They didn't paint the bumpers in 2005. If you had the SLT or Laramie, it was grey with the chrome accents.

No trailer brakes. The generator has a tounge brake that works pretty well. In a panic stop it will lock up the tires on the generator.... and I just take it really easy with the fork lift. Haven't warped the rotors yet. I used the Ranger to pull a 7500lb camper about 100 miles. That was plain stupid.

That's nut's!What was the tow cap on the ranger prolly not near as much as the Dak.
How'd you tie down the fork lift?

That must have gotten some interesting looks on the highway to say the least... I definitely wouldn't have driven near you

The rating on the Ranger was 5K. It's the red one in the attached photo. To make matters worse, it had the 3.0 liter flex fuel, not the 4.0. That motor was weak, but it was trouble free. The truck actually pulled it pretty well with the sway arms installed on the camper tounge. I think it was a 27 footer.

The fork lift rides in its own partially enclosed custom trailer.
