which ranger?

great site guys... anyways, i have a decision here. same price and year truck. one is a 2003 level 2 with 36k miles. the other is a fx4 2003 with only 8k miles on it. which one should i go towards. im traveling 60 miles a day atleast and will be modding the truck. im goin to school for engineering and will be doing a lot to it. i was thinking the fx4 with 8k since it has a lot less miles on it.

i would buy the one with less miles, and later upgrade it to be equal/greater than the lvl II...

28,000 is a big difference in miles. that's 2-3 more years driving for some people...

how much more expensive is the fx4?

they are the same price. im eventually gonna be putting a lift, bigger tires, more power into it and was thinking that the fx4 would be better cuz of less miles. the level 2 is red and the fx4 is a dark gray. another reason y i was leaning towards the fx4. i really dont want a red truck. i think i may have answered my own question.
