Specs in my sig. It gets about the same mileage as the Ranger, but hauls a lot more.

It recently got keyed. I actually smiled when I saw that it had gotten keyed, because somebody actually thought it was nice looking enough to waste their time keying it when I could care less. I haven't even washed it since the night I bought it!

Hey, I love the thing. It's done everything I've asked of it without complaining, and most of what I put it through in a week is the hardest it will work while I own it. I just found it amusing that somebody would key it, as it has nothing on the inside that's nice, and it's dented and dirty. I probably just parked to close to them (OH NOES!)

I have plans of a custom bumper/grill guard, topper with rack that extends over the cab, smaller tires, as I think it's tall enough without a body lift or anything and to help gas mileage, step bars, and maybe a few engine mods. It's the work truck, so it won't see a whole lot of trail riding unless I go camping. It is nice at the drive in theater to have a queen air mattress thrown in back, rather then the Ranger with the twin.

I plan on running both of these trucks to the ground.

doesnt look bad at a couple feet, but the rockers are rusted pretty bad.

Its a carb 2.8L 5spd 4x4 with 160k miles on her. Id love budget lift it and some 33's but im im scared id break the d28 and 7.5. Im also worried about the 3.73 and 33's

I used to have a really funny picture that would have been perfect for this, but I can't find it.
