    Hey James. Just wanted to share something. I'm currently driving a 1988 Ford Ranger XLT. It's a humble truck, but it's got a lot of meaning to me. It used to belong to my Grandpa, who drove it to work at the paper mill for years. He, my Dad, and I used to ride around Mount Vernon, WA when I was very small. When he died a few years ago, the Ranger was passed on to my Dad. He used to pick me up from my apartment and we'd drive around town in the Summer. When my Dad passed last year, the truck sat at my Mom's for a few months, not being driven due to an issue with the transmission gear lever. One day I finally made myself jerry-rig and then take it around the block to run the engine and put some new gas in it. It somehow felt like I was back with my Grandpa and my Dad again. I've been driving it ever since. I'm currently (albeit slowly) working on getting it back to its original glory, and when it's finished I want to put it in a music video on my channel. In the 32 years it's been in my family, the only thing that ever stopped it from running was needing new spark plugs. I highly recommend one of these. I don't think I could ever sell this one though. Thanks for the nostalgia trip, James. Hope everyone is well and safe. We'll all get through this no matter how crazy it feels. ❤️

Very humble truck and so many memories of when i was growing up sitting in that passenger seat. I could never sell it , it will eventually be passed down to my kids if they want to keep it.
