Well as most of you know, the Ranger has been for sale due to +1 in the family (baby). We needed two vehicles that could "safely" haul our child with a backseat, so I upgraded to my white 04 F150 Lariat. A local young couple (my age) pulled the trigger on the Ranger and will be gettting her today :( I am very sad to see a good friend go, BUT, she has been a good truck and I will miss her!

I feel your pain. I had to get rid of my 2002 2 yrs ago for a fuel efficient car ( wifes orders, not mine ). Now I have another Ranger and am happy once again. The wife, not so much because she says I love it more than her lol.

Welcome to F150 ownership. I miss the Ranger too, but the F150 definitely softens the blow. What motor is in the new rig?

Sorry to hear that....I had to get rid of my only means of transportation (a Harley) years ago for the same reason....cops won't let you pick up your 3 yearold from the daycare!

Anyhow...tell the new family to take care of the Ranger & YOU WANT 1ST DIBBS WHEN THE DECIDE TO SELL IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's okay, I haven't owned a Ranger since 2003! I'm still here though... haven't been kicked out yet even though I quit paying rent, heh. I still have my Mazda (one in the picture to the left) though, and still daily drive it. Civic sits in the driveway 'till I sell or trade the Mazda.

Sucks to see it go, but at least you are staying in the Ford family.

Awesome, I love it! Very clean looking truck man. BFG's look good on ANY truck.
