New Ranger!!
my dad and i picked up a new ranger friday night.
its going to be his new daily driver and rumor has it, its what i'm driving down to the Branson meet unless i've replaced mine by then.
Pictures coming soon but until then....
here is all i noticed while i drove it home
its a 1996 2.3l XLT w/ 79200 miles
2wd
short bed
5 speed
White
14 inch alloy (deer hove) wheels
tonneau cover
in dash CD/DVD player with 8 inch screen
white faced gauges
Airhog air intake
Throttle body spacer
a tuner chip of some sort...haven't seen it yet
tacky taillight covers
35% tinted windows
its basically just like mine but 10 years newer

i'm at work right now....so you'll have to wait until i get home

it is a very nice truck but in comparison...
my old truck was a hot rod....quick, loud, eye catching, stiff suspension, turned you on just from starting it
this truck is a Cadillac ......smooth, quiet, blends in, grandpa truck, turns you off just looking at it
