Started driving manuals after the sluggish GMC. The manuals are more fun than that automatic.

1. 1984 Ranger 2wd, 2.0L 4 cyl, 4 spd Toyo trans. Reg cab, Long box. Odo was over 190k when I parked it out behind a friends barn (still there).

2. 1991 Mercury Tracer LTS. 1.8L DOHC 4 cyl 5spd manual. 220k miles when I drove it to a junk yard and sold it for $80. It was my younger brother's HS car so there wasn't a straight body panel on the thing, and it was starting to rust out, but man was it fun to drive. 30 more hp than the SOHC 1.9L. Ford/Mazda knew what the hell they were doing when they designed that one.

3. 1991 Thunderbird Sport 5.0L V8, 4spd AOD. Mods incl. cold air intake, 130 amp alternator, limited slip rear diff, (love the IRS 8.8) & cat back exhaust. No body mods yet, but I added 17" aftermarket wheels & tires last summer and plan on fixing up the rust this winter. 216,000 miles and still going strong. This is my summer car and will probably deserve a rebuild next winter. I'm thinking 331 stroker with Edelbrock aluminum heads, higher ratio roller rockers, larger tb, and stainless shorty headers.

4. 83 Ranger 4wd 2.3L 4 cyl. 4 spd Toyo trans. Bought this one used for $800 a few years ago with the odometer showing 140k, but it's probably more like 240 or 340. Previous owner messed with the cats and EGR, so it's been a b***h to tune. Original plan was to merge the '84 and '83 into a single good driver, but this ones getting sold this winter after the blown head gasket & cracked exhaust manifold are fixed.

5. '95 Ranger 4wd 4.0L V6, 5 spd manual. 153k miles. New daily driver/winter truck. Mods include manual hub swap, K&N, cat back exhaust, Explorer 8.8. Had to replace all 4 leaf spring hangers after I owned it a week. Didn't realize they were that rusted out until I helped a buddy haul 1000 lbs of fence

That's my personal history. Learned to drive stick in my dad's '73 F100 reg cab w/390 V8. I also really miss the '67 F100 w/289 and 4 spd we had for a work truck that was my daily driver one summer in HS.

Adding to post 33 on the third page. Since Ford pissed on the Rangers, bought a 2008 F-150 STX this weekend. Contemplating give the Ranger to a stranger, or one of my sons. Sorry for the old thread guys, I was asking DG about it . . .

It's still kind of fun though.

1. '90 toyota corolla, 4-dr 5spd 1.6L DOHC 4-banger.
2. '85 nissan 300zx, 5spd. 3.0L v-6 N/A
3. '04 saturn ION quadcoupe (4-dr, but the rear doors were suicide like an rx-8) 5spd, 2.2L DOHC 4-banger
4. (current) '88 ranger ST-X, single cab, 5spd 2.9L, 4x4, 6" lift sittin on 33's


the corolla was given to me by my grandparents shortly after i got my liscense, it was so rusted out that they wouldnt have even gotten shit for it at the JY. i blew my first transmission in that thing, also learned how to change my first FWD trans in it. when the shift cable snapped shortly after the trans swap, i traded it and $300 for the 300zx. I ended up scattering the trans on that too, and learned that RWD transmissions were considerably easier to change. (did that one overnight). tried to learn how to drift, and she went back up on jackstands while i re-attached the rear end. i beat the hell out of that car for almost a year, up until i left for boot camp, when i sold it back to the guy i bought it from. i bought the saturn back in '08 and drove it with out a problem up until the fall of 2010, when an ex-friend of mine rear ended a nissan sentra with it and totalled it out. i bought the ranger in JAN of 2011 and since then ive spent more time under it than in it.

if you hadnt noticed, every one of my vehicles has been a 5spd. i have never owned an automatic, and hopefully never will. at the moment i am debating buying an '83? chevy c-10, with an i6 and a 3spd manual to use as a DD while i complete the v-8 swap on the ranger
