I’m pretty excited for it. I don’t have much free time to sit and peruse the forum anymore so when a good build or a thread with good pics and an interesting truck comes up, wether as TOTM or featured, I thoroughly enjoy it. I hope TOTM garners more attention to the forum itself as well. The faceplant group can be utterly painful sometimes.

In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.
I’ll have to take a picture of my Rangers “good side”

He has everything else.
I'm working on collecting 13 RBVs so that I could in theory be on every page of the calendar including the cover.

I have life goals.

In a dark garage, with your eyes closed, facing the other direction?
Hey. The front half of the passenger side is still relatively original and dent-free.

That front cover requires bribery.

TOTM was my baby for many years. Glad to see it's coming back.

Shameless plug for myself but yes I do have two first gen Explorers. My '92 is the cool one, the '94 is kind of a rusty shitbox.

I'd love to enter my stepside truck in the contest too.

Toonces drives a Ranger . . . . just not very well.

Nice Explorers.

Here's my shameless plug.

A pair of camo '94s- a green one for the summer, and a white one for winter. (Too bad, though, that it rarely snows down here, but when it does I'm ready).

A first gen Explorer Sport ain't nuthin' but a Ranger with a fancy camper shell on it.

thanks. Yours are way nicer than either of mine. This is my 94, it’s just a rusty beater that I use for pushing junk around the yard.
