Its stock, but it still keeps up with the big boys in mild mud

first gen all the way i dont like the plactic head lights in the gen 2

Since I have two, can I vote gen 2 twice. The look, the styling,the dash, and the ease of upgrades. Freakin love it

Other than the ease of upgrades, all those are what ruins the 2nd gen (just my opinion).

I don'y care for the dash on the gen 1's.I've had one and just despised it. I've had 2 gen 2 b2's and 2 gen 3 rangers. Love the dash. Very simple, and its not flashy at all like someone said it was.

If I had a gen one,it would be an 84 or 85 and it would get a v-8 and round headlights.

I'm not totally against them, just like my gen 2's

i think the gen 2 dash looks to soccer-mom-ish.. lol

gen2 dash feels cheap and plasticy too me... i almost bought a gen 2 ranger out of desperation and planned on ripping the dash and front clip off if i had bought it.

1st gens all the way

I like the first gen's. They look more like the original bronco. Just my 2 pennies.

The ONLY thing I don't like about my gen II is it would take a lot of work to add round headlights!

The interior is very comfortable n I prefer the "soccer mom" dash over the gen I. And seeing how 90%percent of the time I'm inside the truck behind the dash that weighs pretty have IMO. I only have to look at the non-round headlights when I'm walking up to it.

Gen1 all the way. Gen2 front end looks too formal.
Here's mine.

My .02: I love both. My B2 was a gen1, my ranger was gen2, and my explorer is gen1 (gen 2 ranger) I love the exterior on a gen 1 hands down, but love the gen2 interior. If I could have my B2 back (favorite RBV) with my explorer's interior and running gear (4.0/M5OD)... WOW

HANDS DOWN.......1ST GEN.!!!!!!
