At least your are hauling stuff! I rarely see these trucks as work trucks. They have pristine paint jobs! I remember hauling Christmas trees for a scout project with my tiny utility trailer and my minivan (no truck at the time). I guy helping us had a F150 and didn't want to haul anything...
.....and the truck manufacturers are charging $40K, $50K, $60K and on up with 72 month loans for these beauty queens. They are laughing all the way to the bank.
For sure! My Dad had this little Datsun '78 620! Sold it in '95 when I left for college. You would not believe what this truck did...it out did most of the larger truck owners I know.

I am looking at rebuilding a 2005+ Ranger 4WD that has had a LIGHT hit with no airbags deployed. I am seeing these go on the...
Hi all,
I have a '93 2wd 2.3L Ranger that I want to upgrade to the same ride height and look as a similar year 4X4 Ranger. I may also plan on doing something with the differential (some sort of locker?) at some point as well.
I will not be doing any serious off roading, maybe some gravel roads...
