I think I have found my happy place. I plan on spending a considerable amount of time here, even if I stay parked

Just go Fast and Furious style and install a TV and some sort of console(PS or Xbox).

Ah, those are always a good choice. Nice and comfortable. Wouldn't wear in public though.

I have an iPhone mount on the windshield, a phone charger in the armrest and a tape-3.5mm adapter in the glovebox. Thats enough

The farthest from my bedroom I will go wearing them is in my truck, parked in front of my house

The Ranger is certainly a comfy truck to drive. Happy motoring.

So comfy, when it dies (its hopefully gonna last 15 more years) Im taking the seats and making a couch.

The Escape was my place of rest, it was an amazing experience, it was MINE, I even napped in the back with the tailgate window open, it was so comfy.

I actually might do that in the summer, My truck actually has a bed. I could keep a few blankets and pillows in the jump area and have a nap station. Its a good place to just do your own thing, to be truly alone

I don't know what it is about Fords, but I have always found they have very nice interior lights. Reminds me of an airport for some reason.

Ya, the lights are amazing, the dash actually has a dimmer dial.

Yup. My ford tempo has sweet lights too! Love that blue!

Reminds my of my F-250 gauges a little.. I've always thought of a car as one of the best places to just be alone and relax by yourself for a little bit, Sounds weird but the car is always for friend and place to take you in when everyone else isnt there. Like I've been going through some recent drama at home .. Where do I go ?? In my car for a drive or just somewhere to sit and think for a bit. Always loved that gen ranger by the way, great truck !

Awesome, thats nice. When did you get the driver's license? i never saw the post.
![]() 11/25/2014 at 03:02 |

I didnt, Im still legally required to drive with a licensed adult over the age of 21 (which is incredibly dumb because Im 21 and the majority of my friends are 21 or older, so I could just drive with them). My test is on sunday, Lets hope I pass. I kinda have to now, I bought a 5 speed V6 ford ranger before I got my drivers license

Im sure it will be no problem passing , and awesome find, and yes i saw the stick. Its just way more fun to drive. Some people give the excuse that it sucks on heavy traffic, but i dont see what is the big deal. I actually think its better, when you want or need to switch lanes and you need the power fast, youre prepared, when in an automatic, the gas/gearbox has a delay to respond. (except on my cousins BMW 328 2008) The gas feels very responsive, and its not even in sports mode.

I have some pretty bad ADD, I manage it without meds. If I took meds, I wouldnt be able to draw. But my ADD is very apparent when I drive, less so when I drive stick. I have trouble focusing on one thing if all of my attention span isnt being occupied, So driving an auto doesnt cut it.

That reminds me, ive seen lately A LOT of drivers on the road (not talking), worse, they are texting or watching the cellphone's screen... and i thought, there should be a thing about discontinuing automatic cars or some sort of thing to force people to be more focused on driving, and being unable to check their smartphones. It makes me very upset to see this, i sometimes do a full stop at a road crossing even if i dont have the stop sign, because people are careless, it has saved me from getting hit some times.
