With help from Dennis and a lot of luck, I have managed to rebuild my gallery. The hardest thing I've had to get used to is the height of the Edge. My lowered '99 was 6" off the ground at the door and the Edge is 18". Even with the torsion bars the Edge rides better, but does not turn as well as the'99. I'm going to leave the suspension alone on this one. Check it out.

Need to get a new pic of yourself in that truck.

Where did you get that grill insert? Very nice.

Looks good.

I did a search for "Ranger grill" on Ebay. I don't recall the seller name, but it bolted right on over the stock grill with no cutting. If I can find the seller, I'll let you know. It was less than $100 for the three pieces.

I see you have a spray in bedliner. Which type is it? And are you happy with it's durbability? I'm looking into LineX, but the cost seems pretty steep.

You've got a good eye to spot that. Mine is a LineX. Base your cost on how long you expect to keep the truck. I had my previous truck for over five years and the spray-in still looked good. At under $400 for over five years, the spray-in on that truck cost me about $.20 a day.

Thank you. I got the bill yesterday for the telephone pole that wiped out my beloved '99, would you believe $4,558. It is hard to argue against a 150. They are great trucks. My son had a '98 that never gave him a minutes trouble and now he has an '04 SC Lariat that I really like. Much better performance than my Ranger.
