I know I sure do. Just moved into a new house, I have a PA state vehicle for work. It kills the Ranger on mileage, and is a bargain if you ask me.

I said the same thing about my first Ranger, but I sold it about 4 years ago.

I don't care how much power the v6 mustangs have, it's still a v6 and I don't care what people say you can NOT ever make a v6 sound like a v8

But can your Mustang pull a boat, carry a load of bricks, go off roading? NOPE.

If your current needs do not require a truck, then yes, buy a Stang.

You don't buy a ranger to do any of those things with lol, rangers are just all around mediocre.
