as far as i know you can only get the sport trac with a 4.0 and an automatic ... hardly a lot of "options" out there for it

I thought the F150 was a 7/8ths truck, not a full size (like the first gen Tundra).

Well than explain to me why ford used the same body for the f-150 thru the f-350 and the f-superduty up to '97 when the f-150 got a redue and the super was born in '00. Chevy and doge use the same bodies from 1500-3500. ranger/s10=compact, dakota/colorado=mid size, F150/1500+=full size.

Then he was cool as hell!
sry but that's not how the law is the cop just let you off. the law in pa states that the only time you can be in the bed of a truck legally is if you are traveling from farm to farm or during hunting season and that isn't room for you or the other people in the cab and it can only be for a short distance

i dont know about that downey, we used to load up a the guys on lunch at penn tech and go to wendys n **** with no problems. i am almost 100% sure it is 35mph and under but there needs to be some kind of seat back there.

just how much more room would a 4 door ranger have in the back seats do u think? i wonder how much room the 4 door s-10 had? and with a crew cab u wont see much more than a 5 foot bed at the most which is pretty useless in a ranger, i mean add a tool box and ur loosing out on another foot so that leave hardly any room. i think the sport trac fits that niche nicely.

on a side note, co-worker bought a ridgeline. i must say, very nice truck for what it is. it is ugly but its quiet inside, rides nice and have decent power. it will also have no problems in the snow/slush/what have u and off-road it will go a lot more places then u would think.

The Adrenaline Package in red/black, silver/black or black/black might just put me into one later this year. AWD sure sounds nice . . .
