Car shows....

and wheeling....

It doesnt win any shows, mainly cause its not a show car, but I like putting it in them....

Exactly. The more grass I kill, the better I feel and less time I spend trying to keep neighbors happy.

Over the 20 odd years that my truck has been in service to my family it has been, at various times, a family car, a DD, a work horse, a toy, a project, a kid's first vehicle, a lawn ornament, an obstruction in the garage, a shop truck, and twice has it been a little boy's favorite ride.

Currently, to put a smile on my face. I've built 2 different RBV's, one was a daughter's first car (avatar picture), the other was just to have a spare vehicle for the winter that was 4wd. I have a modern awd sedan, and a few other cars but I find myself driving the 87 ranger more and more.

I have a larger 3/4 ton diesel truck for heavy hauling so the Ranger is good for light trips to Home Depot and the like.

310RWHP, bucket seats from a prelude, and 20psi boost. Yes, it puts a smile on my face.

I use my rangers to fill up space in my garage..lol.

I use mine for everything a Ranger shouldn't be used for. Daily driving, towing more than it's own weight, hauling passengers on 130 mile (one way) trips, (Even did both on the same trip once.) and carving corners quick enough to make Mustangs jealous.

Got mine a month ago, using as a dd and dog hauler. Before too long ill have a newer ranger as my dd and this as my dirt bike hauler/ Lt hooligan

I really like my B2, it is the newest vehicle I own by decades, can park/u-turn/go nearly anywhere, and nobody seems obsessed over what year it is or if it is for sale.

I take it to one show a year and the rest of the time I use it as an enclosed street legal Gater/Ranger/Mule side by side around my acreage. Even has a heater and satellite radio.

I use my truck as a lawn ornament, there's still lots of work it needs done due to previous owner stupidity.

Once I'm finished using it for lawn decor I will be using it as my DD since it's my only vehicle.

i use mine for about everything, had this one 12 years now, the longest ive owned anything. ive even used it to pull a dead tractor to the hose when i was mowing, 1/2 mile from the house, off road with street tires...and the tractor/mower weighs more than my ranger! still has cold a/c and ive never had to recharge it. sure theres been some minor issues, but its still my favorite "tool" in the shed, still the daily driver, and even though the rust is really starting to take its toll, its still rolling down the road and i see no reason to part with it yet.

My '88 is my daily driver. It serves me well but the girlfriend hates it, she would rather I have something with more seats but I use it as a truck and just can't give it up.

My '86 is mostly just a wheeling rig but I daily drive it occasionally and it is pretty handy for recovery and other stuff.

my little B2 is a pure play toy and work in progress. I do tow the boat with it and find myself driving it more and more just cause its fun. Camping and paddling trips. again just fun.

Lots of lofty plans of course that I'm slowing working on but enjoying the ride.
