FX4 maybe, but wasn't the Tremor originally more of a street truck package. I never paid much attention to the package, but I definitely seem to recall it starting out as more street oriented package, not an off-road one. In that respect it would be right at home on the Maverick.

Not you’re every day Ranger, Facebook

If I remember correctly, Tremor was originally more of a sound package with some exterior decals.

Saw Raptor Ranger in Panama City Beach, FL this weekend. Caught it going out of town on Hwy 231

It WAS a stereo package with Rockford Fosgate components for Rangers only. Then they decided it needs to be another off road package and made it for all trucks in the lineup.

I thought that that was the Rapper Ranger . . .

oh wait

. . . the Rapper Ranger had a turntable and pile of scratched records, too.


I think it was, anyway. My memories of the '80s and '90s are gettin kinda hazy at this stage . . . .

Are you sure they weren’t hazy back then too?

Sound system is more in line with what I was thinking, but they've had so many sound sytem packages over the years I can't keep them straight either.

Why can't we just go back to the simple 3 trim level packages with options like it used to be. The heck with special packages to get stuff. Give me an option sheet and let me pick what I want off of it, trim level be damned.

I know, that will never happen again, atleast not with the major manufacturers. Guess I'll just have to put together my own stuff with what I want in it.

Went to my favorite brew pub this afternoon and stumbled into the last few minutes of an impromptu car show. No Rangers. In fact, I don't think I saw any Fords except my Ranger. Here are a few that caught my eye.

@Uncle Gump may enjoy these first 2

Nice veedubs, and it's refreshing to see a '69 Camaro WITHOUT Z/28 or SS emblems. I like that Valiant, too; it looks like an honest survivor.

Don't see those Type 2 VW trucks anymore.

Saw this 3rd Gen Ranger on the side of the road being reclaimed by the foliage near Lawrenceburg KY last weekend. Looks like it has sat there a few years

Super nice 87-91 F150 4x4 in town today....

Not really a sport track fan, but I saw this the other day and thought it was not too bad looking.

Seems lowered slightly.

 

[Uncle Gump]

Not a fan of the Sport Trac myself... in fact... I think I just threw up a little.

They're still part of the family... just not the ones the rest of the family should be judged.

I've only seen a couple that I kinda liked.
