This is for all RBV owners to tell how they were impressed with their vehicle in any which way.

Im only making this cause i was so impressed with my Ranger today. Not every day you can pull a tight curve at 130K ( suprisingly unintentional, well, not completely) design for 50k! So proud!
Also It beat a duramax in a 16 km race. Tryin to showboat he span out about a block from the place we were racing too, and i did a sweet drift around him! haha (The pavement was wet, it's legit)

My Ranger doesn't really surprise me on a daily basis, it is just like any other car. But on the trail is where it impresses me. It definitely doesn't do as well as a lot of rigs, but for how built mine is, I think it does really well compared to comparably built Yotas/ Jeeps.
 
Mine surprises me every day...it's been sitting in a garage for five years and I'm surprised I haven't driven it yet...lol

I was impressed with my first Ranger though...I drove the crap out of that 2.0 and it took it every day...and when I had to replace parts on it to make it better...it was!

I'm so excited about getting this one on the road that I get nipples just thinking about it....:icon_rofl:
 
it started today....again! Im impressed. but seriously my truck has never left me stranded.
 
Mine has mood swing's of gutlessness and v8 power. Today however, I pulled up next to my buddy's dakota at a light (semi-built 318-5speed-4.56's-35's-shortbed&regcab) and outlaunched him huge, managed to grab about 10' of second gear rubber (very hard to do with Krawlers) and help him off until 120km.....Usually it's over about 3 seconds into second gear.

Mine pissed me off today and has me considering taking it to the crusher.... or trading it for a yota/nissan truck. I loaded it on the trailer and broke the spider gears.... how does pulling up a straight line 16 ft break spider gears? its either getting SAS's which Im having a hard time convincing myself into b/c of the amount of money it takes and time or its gone and a yota/nissan will replace it. Ill find out by this weekend.
 
Hell yes. My dad's 2000 out hauls my friend's 2000 1500 Dodge. And will out run it with a full load too...4.0 with the 5spd auto and 4:10s....great combo.

Dodge does sound better though....lol

now my f150 with 48k and hasn't been in the shop yet(kock on wood), though the fuel gauge is starting to take 40mins to show full, but for 2wd and a 3 inch level kit, and the Rockie Mountains in Colorado(Estes park, vidavoo ), it impresses me offroad, i tries to fly and come back for more)
 
I was very impressed with mine last week when i could top a hillclimb none of my friends with yota's could, but today it blew a headgasket, so not so impressed right now.
 
impressed that it ran with no coolant for a month in the summer. hauled a load of 14 tire and rim combos plus 4 33 inch open country mts. does great in the winter with no load in the bed. and i havent broken anything yet. (it falls apart on its own nothing my fault mostly rust problems) had it for 1yr 6 months beat my first car it lasted me 5 days and i blew the motor damn 2.8 chevy camaros
 
impressed with the amazing engineering that went into the clutch hydraulics design....................
