So long story short the 93 is getting too unreliable for the wife to drive as a DD for school and whatever else, so Thursday night we craigslist rangers and land on an 04 for sale where i work about 45min from home. Call the guy Friday, he comes by my work, we take a spin, i tell him im interested but 'gotta talk to the wife. Take it for another spin today and just couldn't find anything electrically or mechanically wrong. This is my 5th ranger...
The price reflected that it was in a roll over and as it turns out unbeknownst to the guy i purchased it from, the truck was also in a front end collision 8k miles into its life- according to carfax. The truck has 100,455 on it now. purrs like a kitten, all new fluids all around. no mods. forgot to get the door sticker to decode the options, but i think this has the torsen LS? anyhow, new battery and tires, so shes ready for winter!
im going to slap a tonau cover onto the bed that i have laying around just to clean it up a bit. its got some rusty chrome, some paint chips, and yes the bed is tweaked, but i can't believe how solid the drive is on this thing...
