    What OBD II Scanner to use? '05 Ranger Edge, 2WD Stick Shift

    i got one off e-bay for very few $$. it was mailed from hong kong. works fine for reading just the basic generic codes and clearing that pesky CEL. check e-bay.

    whats your favorite "all terrain" tire

    wow that's something. sorry for what happened to you. i have been running on kumho a/t's for over 2 years now with zero problems and the tread is also holding up.... sounds like they are not very consistent so will cross fingers here, but sofar they have been a very good tire in my opinion...

    whats your favorite "all terrain" tire

    i've been running the kumho road venture at 51's for over 2 years now. no complaints about performance on wet or dry pavement and very very good in snow..they are snow/mountain rated. don't usually go off road so no good experience there. they replaced firestone destination a/t's which were also...

    Help purchasing, what do you guys think about this ranger?

    too bad no good rangers available but you were probably not the only one in the market for a rust free truck.... so they likely go quick if in good shape. that dealer with the gold one had some crazy idea about price for that condition. i presume i could not get anywhere near 6K for mine around...

    Help purchasing, what do you guys think about this ranger?

    good you are getting it inspected. keep in mind there are literally 1000's and 1000's of used vehicles on the market so don't be afraid to get tough with a dealer and be prepared to walk. you may be surprised at what kind of deal you can get. cash talks. unfortunately we both live in areas...

    Yes, another poor mileage 4.0

    70mph highway may not be the best for mpgs but on the other hand since you are in tampa the cold is not a factor applicable to you! i know up here in this freakin arctic weather we have my truck gets crap for mpg's, together with the lousy ethanol laced fuel making it even worse. if i get 15 mpg...

    Help purchasing, what do you guys think about this ranger?

    i guess i can comment since that is an exact replica of my truck minus the step bars and cap. check carefully the underside of all the doors for rust. it is prone to rust in those areas. otherwise the usual, check all hvac settings, brakes incl emergency brake and trans/4x4 operation. if you...

    Ranger Spare (donut vs full size)

    my 02 has the same size as yours 245 75 16's . the stock spare that is still underneath is a steelie that is a 15 i believe - they call it in the spec sheet "Limited Service Mini Spare Tyre" . i would be interested to hear if your 16 inch spare fits under the bed. for whatever it's worth i would...

    How old is this stupid tire.

    code at the end says '045' so it would be the 4th week of 1995. could it theoretically be that old Dirtman?
