That is a nice truck, it would be fun to have.

I have never seen a dash like that though, usually it is the swirly wood or brushed metal looking plastic.

Toonces drives a Ranger . . . . just not very well.
Yeah, that looks like an electric brake controller. Dang it, I remember those straight-grain dashes from the days back at the dealership. Now I'm going to have to find one!

Man i would love to have that, i would simply install a small turbo (no big deal) and just run it. That would be so cool to have, not to mention the extra diesel!

good luck! wish i could get in on that. a dually kit would go good with the sound of the motor. i saw a ranger diesel once that had a turbo, dont know what year, it was also a 2wd std shift. i could have gotten it, saw it on a dealer lot after the owner had passed on. it had a ton of miles on it though and way too much body rot to be worthwhile buying.
