So I bought my '98 Ranger 4x4 a couple months ago. Its a great truck and it just burns a little oil on cold days when i start it. No bid deal as I got another motor lined up and will be riding my bike around this summer. That should give me a chance to maybe rebuild this thing
Anyways I was sitting around BSing with my buddy and I noticed this funny little green sticker on the side of my block. I take a look at it and read "OHV EXPL AUTO LHD". The funny part is I have a manual Ranger. The manufacturing date... November 2000. So I have a newer motor in my truck and it still burns oil. The truck has 240,000 KM on it and I wonder what the motor has.
LAter in that same day I see an import sticker on the door, which is weird becuase the Ranger has all the CAD gauges. Is there anyway unique features to canadian 98's.
Oh yea and it used to be a mine truck and has had a crazy ammount of owners. I'm going to run the VIN to see what this thing was and has had done, it could be worth while to sepnd the $30 and get a CarProof report.
Either way, I still love my truck
I'll post up some pics later in a my "show off your truck thread"
