It's an off/on thing. Regular cab 4.0s are back for '05, but only in 4WD trucks. Ford is bringing back lots of old models from previous years like regular cab XL and XLT 4WDs (with the long bed as an option).

I got a regular cab because I liked the way it looked. There isn't a ton of room, but it's enough. I'm not a tall person and most of what I carry can go in the bed.

 

Plus a regular cab fits in a garage alot easier too!

 

i got mine because i was a 19 year old broke private and my s-10 blazer had just died a most horrific death. only thing i could afford the payments on

 

I kinda wanted a reg. cab but I stubled on my 02 at the local dealer... got a great deal sice it had been on the lot for 3 months. I bought it the day before they were going to take it to an action... I got it almost a year ago for $13,700... not to bad hu?

 

my dad bought my truck new and got it to do house work. he wanted the long bed and the extended cab but couldnt get both so he decided to get the long bed instead. i want to build an extended cab/ long bed ranger someday.

 

Yeah now that I think about it if I had a supercab you wouldn't be able to walk past my truck in the garage, it'd be right up against the wall.

 

yeah, that is a bad problem, in my garage i had to do the ghetto mod...i tied a tennis ball to some string and tied it to the ceiling, so when i pull it and see the ball move, i know to stop, otherwise i'll take out the wall.

i think the single cabs look awesome slammed, but x cabs lifted...i especially like Jareds edge (from gen edge...i dunno if hes a member here) his truck is sweet IMO.

but yeah, my town is starting to get on the ball with rangers, i need to fab up some bussiness cards for this site or something, i dunno. we got a red tremor with a total rockford system, a 2000-ish black ranger slammed on 20's with 2 15's, one purple edge thats bagged....i'm just glad that rangers are tellin the ***** s-10's to move the **** over....i call s10's *****'s because in my town, an s10 is like a *****, every guy in town has one...and some girls do too...

 

a supercab/ short bed and a regular cab/ long bed are about the same lenth.

 

But he has a regular cab/short bed. Very few Rangers are equipped w/ long beds anymore..

 

yeah... i havnt seen a newer one yet, just the 98-00's

 

Yes, in fact ford just re-introduced the reg. cab 7' combo for 05. Its been absent from the lineup since around 99.

 

really!!! that sucks.

 

The price mainly, but I love the look of the reg cab and flareside :)
