Extended Cab - Won't someone think of the kids!?
So I'm soon-to-be in the market to replace my 93 regular cab 2.3L. Not that I want to get rid of it but I need something that I can put the kids (and their car seats) in.
My question is how is the room in the extended cab Rangers? Is there enough room to put a couple of toddler car seats comfortably (and safely)? Or should I just try to find a BroncoII or Explorer? I'd really like to keep a pickup just for convenience but family comes first.

i dont think you are supposed to put car seats in the side facing seats.
also i spent the weekend in the back seat of my ranger with my parents driving because we went camping, they drove the rv and i took the ranger for scooting around in. you get tired of sitting back there! for family get something bigger....
look at an s10 or colorado 4 door if you want a small pickup.

I would love a full size truck but...$$$...the budget just can't handle two gas hogs.
I've thought about just getting a cheap car and keeping the Ranger and right now that seems the way to go. I guess I'll just have to wait and see what I can find when the time comes.
Thanks.

with the older truck, i'm guessing its paid off, pick up a cheaper car to haul the kids if need be.
i have my ranger, and a chevy lumina, the car i have less than 1k total into including tires and cost of the car. gf drives it mostly.
you don't have to get a brand new car, but getting like a 4 door civic or accord will not only save money when you don't have to take the bigger truck, it will be something else instead of the ranger to save gas.

I'd say get something with a full back seat, whether it is a four door pickup, SUV or sedan. Whatever you decide, keep in mind life will be much easier if you do not have to pull the front seats forward to access the rear seats. It is hard enough to get the kids in/out without crawling or leaning over seats. I wouldn't put my wife's dog in the bed of a pickup, even with a cap and seatbelt harness
And to answer your question... Not enough.
