As soon as I have my ranger paid off, I will have a small Ford car. I would say most people on here have a Ranger and something else or just a ranger.

I have a Ranger, wife has a focus. I didn't want or need a fullsize truck as my truck is for my hockey gear, for camping and to drive to work.

Well most (if not all) of the full size owners here still or once owner a Ranger. There knowledge and experience with Rangers are still valuable even though they may not own one. Rangers are pretty limited vehicles unfortunately. No room, limited towing capacity, smaller engine that also inhibits towing. They are great starter/bachelor vehicles, but you can't fit more than your girlfriend and her fat friend in them. So as people on here who once owned Rangers get older they tend to literally out grow their Rangers. You just can't fit a family and groceries in it.

I, personally, am planning on going to another midsize truck but it won't be a Ranger. Too cramped. Need 4 doors. Don't need a fullsize though.

Both, Ranger is easier to park, get around town, lite hauling, and some very lite towing. MPG about the same.
