Sorry to beat this question to death but I couldn't find an applicable answer to my question.
I am interested in getting a 2005 Ranger Regular Cab manual and can't make up my mind on the 2.3 or the 3.0.
Gas mileage is a factor to me because gas is $4.50 a gallon in San Diego right now. I would like to do some light off roading and maybe take it out to the desert (Ocotillo Wells). When it is raining out I like to find an empty parking lot and learn car control and I am wondering if the 2.3 has enough power to slide around in the rain and mess around in the desert. Is the 3.0 worth sacrificing mpg's for more torque.
Thanks in advance and sorry for asking the 2.3 vs 3.0 question again.
