Pine Ridge Mall-Center Court: Slammed ProStreet Ford Ranger

It was the weekend of January 13th & 14th, 2024, the Pine Ridge Mall in Chubbuck, Idaho, held its inaugural indoor Winter/New Year automobile show.

The family that built this minitruck claims they paid a whopping $500 for the first generation Ranger (they don’t say how much it cost them to re-build it). They even used homemade interior parts. Video by me, 13JAN2024:

All the way from Connecticut?

Due to some instigation (possibly by a secret society of conspiratorial automotive Sith Lords posing as Jedi Masters), the Pine Ridge Mall in Chubbuck, Idaho, held its inaugural indoor Winter/New Year automobile show.

It was the weekend of January 13th & 14th, 2024.  Video by me:

Pine Ridge Mall-Center Court: Inaugural indoor Winter/New Year Car Show!

Due to some instigation (possibly by a secret society of conspiratorial automotive enthusiasts), the Pine Ridge Mall in Chubbuck, Idaho, held its inaugural indoor Winter/New Year automobile show.  It was the weekend of January 13th & 14th, 2024.

One of the possible conspirators, practicing his Jedi Mind Tricks on some mall-goers!

I worked for the original owner of the Pine Ridge Mall during the few years before it was sold to the second owner, an evil global corporation based in Chicago, and we used to have car and RV displays during the warmer months of the year.  But, the evil second owner killed everything off!  The Pine Ridge Mall is on its third owner, supposedly a family company based in Saint Louis, Missouri, which specializes in bringing back depressed malls. The third owners have been working hard to slowly bring in new businesses, and they gave their blessings on this inaugural Winter/New Year indoor auto-show (with a possibility for more car shows!).

This is why people in the United States refer to the rear storage area of a car as a ‘trunk’.  In the early days you could buy a rack to mount your ‘steamer trunk’ (used mainly on steam-trains or ocean going steam-liners) on the back of your automobile, hence the trunk.

On 21OCT2023, a big pre-Halloween car show/USMC Reserve’s Toys-4-Tots drive/Trunk or Treat was held in the Old Town area of Pocatello, Idaho.

Video by me:

Before the invention of off-road four-wheel-drives, and when most roads were not paved, people used these two-wheel-drives ‘off-road’ almost daily.
