iBYTE on 2 (OP) User ID: 23960959 United States 05/10/2014 02:49 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Quoting: iBYTE on 2 To be honest, my grandfather just went blind and lives near Escondido. I believe he has his ranger still, maybe an 04 buts that's just a guess. Maybe you could make a deal. Mothers Day coming up so I can ask her what's up. I would love to help a GLPer out O dam that's awesome of you but I bet I get this 05 price is right where I want it and its clean and from a actual Ford dealer not the common iron lot all over the place here in Cali. Lots of perks if I buy and dam I BET the sales rep throws in a winner winner chicken dinner. You are the best brah thank you!! |

If you have to, you have to,. If I was well off, I'd give you a grand and store it for you for when your ready to get it back. However I'm not and my chick deserves a ring which every last cent is being saved for. You are a fucking good man and a very lucky lady you got there. That's another issue I rent so I have no space to keep her because I dam well would she would be a knockout in say another 10-15 years with new paint and a new engine. They built them well the last year of the square bodies in 92. Swear to god I want to cry as silly as that sounds. She took me to and from in the best of places and darkest never failed. Thank you for those kind words brah!! And this is why I always come back to this site. I may not be able to afford a membership anymore but I love the people here. Your not alone in the struggle, we just haven't met yet If you do sell your truck, I'll call your local bar and 3 beers are on me Just call on me brother if you ever need backup! I will gladly share my membership powa with you. You know I never gave her a name but she deserves one. Long bed v6 with the better 4.0 motor. I went cheap on her the last two years with oil and other fluids and I think she felt that. I bet she could take me to Florida if I coaxed her into it? She was solid steel a real mini beast but time has gotten to her like it will to me. Bet I don't sleep tonight. It's funny because I always gave trucks male names and cars girl names....I'm glad you never gave him a girl name lol . |
iBYTE on 2 (OP) User ID: 23960959 United States 05/10/2014 02:51 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I bought a Toyota T-100 truck in 1995, it's been super reliable, about 180,000 k on it. They don't make them anymore, it's midsize with a roomy extra cab. Like OP I will rue the day of its retirement, but likely... Quoting: Anonymous Coward 32936252 That's a bad ass truck my good friend has one with a v6 I know they made them with the v8 too. That truck will probably still be running when man finally steps on Mars I tell yeah. |

My wifes 09 Altima Coupe is wicked fast very classy and I love the CVT trans even though I know its something I will never be able to service on my own. 8 quarts at 10-12 dollars of CVT fluid every 30k at service bugs me though. |

iBYTE on 2 (OP) User ID: 23960959 United States 05/10/2014 03:01 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I remember when my Ranger hit 100k I was like o shit here we go lol! now at 382k its o shit and goodbye. I wish I had a place to park it I would keep it. Truck never needed anything until around 250k that was a water pump and alternator. Like I said it was because I went cheap two years ago that's where my issues started. |
