    Just bought a truck today!

    I had been using my boss's spare truck to scrap with for the last month and today I finally purchased a vehicle of my own. 1990 Ford Ranger XLT, Extended Cab 2.9 V6 4x4, only 60k miles and I got it for $880. Can't wait to get scrappin'!

    I had an 89 Ranger regular cab 4X4 with a 4 cyl. That think took a beating and kept coming back for more. The most I ever had on it was 2200lb and it didn't even act like the weight was there.

    Congrates, I had a 86 Bronco 2 with the 2.9 and the thing couldn't be killed.
