My 03 is my second Ranger. First was an 87 XLT 1.9L 5 speed 2 wheel drive. It was silver and blue with blue interior. I liked that little truck, and my experience with it was the reason I bought my current truck.

I had a great 1989 super cab, that was great to me. I had it for a year and a half. V6 5 speed, Midnight Blue( probably wedgewood) sold it in 97
Now I have a 2002 wedgewood blue super cab with a 4.0 automatic. This is a great truck, that I will start modding a little this spring. If I get lucky enough to have a third one it will share time with this one that I won't get rid of.... sometime I will put up a photo.

I'm on number 2 and probably my last. I plan on keepin' this baby until it's not worth reviving anymore.... First was (as the sig says) a '99 XLT.... the only thing I like more about the other one is the stepside bed, other than that the '08 is BY FAR my favorite... custom built and all

I'm on my 3rd and probably not my last.
1st - '95 Reg cab, 4x4, 2.3, 5 speed, 4" suspension lift, 3" body lift, 35" swampers
2nd - '94 Reg cab, 4x4, 3.0, 5 speed, leveling coils, 33" Wild country
3rd - '99 Ext cab, 4x4, 4.0, auto, stock

Now that I look at it they have gotten shorter in height as I have had them. LOL, I miss truck #1. It was a fun play toy when I was 18.

old thread lol

but my ranger is the first one i've owned. and probably the last. i might consider another RBV, such as a sport trac. but never another ranger. great truck for what it is, but i want something larger, with a bigger aftermarket. it gets to a point where there's not much left to do to the truck...

anddd just realized im one of the last comments on it hahaha. my opinion hasn't changed lmao

WTF is with people bringing back these old a** thread lately!! The search button is good for technical stuff but these types of thread should be left to die.
