    Default First the virus and now this !!!

    Went out to the truck yesterday a.m. to start the Ranger up and when I went to open the door the handle snapped off !!!! I'm guessing the door was frozen and I was too aggressive trying to open it. Wish it had been the passenger side. Anyway I had to get to Soopers for a grocery pickup so I managed to get that done.
    When I got home and did some research I was happy to see a new METAL handle was only $6 and after watching a few you tube videos on how to do it I think I can manage the repair as soon as it gets warmer. Now back to your regularly scheduled virus thread. LOL

    I had an issue on my GMC. Tried to unlock it one morning (frozen), applied too much force, broke the cylinder. Fortunately it was on passenger side.

    Still broken.

    Yeah I'm going to wait for a warm day and tackle replacing it for just that reason. I believe I have everything I need but I know Murphy's Law very well haha

    This seems like one of those things that's easy to break, but when you take it to the shop to get it fixed, they want to charge you $800 for it.

    If there's nothing wrong with having to show an ID to buy a gun, there's nothing wrong with having to show an ID to vote.

    For legal reasons, that's a joke.

    Luckily I don't have to deal with a window crank with my model Ranger.
