i wanna try something else nothing against the rangers ive just had 3 and i am thinking im going to get a car. Now im looking for something thats got some performance and is between 5-8 grand used. im gettin a good chunk of change from the insurance and im going loan free this time. I will be buying a beater offroad truck after the winter. For now though any suggestions on a car for me?

if you do decide to get another ranger why not a nice ranger stx and get a little loewring kit for it? anyways i dont know what kind of car to suggest because im note exactly sure how much insurance money you're getting.

Maybe a used wrx or v8 stang? You can find late 90's models for under 10k.
What kind of car are you looking for? like what aspects of a car do you like/dislike? There are a lot of cars out there, you need to narrow it down a little.

when i was looking at v6 stangs i got a quote and it was 2x what im paying now for my ranger....
look into a 99+ Mustange GT, or if the insurance will be to much just get a V6 and put some nice perf mods on it,

Why not ' CD ' the cash. Take a grand, buy an older truck, do some work on it ( make it reliable ) and put the rest away to build some intrest. Take whatever you were paying ( if you had a monthly payment ) and bank that as well. In a year or 2 when you decide for yourself what you really want, what you had and more will be there for a down payment.
You might not actually have to spend the cash on a vehical.. Something might come up ( emergency ) where you might need to bail yourself out. Having expenditures around ( sock droor cash ) is always a good thing .

I would suggest a 97-99 Eclipse gst or gsx...most bang for the buck. Put a cold air on and do a little port on the turbo and your runnin about 250hp to the wheels...My friend has a 97 gst and he might have 10g invested in it and he has about 400hp to the wheels, so its a perty good chance you could get up there quick.
