the current ranger is right up there, if only because its the newest of any vehicle i've owned (by 16 years, and atleast 100,000 miles!).

my 1990 S10 blazer was alot of fun w/ 31" swamper LTBs, lots of good times, but it liked to flood on hot starts, and was getting rusty.

my 1985 S10 was a kinda nice truck, i should have kept it and put a SBC in it. it was my first vehicle, the 2.8L sure sucked!

1) 98 Ford Ranger, Single Cab, Long Bed, 3.0, Fully loaded 5-Spd

99k when I bought it. Traded it in at 120k and it still ran like new. Never burned or leaked oil. Always stared on the first try. I traded it in on a car for mpg. Wish I never did that.

They were when I owned them !! I got very good deals on most of them and some I bought brand new. The only regret I had was leasing the new S-10..., that was a terrible deal. I paid lease payments for 4 years and had nothing to show for it after that, what a rip. I'll never lease another vehicle. I liked the truck but it was a lousy deal.
