Picked up a 2011 Ranger XLT 4x4

[drvon]

I bought a 2010 Mazda B4000 in June, and I love it. I have had no issue's so far, which is a different situation when I bought my Mini in 2005. The mixture of 4WD and traction control, has worked very well in the snow that we have had so far.

Its a shame that the ranger will be gone. It's the last affordable 4WD compact truck on the market. The Nissan frontier and toyota tacoma are too expensive, and the f150 is too big for my needs. Also the sport trac starts at 35 thousand in Canada, what the hell? I think Ford will bring the Ranger back in five years, after the realized the mistake.

Congrats on the buy, I like that color a lot on the Rangers!

So they are gonna stop making them? I just built a 2011 sport on the website with a 4.10 limited slip? I thought they were gonna keep making them, they just aren't sinking any money into them like options and redesigns?http://bp2.ford.com/2011-Ford-Ranger#page=/MakeItYours/

suspension kit options seem a little limited for this truck(not a big fan of body lifts)

Your only suspension options are installing the '07-earlier torsion keys and rear blocks for a little bit of lift plus turning the torsion bars to level the front, the Superlift kit that costs a lot of money, or the Dixon Bros. kit that costs about double what the Superlift does.
There is a FAQ sticky thread in the 4x4 Suspensions forum.
