It's Still Going

I just wanted to share with Ford about how good one of their trucks is .In 2003 my fiance bought a 1994 Ford Ranger XLT 4×4 extended cab truck with around 90,xxx miles he added some extas it was a nice truck. A couple of years later he flooded the truck in a river he had to fix the transmission after that he rolled the truck and he had to fix the top and put on a new door he then just kinda gave up on the looks of the truck he has never really done anything major to the truck and rarely even changes the oil. The truck now has over 315,xxx miles and he still drives it he will pull his boat behind it to go fishing. I and our friends tease him and tell him his truck needs to be on a Ford commercial for being such a good truck. My father is a used car dealer and many of times he has used this truck as an example of how good Rangers are. My fiance is hoping someday he can afford to upgrade to a newer Ford truck but for now he will have to keep driving his 1994. I just thought this would be interesting to know about. Thanks for the great truck.

I have a 2002 F350 Lariat SRW CC 4x4 and have several long distance trips under the belt: NC to AZ, NC to FL, NC to PA, etc. etc. and pretty much every time, my left elbow gets to aching and has actually been rubbed raw from resting it on the same spot on the arm rest and top of the door panel... My idea is to have inconspicuous panel-type pop-outs in those locations that when removed, reveal a gel-type insert that cushions but still adequately supports my elbow during those long rides. It doesn't need to be squishy, just be a little softer and have a little more "give" than your average door panel material. Here's a little challenge for you... Go out to your vehicle and place your elbow in either of the places described and move it back-and-forth about an inch for 5 minutes or so to "simulate driving"... Still have skin on your elbow? How raw do you think it would be after a 28 hour / 2000 mile drive from NC to AZ?
Tired of aching / raw left elbow on long hauls...
