Why do you have your current truck thread

My assumption

Damn dude.... An 86, with less than 100k? How much did you pay for it? If you don't mind me asking, that is.

Well, let me clarify by saying I assume less than 100K. The odometer doesn't have the 6th place, and right now it is showing 99,950.8 miles. But, I get the feeling, knowing the background on the truck, that if it had rolled over once already it would be in a much more worn condition.

Having said that, I paid $500 for it.

Well the reason I got mine was because I was tired of driving a car and wanted a truck again. I looked far and wide and a mid-size truck didnt even cross my mind. I went to a dealership and the dealer said Rangers have a $6000 rebate. O heck yea! That meant I could get a 2011 Ranger for cheaper than a 2005 F150! I test drove a red one, was fairly impressed, and when I came back to the lot, the ***y beast that I currently own was sitting in my parking spot. I fell in love and took her home! And what a deal I got on it!

My previous car had been out of service for almost 2 years, so I had gotten used to driving my moms 4runner. So when the hurricane came the end of august and flooded my car :-( I decided I wanted a pickup. I actually wanted to get an extended cab with 4wd, bur when I saw this sitting in the lot, I fell in love.

bought mine because i started out with a dodge ram 3500 cummings and when gas was almost 5 a gallon down graded to super compact cars that lasted a few months and so on, bought an 83 ranger loved it but killed the motor in it, then later got another ranger and sold it because it was a money pit, went back to a car, then when i got my ice shake built i needed something to haul it so i bought the ranger i have now and i love it, the 4.0 is perfect to hauling my shack to the lake and for everyday life, and it works good for camping
