this is the truck i use as a work horse. I bought her brand new with 5 miles on the clock. She now has well over 151K on it and ive been all over the eastern part of the country in her. Shes a 4 cylinder automatic with almost no replaced parts save a timing belt, sway bar links, a couple sets of front tires and brakes, the resistor for the fan motor andconventional oil changes every 2500K with quaker state. I expect this truck to do another 150K with no problem shes the best ive ever owned
Ive abused this truck on a regular basis twice i made the trip from MA to NC with a truck cab in the bed once down south with it once up north theres a shot of that too

originally when i bought the truck i bought a LEer cap for it but that became a pain to load and unload so eventually i lost the cap and put in the Craftsman box . From the dealer i got the under rail bedliner, the window guards and bug flector. My son put a JVC radio with a cd player in the dash but i like the old radio better so im gonna re install it and i have XM satellite radio in it too
theres a Brooks and Dunn tailgate party license plate on the front ( cause I love my country music and sometimes i have a CB antenna on it and i have a junky Realistic TRC474 40 channel CB
The truck has towed a 20 ft boat all over and once i towed a full size truck with no motor back from the MD PA border ( it was on a uhaul tow dolly)
future plans include doing the body work on it , and rebuilding the suspension with upgraded rear leaf springs, a ladder rack and a real tow hitch. For performance im prolly gonna put in a K&N , upgrade the exhaust, and maybe some kind of chip..so i get a little more power on hills when travelling through the mountains upstate NY.. thoughts or opinions

Nice. Good to see a truck doing some work these days. Ranger's are one of the toughest little trucks out there. Keep up the beatings on it.
