That was awfully harsh haha, dont like it if its auto. Mine is automatic, and I love it

No im not a fan of auto but i still wonder why they rate the auto with 2000 lbs more towing capacity than the standard models?

Because most people have no idea how to properly drive a stick, and will burn the clutch hard if they attempt to tow alot of weight. In that aspect auto is eeasier, and in fords mind means it can pull more weight.

I drive a stick btw, I WILL NOT BY A VEHICLE IF ITS NOT A STICK. I hate that with an auto ,it shifts whenever it wants to, drives me NUTS.

do they make anything a standard any more....hell big rigs are now becoming an auto.....no fun...

truxk is not bad but it is way to shiny and it needs some tree scratches,few dents, and LOTS of MUD

 

[jaycheetwood]

yeah i have had 2 rangers now 02 and 03 and both were stick and i have loved them to death and i have driven an auto and it honestly has no ballz

Why doesnt that FX4 have BFG ATs?

 

[jaycheetwood]

hmm they actually went away from putting on 31 x 10.50 BFG A/T idk why i love the tire personally and run it currently on my FX4 lvl II

Hey guys... just got back from a weekend in the BC mountains and took some interior shots. I'll post them up when I get home from work.

Yes it is a stick and yes there will be suspension and wheel/tire modifications in the very near future.

 

[jaycheetwood]

oh i am making sexy time with your truck now that i know it is a manual transmission oh my;
i love it.

Well, if your looking for performance upgrades make a call to Trevor at Colecraft Machine (681-3683) and tell him Andrew sent you. He's in calgary and has 3 different rangers, and a few different engines lyin around in various states of build. He'll gladly help you out and send you in the right direction as far as performance parts go....his 91' (90'?) ranger is getting close to running a high 12' second quarter mile, with a lil nitrous of course....

Very nice Ranger, I wish I found one in that body style in my price range that was beat to hell, but I got the PT Loser instead. Out of random curiosity, what part of Calgary are you in. I'm up in the NW. If you need any help I don't mind lending a hand, if I have room in my schedule.

 

[Greg5567]

Oooh, yay...

run 35's (a/t or m/t whichever suits you) on 6" suspension and maybe a body lift

 

[TayCo 7s]
