update:

i may be buying this ranger as a DD since my dad doesn't like it (too small for him)

also....he accidentally wrecked it this morning
he forgot to put on the parking brake at his shop and the truck rolled over the concrete parking barrier and into a concrete pole....smashed the bumper and headlight
i don't have pictures yet but he says its not pretty

I think this truck is a perfect upgrade for you. Are you going with offroad or street look? I have a set of 08 mustang GT wheels/tires that would look good.

its 2wd so i'm going street....

i'm not going to go with the hot rod theme like i did with the 1st gen though....
i may just throw some wheels on it and let it be my DD until i get a project truck

Needs 15 inch rims! I like the look FX2.3 has. I think they are Weld rims.

TheStig88 04-15-2009 11:57 PM

i may just throw my cragar SS wheels on there to see what they look like....
if i like it, they'll stay....if not i still have the stock steelies from my 1st gen that i could just paint black and find some chrome center caps
