What are are the ranger guy's thinking....its a ranger. I'm not much on
bashing, but if were talking about ford, even the mustangs can't barely
keep up. I think everyone must have a mustang buddy with a big mouth,
all summer i didn't say a word, but about a month ago i shut my buddies
mouth. My 97' 5.2L 5-speed dakota against his 95' 5.0L 5-speed mustang,
no problem, he hasn't said a word about it since. Stock motors except we
both had exhaust....Anyway i don't think we have to worry to much about
the rangers....
