Ahhh...Good to be back in a Ranger!

Picked up a 2011 Ford Ranger Sport 4x4 today. Been Ranger-less for 3 years. It sucked lol.

It feels great man! It's a lot smoother and quieter than my previous Ranger from what I can remember. But that previous Ranger had a 3" BL and 33" tires

Oh and it smells awesome too lol! Love that new car scent...

MSRP was about $28k. I got it for about $22.7k

I would like to go with a 4" suspension lift if I can find one. I haven't really searched much but if anyone can link me to some good ones, it would be greatly appreciated! I'd also like to get some 33" BFG All-Terrains (dunno if I wanna keep the stock wheels yet), tint the driver and passenger windows so they match the quarters and back window, miscellaneous things to the inside, Line-X the bed, and probably get a custom Flowmaster exhaust. Just hope anything I do doesn't void the warranty...



Oh and if anyone could, please post up links of the best places to browse and buy accessories for our trucks.
