Yah all the other ranger drivers i see are dopey or middle aged. They dont wanna wave because they bought the truck because of its price.

But now that i think about it, some aftermarket painted two toned ranger used to wave to me. Whatevs.

the 7.3 is the only good diesel in a ford truck 6.0 was junk 6.4 better than a 6.0 but who wants to yank there cab to work on it imo not worth the hassle the new 6.7 i cant say anything about it yet should be a better motor now that navistar isnt involved but will probley invole cab removal for any major work

but is general v8 < I6

not just cummins but in general diesel is better as a inline motor

BTW i said the whole god's gift thing to be a smart ***

I don't wave at just Ranger's...........if I like the vehicle (car or truck) I'll point at em & give a thumbs up, or if I see they are a Veteran, as I am, I'll throughem a salute, or if they wave at me for whatever reason, I'll return it.

Theres a guy on the adjacent street to us, that sits out on his front porch in the evenins, and he waved at me once when I went by in my tow-pig, and we've passed waves ever since, don't know him at all, just a mutual "respect" for each other I guess.

If I see somebody gawkin at my Son's or my Ranger at a meet, I'll just letem look, if they approach me & ask if it's mine, then the conversation begins.

I guess I'm just an "ol' school" type of guy, I was brought up to respect others, you gotta make friends through life somehow, if I hadn't approached a NEW neighbor YEARS ago in the USAF, I'd of lost out on lotta good info after workin/pittin on his open-wheeled modified dirt track car. He & I both cut our teeth on my 450+HP 396, as he had never built a BB either!

At the age I'm at, I "expect" the same respect I've given all my life!

I guess to "each his own"................oh BTW: If I was as "reclusive" as some above me have posted, I'd of never met the guys from this site twice last year at the Knoxville, TN Meet, along with lookin forward to the one next month. Guess you guys "miss out" ey?

I could understand waving to other people if you have an exotic/really nice car, but in a ford ranger...no. I have heard of people in jeep wranglers do the little wave thing when they pass each other and also in mini coopers. I think its lame. like ooooh he drives the same car as me!!! *WAVE*...LAME!!!!!

I'd probably wave if I saw another modded Ranger. I don't think I've EVER seen a single 98+ lifted one around here! Tonight I did meet a 93-97 ext cab Ranger on the highway though that looked pretty cool. It was black with DSG on the bottom like mine and looked to be 31's or so on it. I was in the Focus tho so I'd didn't wave...

you really need to learn how to type and stop using teh m4d tyt3 sh!tz typ!ng cuz it's r3al ann0y!ng r3ading !t when !t l00k5 l!k3 th!5.

it also shows that you are immature and you come off uneducated about your grammer and punctuation skills.

as for the wave, only if it's modded or if we happen to catch each other's face at a red light. not jsut rangers though, most modded trucks or cars too.
