How often do you see other modded Rangers around?

Today was the first day I've ever seen another lifted 98+ Ranger (other than meeting someone on here...)

It was a silver/DSG FX4 that looked to have an RCD lift. There's never any around here.... took a couple years to find one! lol I doubt it's anyone here... all I got was a crappy phone pic that didn't turn out so I won't bother posting!

Almost nothing under the border. Maybe some headracks, bed caps and chromed wheels, but nothing serious from the suspension or engine side.

I hardly see a Ranger at all. When I do see one it is usually a white fleet Ranger.

Pretty sweet black fx4 on 31's with sweet wheels. Has blacked out led tails that looks pretty nice. I'll get a pic of it eventually

I dont see many around here. I see alot of rangers but very few of them are modded and the ones that are usually are nothing more than a body lift or a set of tires.

There's TONS of Rangers around me but they're all stock or have some crappy Autozone mods. There's only 2 modded Ranger's here. One is double lifted on 35's BFG AT's and the other just has a body lift and some crappy no name 33's.

He had to sell 347 dogs to afford that axle.....And its funny how his 37's are pit-bulls haha.

....waiting for him to chime in.

Ive only seen one or two modded rangers around town. One is a late 90's, superlifted w/33s, and the other has just 33's.

Everything else is pretty much stock, or has stickers on it that say "redneck"

Depends what you call modded. I see Rangers with LED and Euro tails. Or all blacked out. Nice wheels but all stock. Never any lifted ones though. I love the looks I get, Rangers that look halfway decent are rare for sure. You don't think about it when your on here every week. Anyone who knows anything about trucks or Fords generally gives my truck the once over. And I get some compliments occasionally.

I was heading back from Cedar Point a few weeks ago and a double lifted 02-03 Silver FX4 passed us on the otherside of the interstate. It was on 35s, maybe 37s. Headache rack, bedlined rockers. Had a sticker across the windsheild for a website, no idea what it said though.

I see lifted Rangers and even Mazdas here all the time but then again there's at least a couple hundred thousand Rangers here, at least that's what it feels like.

I have only seen a few around me. When I do see one in a parking lot or parked on the street I stop and put an R/F sticker under their windshield wiper. I have done that to a lifted 1st gen and a lifted 3rd gen with a few mods. I was hoping they would join and put up a thread about it but I guess not.
