I'm sorry, that Ranger is played up WAYYYY too much.

The original Ranger with a 4BT was a grey reg cab short bed 93 with D60's under it.

I wanted to do it, till everyone else saw that yellow one and now, I'll stick with my 4.0L thank you

Also, Stacks on a gasser, no issue, just so long as it has a killer note to it, which while I love the sound of my Ranger, I'd rather hear the sound of american V8 if I had stacks.

If it is your vehicle, do what you please. There are no rules saying that a vehicle must be a diesel to have stacks. Stacks were on gas truck before they were on diesel drag trucks anyway. Who is to say that is the only place they belong? there are a lot of mods that people do to their vehicle that serve no purpose at all. They do them because they want to. If i wanted to be just like everyone else i would have dual chrome tips out the rear or a Flowmaster dumped over the axle, but i like to be different. I like having things that no one, or not many people have done.

I will keep my stacks on my gas truck and carry on my dads tradition, knowing that nobody else has an exhaust like mine. =]
LOL, hell yeah, my friend had a 1984 F150, 300 straight 6, 4 speed bulldog transmission. We had a 5" stack on it, it was fun to beat around in haha.
