Foreign Ranger in East Texas

[P. A. Schilke]

I saw a made in Mexico version here in the Denver metro.....wish I could have taken a picture. The tailgate was different. I don't think the Ranger tailgate indention was the same as ours....it was weird.

Hi Mark,

Yep...we dine in Nogales USA but see Sonora MX plated vehicles. Not vehicles we see stateside. Took one of my Former Engineers down to a little restaurant named Tito's (yeah...coincidence) and he was fascinated with vehicles he had never seen in the USA...All with MX tags...

Best,
Phil

That's cool!
I'm in Tyler, so it's neat that it was close by. I bet they were tired of the rain too. Lol.
I do like that camper set up.

Saw this Wildtrak on the streets of Kilgore, TX. Looks like “Bri-ish” license plates but not sure. Quite the collection of stickers of countries visited. Thought it was cool and would share. Couldn’t tell if it was a diesel job.

Wow, this guy has been around! Thanks for sharing!

Liverpool England to Halifax Nova Scotia is approx. $3000

I looked into doing that with my Kawasaki ZX11 many years ago, to ride on the Isle of Man, and France. Round trip was about $1800 ~Y2K plus me. But then my left brain started worryng about shipping delays, sea sickness, customs, damage, rats...

Small world, I’m in Tyler all the time and see a lot of Rangers, but that’s first with the in the bed setup I’ve seen anywhere. That’s including Dallas and Houston. I can spot a fellow Ranger a mile away lol!

If you ever get the chance to see a true ''Wolf F150'' which were the Mexican Assembled for Mexico only market, they're an incredibly unique truck as they have a different interior compared to the North American F150's of the same year, also had more engine options including Diesel. I've seen two versions of the ''Wolf F150'' a Mexican Assembled and a US Assembled, both in California when I was traveling there. Also there is no Mexican assembled Ranger, Rangers for the Mexican market most likely come out of Argentina.

Appears at least the camper is a German company, alot of the campers I saw on there site are on extended cabs but a few crewcabs

Different tailgate?
Bet it comes with a factory installed damper.

Wonder how they have it set up to handle that weight.

Likely nothing. They make some pretty lightweight slide ins overseas and the ROW Rangers have greater payload capacity than ours, slightly.

ROW Rangers have multi leaf rear suspension, this setup may include an extra leaf and air shocks.

It's much cheaper to do RO-RO shipping, it's about $1,500 roughly for a one way trip which is what most people and manufacturers do to ship cars.

How much for mothers-in-law? Asking for a friend. ? ? ?

2 extra leafs but no air shocks. For that tschirner cabin thing they ad another extra leaf and adjustable dampers.
edith: usualy

Yes, a bit more than a ton. but it drives terrible than.
