3.slow wont be able to beat either one. That synthetic oil and E3 plugs are not power adders

Re: vehicles a ranger can beat???
If I recall a 2006 PSD is around 325-350 HP and around 560 torque
They could stay in probably 3rd gear and beat a ranger

You know what a 3L Ranger could beat? An AMC Pacer, those things were slower than molasses!

Re: vehicles a ranger can beat???
i disagree with u all i think his truck will deffly beat the vw... im not too sure about the f250 but it is substancially heavier than the ranger but it does have plenty more power... i raced a 2009 dodge charger srt10 in my 2.3L and gave it a run for its money... not once was he more than maybe a couple feet ahead of me... and everytime i shifted i would pull up ahead of him... he coulda just been terrible at his stick shift in his $40,000+ car tho

Re: vehicles a ranger can beat???
Our 06 Beetle with the 2.5 is pretty fast.
The closer of the races would be the VW and Ranger. I still think the VW would take the ranger.
