4 cylinder 5-speed Ranger towing a Cadillac

[atikovi]

Thought I'd make my first post showing this '96 Ranger towing an '09 Cadillac. Total weight well over 4,000 pounds and thats with just a ball in the bumper and 4 cylinder 5-speed truck.

that's a strange looking dolly the car is on

It's a Tow-N-Stow. It's no wider than the car you are towing and you can take it apart and put it in the trunk when finished.

That must come standard with every new GM purchase.

i agree
also they should include the list of nearby Ranger owners

i'm proud of that truck for you. i can't believe you didn't rip the bumper off. but then again the 4cylinder couldn't have put that much stress on it haha.

What rear gears does the truck have?


Nice truck, btw. I've got a 95 in the same color

What was wrong with the Caddy?

 

[atikovi]

The Cadillac dealer wouldn't do the warranty work and wouldn't put the engine back together either on my '09 CTS unless I paid them ransom. I decided to get it out of there and fix it myself.

Rangers are stout little trucks.

4-Banger Rangers rock!

It should. That'd be better than on-star because you wouldn't have to start paying for it after a year.

That's pretty piss-poor service. What happened to it.

It needs the timing chains replaced but because the previous owner didn't use Mobil1 they found the engine had a lot of sludge and claimed improper maintainance.

the Caddy was comfortable and, more importantly, stable. As for fuel economy, I averaged 14.2 MPG with the trailer hooked on. check the battery for the electric brakes and its cadillac parts.
