Hi! I’ve got a long love story with my ranger danger… which you can read below or skip lol
I bought him (yes my truck is a dude lol) in 01 when he was 6 years old (manufactured 11/95 as a 96 model year) and I was 19. I maintained him religiously and he never left me stranded. We bopped thru life thru the death of my dogs, my wedding and when we found out I was carrying my first child in 2008… which was about the time his odometer hit 200,000 miles. Because my family would need more seats I traded him to my dad, who later sold him to my cousin… in 2015 on the heels of loosing my 4th child my wonderful hubby bought him back for me…TMU, rusted, ripped and running rough… since then he has been road legal sporadically as he is still impractical as a daily driver for my family of 5. As we are both now falling victim to our old age and earlier punishments in looking forward to putting him back together in ways I can’t do to myself lol
thanks in advance for your help and understanding as most people in my circle don’t understand that a good truck is like an old friend
