Coming along nicely.......I'm sure you've got paint left over....tackle the bumper. It's not as bad as you might think. In my opinion, taking apart the grill and Ford emblem was much worse than the bumper
Because of Road Rash, I'm afraid to just scuff the chrome bumper and paint it. I'd rather sandblast the chrome OFF and prime/paint it for better life expectancy!
Here's a better shot of my '07 Ranger - that grille is from the STX 4X2 Model. I bought it from Ford and installed it myself.
The 4X4 Sport trucks came with the grille that had bars everywhere... UGLY!
Haha, I got nothing against a gasser, but it's not gonna be fun up mountains with 18k behind me...

I'll tell you what Guys... I am pretty impressed with this 6.2 gasser! I've been driving a 2008 6.4l Powerstroke since February of 2009. I CARRY a Truck Camper with it, not tow - the new truck camper is 3400 lbs loaded. The 6.4 carried it from May until October... I traded it in for the 2015 6.2 and the only difference I've noticed (and some of that is climbing through the mountains up in New Hampshire), is there's more money in my wallet from the difference in price between Diesel and Gasoline. Don't second guess this 6.2 - the 5.4 was a totally different story. My 2007 Ford Ranger pulled better then a 2008 5.4l Super Duty! Seriously Guys...

I've driven a 6.2 and I do believe you. But big difference between 3400 and 18000 pounds. If I had less camper, I'd consider it. But I do like a diesel...

The debate continues again. 6.2L is far better than those garbage 6.0L diesels. 6.0s sell around here for nothing because no one wants these.
Cute little truck.
Correct, not a fan of white fleet trucks and probably the worse diesel engine Ford built. Someone had to buy these trucks. Just not me. Reason I have the 4.6 over 5.4. I spend my money wisely with proper research and education.
Yeah Baby!
