I've got classes going on. That's the majority of my time and no work for me currently. Been hunting a lot, ducks are everywhere but with everything freezing im starting to coyote hunt and sell the pelts for some $$$. Hate the ranger now. It is too small for my needs now and im getting terrible gas mileage (which I didn't mind in the cities but now im driving long distances for hunting and such). Would love a f150 or 250 but it will probably wait until summer when I start working again.

Just to be clear, I loved my ranger when it suited my needs when I was living in the cities. But now I need more space in the cab and bed. If I sit up straight in my seat, my head hits the ceiling. And it is storage for a lot of my hunting and soon to be ice fishing stuff. Bottom line is I need more room!

all I hear is ...blah blah whine whine cry cry...lol.

I don't get it if u are driving long distances u should be getting better gas mileage than city driving?
As for more room, get a trailer lol.

IF u get a bigger truck, u will just get more stuff and then it won't have enuff room

Lol...ok but you won't be at school forever lol.

Im just saying, u will never have enough room.
I went from a regular cab 2wd ranger, to my ext cab 4x4 ranger.
When I had my regular cab, which I had for 6 years, I said, if only I had a little more room.
Now I have a little more room in my ext cab, and now I want more room.
My dad has a big crew cab Chevy, and he still complains he doesn't have enough room to carry all his stuff.

Its like my motorcycle. For 4 years I managed with no saddle bags, just wearing a back pack to carry stuff. Now I have saddlebags, I carry alot more, and yet i still want more room to carry more crap!! Lol
I have a trailer to pull behind the bike, so i can carry even more stuff. And now when i get that full, i still look for more spots to carry more stuff.
When i went to Algona, for e bike rally, i see people with trailer full of stuff, then i see bikes with just a sleeping bag and a pillow and a few clothes...

Besides if u go and get a bigger truck...u will miss us!!
