Re: rangers are no longer being made

Regardless of the specs of the "Global" Ranger or whatever
Ford names it, that new truck, or what appears to be a truck
is NO Ranger and not even of the same blood lines!

Re: ranger vs f150

That's the way I see it!

However to be fair there are instances, specifically in
racing and off roading where ABS, even disc brakes
would be a hindrance. In dirt racing you want the

Re: ranger vs f150

Ask Darkstar_420 to explain it. He was the one that said
he knew of NO Rangers being used as fleet vehicles in

Re: ranger vs f150

I could understand the F 150's n Canada, but not
for most of the US. I do know of companies that use
Rangers as their fleet trucks.

Drum brakes last longer because they are NOT as

Re: ranger vs f150

F 150 is just to dang big...PERIOD!
Regardless to mpg it's still big!
And no way around it, regardless to mpg, the F 150 will
cost more to operate than a Ranger.

I don't want a BIG truck, I...

Re: Rear Bumper Ball Hitch

My 02 didn't have it....
But then again you can't expect to haul 4000 lbs in
such a way either...

It's not useless by any means. Just got to be careful.

Re: Rear Bumper Ball Hitch

That's the safe bet. If you got the money, definitely
put it on.. But don't be scared to use the bumper
hitch in the meantime.

Re: Rear Bumper Ball Hitch

I only had a bumper ball hitch on my 02 and it worked fine
for light towing. I have towed up to around 3000 lbs with it
with nary a problem. I have a 12x5' trailer that I have towed
big mowers...

However you left out a couple details.
Comparing buying a F-150 you stated fuel
economy and pricing. However to me and others
SIZE would be a big or bigger factor...
