if i had a use for a ranger i would have one, but pretty much every big purchase i make i pretty much allways say to the wife yea but i dont have a ranger, i bought a house in nw nd using that.
ive bought all my toppers from new vision in grand forks. always get side opening windows, and shelf 2/3rds, pretty much the only way i can get all my stuff in a 5.5 foot box.
there is no Miracal cure for a 9 year old dog besides a puppy to take over the work. I have a 9 year old male lab that will hunt hard all day but can hardly walk for the next week. he gets a a 20 minute hunt every now and then.
