I just picked up my new ride today! 96 Ranger XLT 3.0 standard cab with a MANSTICK and a Pussamatic switch on the dash. This little gem has 200000+ miles on it and she doesn’t even have the slightest hint of a lifter tic!
This isn’t my first Ranger “Littleblue” an “88” 2.9 Ranger XLT 2WD. I bought her in 2001 for $1500 Sadly though Littleblue died outside of Amarillo Texas
The tranny froze or should I say it locked into fourth gear while pulling a trailer full of my stuff from Missouri to California. “Littleblue” had somewhere around 300000+miles on her without a motor rebuild, tyranny swap or rear end swap.
I miss that little truck….. I taught my son Jacob how to drive a stick shift on the back roads of Missouri. I’m looking forward to having my son Jacob driving this “96” Ranger.
