I seen no problems with you putting chains on the stock setup. You'll also have no problem putting 16's with bigger tires even.

The suspension on the rangers is going to be stiffer though due to the fact that they have a torsion bar suspension.

overall I think you'd be very happy with a ranger as your hunting rig. They are great little trucks! They are much cheaper to buy, fix, and maintain compared to the Toyota's.

Good luck with your decision making and let us know what you decide!
I agree too. You'll be more happy with the ranger. You can do way more with rangers than any other truck and they are fun to drive, especially the 4.0!
