    I bought a brand new 96 Ranger STX. Biggest POS vehicle I ever wasted money on. 6000 miles and traded it in.
    Vibrations, electrical issues, water leaks, 6 mpg, none of which the Grand Wizards at Ford could fix.

    You know, I was looking for that. I already have the smoked film on my Marauder, but I was thinking of getting the clear on my other cars. Can't seem to find it now for some reason. Did you order it recently or a while ago?

    Ok, I'm an idiot. I was looking in the wrong place on the Xpel site. But here's a photo from 2016 shortly after I got the tinted film installed.

    I have my son's old '98 Ranger, standard cab, 5 speed manual, 3.0l. Over 202k miles on it. Added power windows and door locks. Rebuilt the HVAC system. Replaced the timing chain. Has been a good DD.

    Looking to get a 2005 extended cab, 5 speed auto, 4.0 with 72k miles or a 2002 extended cab, 4x4, 4.0, 5 speed auto with 92K miles this weekend.

    If you were referring to the clear headlight film from X-pel, here's the link. http://www.xpel.com/headlight-protec...rcury/Marauder

    Took it to the Christmas lunch party at work yesterday and to dinner tonight.

    It’s been sleeping out in the cold garage since mid October and alllllmost started up. I knew by the sound of the fuel pumps this was going to be a definite maybe.. I was lazy and didn’t hook up the tender this year. I was surprised it had enough juice to turn over (slowly) for a few seconds. Quick jump and off we went.
