangers casually, but saw that color sitting there in the sunlight and said "ah-ha, that's it!"

Here's a close-up of the paint:
