Well, Its Official. The Ranger will be gone next week.

Well, the guy came buy today, we took it offroading and for a test drive, he absolutly loves it! So, the Ranger will be gone next week! its going to be a sad and hard day to see it leave, but he will take good care of it.

So, It will be replaced by this(most likely):



Tell me your thoughts, good or bad.. My plans for the new truck are a 4" Lift, 35" KM2's, and a Ford Racing Supercharger

Yes it will be! According to guys on F150online, the Ford Racing Whipple supercharger kit puts down 400+ to the wheels easy.

How are you going to afford that F-150? I thought you are barely making any money off the Ranger because you still owe money on it. Dont you also have other bills if I remember right?

haha yeah hes buying it for 8500.. which is only 1K over NADA and right at KBB..

and robert, You read wrong.. I wanted to get more out of the ranger, not because i couldnt afford it, but because i have spent so much money.. And yes i do have other bills, but i wont here pretty soon.. The f150 is going to be the same amount per month as the ranger and one of my other bills combined.. 350 a month.. Not too bad..

He is selling me the F150 AS is, except i am getting the stock FX4 rims put back on, and he is keeping the current rims.. I dont like 22's haha

like i said, the rims are going to be the stock 18" FX4 rims.. Which IMO are the best looking stock rims made for trucks.. Then some 35" KM2's will be put on.. My biggest mod will be the Ford Racing Supercharger kit.. just have to decide whether i want that or the lift... hmm...

The 22" monsters make that truck IMO. Now it will look just like every other leveled F-150 on the road. Still a nice upgrade but wont have that sex appeal any longer.

Looks good man. I would wait on the mods and work on paying it off first. 5k supercharger, 2k lift, 2k+ wheels and tires you could almost pay off the 150 with that.
