how often is your ranger used?


Mine is a garage ornamint ( can't spell) and a collecter of crap and dust till I'm finished with the build. Hopefully I can get everything done by summer and wheel the crap out of it!
 
My is my dd on the weekend since I have a company truck to drive during the week.
 
My company truck (06 fleet ranger 3.0 no bells, no whistles) has seen 34,000 miles in the last 9 (ish) months.

The project truck has seen 91.9, and that was on a trailer....
 
I use my Explorer pretty much on a daily basis. If I need to haul or tow something I use my 1 ton (gas mileage is killer in it). I started my samurai about a month ago and same with my Ranger (both need to be driven more). My kids love the Samurai, but I have a short somewhere in the wiring harness for the dash lights, and now that it gets dark early she sits (plus Im trying to get a house bought and then the SPOA kit for it gets bought).
 
Every day during the week. It holds down the driveway on the weekends and I/we rock the GF's Focus.
 
I've never used mine. (current one) yet..... I've sat in it a couple times and I connected the battery to use my portable air compressor to fill up the tire. But that's it.

Work on mine is going slowly. I replaced the battery, and fixed up the exhaust enough to get an inspection sticker. It needs a clutch really bad, When the weather gets too bad to work on the house I'm gonna tent the Ranger and do the clutch and drive shaft. After that it will just see duty as a utility / 4th vehicle.
 
I use my ranger for everything. 155k miles on the clock, so as long as I keep driving it at the rate I do, it'll be past the break-in period pretty soon. I've driven it 25 thousand miles in a year and 2 months.
 
mine use to be my dd but the compression went to 30psi on a couple of cylinders and when i tore it down i decided it was time for a v8. now waiting for my brother to buy a parts car off me so i can get parts car for the ranger.

then it will probably be driven about 2 time a week.

but i havent moved it in like 2or3 months, but i sat in yesterday does that count?
 
i sat in yesterday does that count?

Did you hold on to the imaginary steering wheel and shifter, pretend to operate the imaginary pedals, and make engine noises? I did that today, i think it counts for something...
 
i drive mine on a daily basis. just rolled over 143,000 miles today. sometimes its pulling a 6 x 10 V-nose box trailer, sometimes its loaded down with wood. its almost 20 years old now and starting to show its age, but its always got the job done. even if most days thats just getting me to work and back.
 
I use mine Monday-Friday, sometimes on the weekend if we need parts for something. When we bought it it had about 98,450 Miles, today it has 99,784 officially. I put around 95-120 miles on it in 2 weeks.
 
I use mine everyday except when i have to do my two paper routes then i jump in my automatic subaru turbo rustbox
