alright first of all i'd like to say hi to everyone again! first time back since the host switched.
now my delema, i'm buying a new 08 ranger and i'm buying an XLT reg cab short box with a 2.3 and a manual trans. ford won't let me have a 3.73 with a posi unless i get an auto. now i'm a boilermakers aprentice and i've herd of some hairy roads up north to some sites in the winter and everyone has told me to reconsider and buy a 4x4. but i don't want to because of the price and milage that comes with the 3 and 4.0. so i want your opinion on buying and installing a locker and if that would give me enough to make it through some dense snow and just your general opinion. i was thinking of maybe buying a set of steelies and mounting some 31 micky's on them for better traction if it gets bad.
thanks Jeremy
