I'm happy everything worked out better than you hoped. Best of luck with the new truck whenever it comes.
My trucks isn't just my first truck or Ranger, but first vehicle. I ditched it on New Years and have since put about $3000 in parts into fixing it. I know what its like to cry over a vehicle. No shame there bro.

I hated to look at those pics man. I know what you mean about it being like losing a close friend. I had a 2000 that my dad had helped me get 2 months before he died destroyed when a guy ran a red light right out in front of me. I had been to so many places and done so much with that truck that it really hurt to lose it but I did get my current truck out of the mess. Glad your both ok and cant wait to see what you get next!
