Just bought a '95! Soon to be ghetto PR?

Hello interwebs...

My name is Bob, I am a twenty three year old musician that lives in Tucson, AZ and I just picked up a '95 Ranger for almost nothing...

Its the 2.3L 4cyl, manual, regular cab with 90k miles. I got it for $800 bucks and it runs great but has a little body damage.

I got this truck to have some fun and beat it up in the desert so any advice on how to make my adventures better would be greatly appreciated.
(no rock crawling... I just want to go fast... on dirt... and jump things.)

I will post some pictures soon.
-Bob

Go to a junk yard and get the filler neck. Easy replacement. And for going fast in the desert you are going to need a long travel kit on there otherwise that thing will be TOAST!

Yea run it as empty as possible so you dont kill your self when you pull the tank straps off.
