nurkvinny Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 I have had this thing up to AT LEAST 70mph. I got scared though, and had to let out... http://nurkvinny.com/images/Vehicles/Trucks/2003%20Ranger/DSC00046.JPG Seriously though, if anyone knows where there are some nice Ranger interior parts for sale, let me know. This thing has a 100% plastic interior. A cloth seat and carpet would be nice. It's an '03, if that matters for interior pieces. And, if you didn't guess, it's a 2.3 / 5 speed... quite possibly the SLOWEST damn thing I have ever sat in. 80 miles so far, and the gas gauge still reads full. Ex-Orkin trucks FTW.

Derek, you do remember that the 01.5 and newer ranger 2.3's are the Duratecs right? I wouldnt risk the cintered(sp?) rods with boost, but thats me.

suffocateXfaster1647545505 Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 I've always liked Rangers. I originally was going to get one back in the day for my highschool daily commute but ended up getting the SHO instead. Rangers are pretty solid little trucks. Come on you know that 2.3 is a beast, you don't need to lie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nurkvinny Posted November 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 Ha, what happened to this thread? The Ranger is staying 100% stock under the hood. This is strictly for a 30mpg daily driver. I already have a "quick" mini truck. Yes, I still have the Ram and the bike. The Ram has very few miles on it; I'm going to try and keep it that way. Probably sell the Ranger off next Summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
