And I didn’t snap oversteer into any crowds. But the rear brakes did lock up while braking lightly on a damp concrete offramp. The steering is a suggestion and I thought I was going to die on the freeway at 80. The gears all grind. The windshield angle is such that I need windshield wipers in the snow (I don’t in my outback). It does have torque though but it’s useless with no weight in the bed and rwd. It does one thing well and only one thing; it hauls furniture. I got back in my subaru tonight and breathed a sigh of relief. Oh and at least I know how to drive in boots without revving to 3500 when releasing the clutch.......................
Tl;dr don’t buy a Ford truck from the 90's unless you are a budget carpenter or need to regularly haul shit for cheap

I know snap-over steer all too well. I rolled a 2wd V6 Nissan Frontier 2.5 years ago, the box was empty. I don’t remember much, but I had to kick out the passenger window to get out. The accident scene analyst figured I was doing 65kph when it over steering, 60kph when it hit the tree and caused it to roll.
I only had a small cut on my arm, and some 1st degree burns from the air bags.

As an owner of a Ranger I 100% agree with you.
I know your brother will throw a fit over this but really, they’re just cheap trucks. And no weight RWD can be fun, but it is useless.

Aww, I like the Ranger.
At least in principle... I’ve never actually driven one. O_o

He’s my brother, he was actually driving my truck. He got an earful when he got home. But its okay, because I hated his Subaru more than he hated my Ranger

I have a 2000 explorer bumper and fogs to go on my 1993 ranger, those housings are glass. I wonder if it’ll work

it might, but it’s just difficult to get paint to stick to glass. Nothing to “bite” into.
