my 99 ranger now has 213000 miles on it and still runs like new :headbang: it jus wont quit how many miles does yalls rangers got on em?
 
my 03 only has 85,000, but my old truck had over 200,000. My buddy's old 87 he had, had rolled over 4 times and was about to roll again. Used oil like a bitch but still ran like a top.
 
at 174000 on my 98 4.0. hopin it dont rust out to shit before i get over 200,000, these WI winteres are a beach
 
233k+ but still runs good even with bad compression, loaded about 1/2 a ton on it (haybales + dad and myself) drove it in mud and rain to the barn from the far field, ran great =).

The wieght helped the tranny shift, gained speed slower, which helped it engage correctly. So thats a good thing, hope that if I let it shift right a few times it will go back to runnin right.

Like I said, trucks have a personality to, and my truck is tough, still kicken after 26 years of abuse!
 
i use to have ppl try to tell me rangers are for pussys but i gotta call bs on that one cuz theyre tough as hell

damn straight, mine runs without brakelines, reverse will work for that XD, the tranny needs help shifting, (3spd auto), and the engine needs help starting, but once its running, it wont kill over.

We ran it to town and the tailpipe fell off and the engine kept chugging normally, I also hit a trailer with it, backed up and parked + cleaned up the mess, next to no damage, just shoved the trailer back.

Its like a bumper car XD
 
sweet well i didnt think my 4.0 was gonna run past 100000 miles because the first time i changed the oil after i got it (75000 mi) the thing chattered so much it sounded like a deisel and didnt stop till bout 130000 miles now the motor is nice and quiet... well except for the glasspack but yall know what i mean
 
your very close there dude, you know where Wellsboro is?
 
246K on a 3.0, starting to make some funny noises...might have to start looking for a trans and engine soon.
