Back in the family? I think so!!!

Well I just went and negotiated on my new Ranger. Going to go pick it up, hopefully, tomorrow. I'm stoked! I ended up not getting a Level II, but the next best thing. It also has the Pioneer system in it! I never found a real home after I sold the Ranger, that's the main reason I wanted another one, you guys!!! Enjoy.

Actually no, it just looks dirty. The truck is SUPER clean, under and inside. The car was owned by a woman, I found here name and address in the manual. I called her up and asked her some questions, never been offroad etc...

God please don't ask that! I'm sure it will be a money pit. A couple things so far are: 06 tails, 06 corners, 3" BL, same tire/wheel setup as in my old truck in sig, front windows tinted to match... etc.

I haven't decided what I'm going to do with my car yet. I only owe 21,000 on it, so I told the dealer if they gave me 23,000 for it, I would just trade it in. If not, I would keep it.

Sweet man! Let me know when you want your 06 tails and stuff, I know a place where you can get it super cheap. If you ever want to get rid of that console, I'll take it just name a price.

Truck looks great man!! I swear if I wanted an SOHC, might as well get a 4x4 Supercab since 99.99999% of them have that engine. Most 4x2 models have 3.0's and 4 bangers.

Question is are 4x4's worth the maintainence upkeep? Might be easier then a FWD sedan lol!
