New Truck

I sold my 2000 Ranger about four months ago due to engine problems that were starting to arise. I should be picking up my new truck today. Its a 1991 Ranger 4X4 STX 4.0L 5-speed. I always wished that my 2000 was a 5-speed. Im excited. I'd like to eventually get a manual transfer case in it but I'll focus on getting some manual hubs in it first.

Since your gettin a much older truck, it might have as much or more problems then your old (should I say younger) truck. But nothing wrong with a classic Gen 2 they're rare to come by. My uncle used to own a late 80's Gen 1 Supercab auto and very solid she is.

Yea I agree but my 2000 had a cracked head so I sold it to carmax while it was still running pretty good. I work at a water plant and they are expanding the plant so I'd rather have something that isn't too nice sinse I will be basically parking at a construction site for awhile.

They 91 Ranger is doing good. I've put over two thousand miles on it and it runs great. Everytime I tested the 4 wheel drive it worked great but one night it was icy and when I hit the button nothing happened. I need to figure that out cause if it doesn't work when I need it then that takes away from the whole reason I bought the truck. I'll get it figured out. I took the stock wheels off and got some black steel wheels and it looks awesome.
