Aw come on now you gotta stay for a while to get a feel for it. Going on 22 years myself




(and yes its pretty toasty right now.)

dude i did not relize you were from ther...my post whore rival from the last forum..how far are you from the seguin area?

I live in San Antonio about 20 min. away from Seguin. If you need help finding the truck (getting there that is) I could help you out. I would look but it'd be too tempted to purchase one... can't do that these days. A/C is a must pretty much. Things will start cooling off in a month possibly but it'll still be blazing hot during the day for the most part. However, I still wear jeans/pants all year around pretty much . Good luck with your hunt.

Google tells me about 300 miles... I'm just about due east of San Antonio. Looks like your going to be in a nice part of TX, San Antonio is a reaaaally nice city if its the same as I remember it from when I was a kid

When ya git there, be sure to try out one of the South's great delicacies- possum on the half-shell. There ain't no place in the world that knows how to fix armadillo like Texas.

Whats this got to do with Rio Linda?

The resnicks in that town are a bit like the ones in Rio Linda, CA.

Why are you bashing on Rio Linda? I waterski out there. The water is a little shetchy and I am not sure what grows out there but hey its still fun.

Texas is great man. A lot of us here are friendly, and then there are some that aren't. So what if we all have guns here? What's the big deal? I don't, but I know how to shoot. There aren't any more crimes here than NY or Washington, especially.

The MOIST heat is the bitch. I was talking to a grad student the other day...it gets 125* in Egypt & Sudan, but it's all dry and not bad. It's the humidity in Texas that will get ya. Sliding rear windows and a a 45+ mph A/C is sufficient...

Best buds from Seguin. Nice place, a lil smaller than the cty that butts against it, but a lot bigger than other small Texas towns. Nobody wants old 80's rangers here...good luck!

I'm about 2-3 hrs from you. A 3 hour drive isn't bad...you can drive an entire day in one straight direction and STILL not be out of the damn state. When a destination becomes 4 hours or longer, then it's a "drive" (well, to me anyways). More spacious than Maine, less clustered than the NE area, and a li'l bit browner since we're closer to the border. Oh, and there's people here that are crazzzzzzzy and in love with Texas. You'll see/understand later...

Look us all up sometime when ya get here...

I wish we had a Texas emoticon...

Texas has Rangers

If you get to Northeast Texas looking for a truck, give me a yell.
(Longview, Marshall area)
I have many first gens spotted for sale around here.
I have just found a 4X4 87 with no motor that may be a deal.
And a couple other good body but bad motor deals.
Even found a ext cab 2.9 auto with a wiring fire...truck is free...title is 100 bucks!

If I had more time I would have snapped these up.
I bought my first Ranger a year ago and worked on it for 4 days.
At a gas station a fellow offered a grand more than I had in it and suddenly I had no truck.
I have had 6 Rangers since then.
Rust has been a problem on 1 of them.
And this was on the top and hood of a black STX that the sun killed the paint.
