I think that's right - the world has too many time zones to be partial to any.

Fortunately - we have ME. My sleep cycle has been wrecked since 1984

Jet airplanes landing on steel over your head can do that to you. Call it an occupational hazard.


I feel like a booky at a horse track - "PLACE YOUR BETS PLEASE! Thank you..."

*spins around*

"NEXT?"

"What? IS THE WHOLE PLANET HAVING DINNER AT ONCE????"

Actually I'm having a brew and listening to "CREED" at the moment...

lol, "which one" of my Rangers is that??? Well come on, I only have three of them!

My wife say's I'm addicted, don't know why, but Rangers are all I've ever owned.

It's my 94 XLT 3.0 5-speed. Cayman blue/tan. 114k.

Can you believe I got that truck for $950!? It was over-heating and the guy couldn't figure out why. He put a water pump in, flushed the system and all kinds of other things. I picked it up for $950 (plus some chocolate chip cookies), took it home... $30 fan clutch and an hour of my time. It's pretty much been the best Ranger I've had thus far.

Good luck to everybody!

Hey - rustle up all the wild Rangers you can! I can appreciate that...

WHAT ABOUT "MONSTER BABY"?

(Yeah I know - it was built on a shortied F100 frame. The cab carries the VIN)

Ranger is Ranger.....

Looks kinda like a pit bull, don't it?

dang i will try and get my truck finished for the next round, or the one after that,

my frame up restoration is almost done, i would like to see how many votes my truck could scare up, see signature to get idea, there is also a youtube video of my truck in my signature,

but like i said maybe the next round, or one after that for entering my truck, also there is so many great trucks, lets see some more vintage iron in the race! mind you the first yellow Aussie is mighty fine! sorry i am just biased to 1979 and older Ford trucks, but i have nothing against the new stuff, every one has there own style, and that's a good thing, otherwise our world would be a boring place,

-Brent
