  1. 1975 F100 Ranger

    Yep, a 300 straight 6 with a manual transmission is so nice... I bought a brand new ‘88 F150 with that setup for less than $9k. The ride of my new Ranger reminds me of that truck. Feels like a Ford to me. That’s one of the reasons my Ranger is so special to me.
  2. Ride Quality?

    I think my Ranger has great ride quality. I do have the FX4 package so it’s soft on minor bumps, which is by design. Personally, I’m fine with that. Our Tacoma, by comparison, is pretty harsh under all conditions. I really like the way the Ranger rides on the highway. Definitely different...
  3. What did you do to your Ranger today?

    Wow! That’s the toughest looking Ranger I’ve ever seen! Love it.
  4. What did you do to your Ranger today?

    CLEAN look!! Love the white with the black and tinted windows.
  5. Wandering Steering

    To the OP - I reread my response to your post and realized how rude I was - I wanted to apologize for that. I had just been reading through a post that must have been made by a troll, and I guess I was thinking you might be one as well... I see you're not after reading further and just feel...
  6. Wandering Steering

    It’s the fact that you’re in control of a motor vehicle. If this disturbs you in any way, please stay home and don’t drive anymore.
  7. Base model with no cruise

    I sure like the looks of the OP’s truck. White is always a great choice and looks really cool with the black.
  8. Engine Cover

    Agreed!!! Mine’s quiet as a church mouse!
  9. FX4: changes angle of truck?

    My CPR XLT with the chrome package has the silver piece. I like the way it looks.
  10. What did you do to your Ranger today?

    I think I’ve got to get a leveling kit. Does anybody think there’s a negative reason not to lift the front a bit?
  11. What did you do to your Ranger today?

    I like the look of those lights. How do you tap into the wiring? Do they come on with the headlights? Thanks!
  12. Who came from Tacoma?

    The Tacoma and the Ranger are both very stable with the horses moving around. But again, we just pull a 2 horse straight load trailer (bumper-pull). Both of these mid-sized trucks have worked well for us. And they’re easier to park and maneuver than full size trucks. I would guess that the...
  13. Who came from Tacoma?

    Another thing I was thinking about when I drove my Tacoma today was the “sitting on the floor” feeling. I’m more “upright “ in the Ranger. Every Toyota truck I’ve owned (since my 1974 HiLux) has made my legs stretch forward like driving a car. The Ranger has me sitting up in a more...
  14. Who came from Tacoma?

    Sorry for the delayed response - the Tacoma can do for us everything that the Ranger can do. The Ranger just seems to do things more effortlessly. The Ranger is also more comfortable to me. It just seems more refined than the Tacoma. But I am definitely a fan of Toyota. We pulled our horse...
  15. Who came from Tacoma?

    Yeah, we love our 2007 Tacoma. It’s dead on reliable and a good looking truck. It’s simply not in the same class as the Ranger. But it’s a great farm truck and we appreciate it for what it is. Tows the horse trailer, always starts right up. My Ranger is so comfortable, efficient, and does...
  16. What did you do to your Ranger today?

    Where did you get the letters for the grille? That looks really good.
  17. Uncomfortable

    For what it’s worth, I’m very comfortable in my Ranger. But I can’t get comfortable in my wife’s Subaru Forester. Everybody’s different.
  18. Good mud flaps?

    Yeah, they fit absolutely great and the Ford logos are really not visible at all. I’m glad I chose them. They look more “factory” than any other splash guards I’ve seen.
  19. Why did YOU choose a mid-size truck?

    We have a 2007 Tacoma and a 2019 Ranger. Mid-sized trucks meet our needs perfectly. I’ve owned F-150s and F-350s. I don’t have anything big to tow anymore, so I can get by with a smaller truck. I have several friends who have full size trucks and they rarely haul anything. I think they just...
