They are worthless that's why everyone is trying to sell them.

really? i've never even heard anyone mention anything about an electric Ranger. but yea i agree with you it seems pretty worthless. slow acceleration. not very impressive gas mileage. takes forever to recharge. no 4x4. i would never buy one.

Most that are out there need the newer updated battery packs, which aren't that cheap.. You are right, the range that you get out of a charge sucks, plus i'm curious about how it does when you try to tow with it
