I have a few cars that I miss but no rangers. If I ever got rid of mine, it'd only because of some MAJOR MAJOR structural damage of some kind. I've had this thing the longest and I've got a lot of sentimental times wrapped up in it.

As far as missing a sold ranger, I have a friend who owned a '90 Ranger back in high school and I miss that truck a lot. It was fun being stupid teenagers in that old thing. When I got mine, it was crazy how much burning oil off the engine (2.9!) and cloth seats brought back memories!

He had an 01 that he recently got rid of. Great truck too!
 
I have only has 2 rangers....... first ranger:
1988 S model short bed
2.0 4cyl,rebuilt it myself, ran good, K&N air filter and MSD 6a ignition box to bypass the duraspark module, flowmaster exhaust
5 speed, centerforce clutch
235/60/14 road huggers on chrome sawblades
s-10 blazer bucket seats,grant GT steering wheel,herculined bed, pedal covers, piaa driving lights.....no rust, no oil leaks.... got in 3 wrecks and was broken into twice...... first wreck a truck pulled out in front of me....if I would have had another 10 feet I wouldnt have hit him.......second wreck I got rear ended....was a lowered honda.....he got the worst of it...can of black spray paint fixed mine... third one was a hit and run... car came around the corner at an intersection in the rain and hit my LF fender... I was 3rd in line at a left hand turn lane... other car drove off......a buddy and I saw the car later and got some revenge on it with a 73 f250

yup it was a sharp truck... a lil underpowered with the 2.0.....an old boss of mine that I run into every so often says he still sees it... the guy I sold it to lives in his neighborhood... my current ranger is a work in progress....going a different way with this one...rat rod build........... the other rig I miss was a 1970 mustang grande coupe, 351W auto trans, jacked up in the back with wide tires, glasspacks, lakewood traction bars, gold with black vinyl top, black interior

I still have the only one I would have regretted getting rid of...bought a sold a couple others but they were just beaters. One more is a project that I don't plan on getting rid of for a while, I would like to at least finish it someday lol.
 
My first ranger, gave it to a good friend in need when I got my new to me one... great times in that old girl, with the whole "stupid teenagers" thing hehe.
 
my old truck and stang. I don't have any ranger to miss.
 
1st: 1986 Regular Cab Long-bed 2.3 4x4 Full Manual with the TK5 Traded it because my mom told me that if I wanted to drive I had to get an automatic.

Which brings me around to my next Ranger, got it like 3 days after my 18th birthday and have been driving a stick since.:thefinger:

2nd: 1992 Regular Cab Short-bed 2.3 2wd Manual Traded it because I *thought* I wanted a Mustang. They're pretty much useless around here. Especially with a 3" drop. Still had fun with it though so not too bad.
