The car started to stink like dead things with the German shepherds in the back, so it was time. Now I've gotten it in Black, with black nudge-bar and towbar and black rims. I'm wondering how to give it a nice accent in some other color. Maybe a subtle line on the grill like a GTI?

Any ideas, throw em!

The black is special order, so not receiving it immediately. Not sure how long the wait time will be. Will post pics when I get it with them stinky dogs on the back :)
Still have to decide on which canopy, but I heard Andycab is probably the best option.

I got XL canine campers from takealot that I'm going to put in the back, which should be comfortable for them dogs. The back is rubberized though so should be easy to clean.

Is this grill an option or is it for a specific model? I've seen it a few times on the road.

Pics yes.

And maybe get some heavy duty plastic mats for the back this time. ;)

Dont bother with changing your car for the dogs.. Change the dogs for your car :)

I recommend getting them onesies (or veet bath) and little shoes hahahaha

Was wondering the same thing. Someone said that it's an American thing. Though I also saw it a few times.

Go drive an Amarok, then cancel your order. :p

The biggest reason why I did not go VW again is because there's no dealer near me that gives good service. I always have to fight for them to do the service properly with our Tiguan.

Won't it be a bitch if Ford is even worse? :]
The second thing that swayed me is the Amarok looks awesome. But put on a canopy, and the AMarok transforms into a mongrel.

I've seen that, no idea. Looks pretty sweet. I want to go for subtle pimp though, so no purple hats and canes.

Are you also getting the special license plates just like Sipho Maseko ?

Agree. Was toying between the Ranger and the Amarok in April and decided the Amarok was better despite the Ranger having a lower cost point. Also, I'd rather drive an extra 25 or even 50 km's to a dealership than touch a Ford again.

Black is the softest paint. I hope this is not doing any real work horse duty.

Ranger is a nice buy.
