Rangers blow. They have the highest rollover rate of any 4x4 (applies to the 4x4 model only). If you are looking at older trucks look at any old B series, or Toyota. BULLETPROOF. were talking 500 + km to the engine no problems. BUT if you must have a 4x4, then look into a older Izusu.

If it does what you need it, who cares really. Good commuter truck for what you need it to do, but when it comes to truck things, the Pickup guys look for such as hauling and 4x4ing, it won't really perform. Still a solid truck for the basic man, has been doings its job for decades.

A few months ago some guy was selling THREE lifted 86 toyotas for like $1200 each, and nothing was really wrong with them. Wish I had the chance to get... two of them. biggrin:

lol...Thats probably my least favorite show. Stoney is okay but fuckin wojo is so annoying. Especially at 5pm when I get off work and he does that whistling shit EVERY FUCKING DAY.

Jamie and Brady I enjoy the most
