Ranger earned its keep once again!

Hey Everyone,

I just thought I'd let you all know that my truck earned its keep once again. I just got a job (FINALLY, after 11 months) and had to move about 125 miles north from where I was living.

I was able to get all of my stuff in the truck and a 5' x 8' U-Haul trailer. It was a LOT of weight for that 3.0 AT to pull, but it did it without complaint (almost).

It did act up on me again with its hesitation issues after driving for awhile when I tried to maintain 55 mph. For some reason it was fine at 65. One of these days I'll figure this out.

All in all, I was impressed, as always. I can't believe how much abuse that truck gets, and it just keeps going and going!
