Default Hi, New member from FL
I have owned my 97 for about 4 years now. I do my own maintenance on both my truck and motorcycle. My ranger is a 1997 excab with the 2.3 and the 5 speed manual. I really love it.

I use the truck to get around, haul by boat, and pick things up. I usually use the bike for just getting around though.

I do have some questions but I will save them for the tech section

welcome to the forum and thats good that your I4 ranger is good at towing a decent sized boat, that makes the 4.0 seem almost unstoppable
