I have been a Ranger fan since buying my first 1986 XLT 4x4 2.9 EFI from my (not then) father-in-law when I was 20 for $800. It was imported from the states to Canada and the odometer had clocked over twice!
I drove that truck through 9 circles of Hell while tree-planting and thus named her Virgil (I know it's a male name, but figured since Virgil was Dante's guide through Hell...)
My next Ranger was a '94 XLT 4x4 4.0 named Beatrice. She was okay, but she had some issues I was unable to fix so I passed her along.
Currently I drive a 1988 XLT 4x4 (you may notice a theme) 2.9 EFI named Malacoda. This was an abused little work truck with some scrapes and dings from the previous owner having an argument with a fence post.
But now she's mine and I'm doing the best I can to keep her alive!
