Just took the company Ranger out for a spin... Fun little truck. Had the A/C cranked up on high. Got out of the truck and my glasses fogged up.

Cavi is faster, but the work Ranger is more fun. It's a reg cab short bed 2wd, 4 banger 5 speed. If you have the A/C off, you can get 2nd gear in it...

Yup... The rear tires on that truck are worn down way more than the fronts, and nobody knows why...

no its because they disabled the front brakes so it just skids to a stop with the rear brakes all the time

I had my wheels up for sale..and I'm just now starting to get calls on them. I could use the extra cash right now, but I don't think I want to sell them now that I finally got the drop. :o
