all 3 of my trucks have gotten my personal touches....

with all the work i put into my trucks, they become a part of me....not just a tool i use everyday

my trucks stand out and are different in their own ways.

i think its the minor changes/mods that make the biggest difference.....those are the ones that only a true car geek would notice.

i love that most of the time my ranger will do what i need it to do while being effeceint enough to drive every day to work. its not the best tool for every job, but it is the most versatile vehicle ive ever had. my 3/4 ton was a awesome tow rig, but the fuel milage was lousy (and it was only a 2wd) my 1st ranger i had for 7 years, this ranger im almost at 8 years of ownership. it even looks good with no tires, right at home in the trailer park. lol Name:  z004.jpg

The way it looks and how something as simple as a body lift and 33's can totally transform it to an aggressive looking machine. And also cause these trucks are so versatile.

I know about this problem!

But when I
pull up in my Ranger, and it's a totally different story!

I like that mine only has 48,xxx miles on it. My buddy has 157,xxx on his Ranger and it's still running great. I really like how dependable it is.

I like the MPG's compared to my Bronco. I also like that is is an 05 with only 40k miles. And that it is a 5 speed...much more fun to drive.

I'd say its the most comfortable vehicle I've ever been in. Driven 18 hours strait before and haven't been tired or cramped because of the seats.

Yes, it's a very comfortable truck, and very easy for me to get in and out of with my bad back. It's the perfect height for me, I don't want it lifted or lowered.
