Found another diesel powered Ranger on fleabay. this had to have been brought back to the US from mexico. but who cares? its dang cool. this is the first crew cab ranger ive ever seen. always wanted one to match my big crew cab diesel 4x4. this ones a bit out of my price range.

 

I would love to have that also, cool!!

 

It looks like that truck would be the perfect match to yours. I wonder if it is hard to get parts for one of those?

 

I love it!
But how can it only get 20 - 24 mpg?
My 5 spd gas Ranger 10 years ago got 24, and my 7400# PSD got 21 a few years back.
You'd think it would get a lot better than that?

 

That thing looks amazing! Good thing I don't have the money to spend right now...

 

I especially love the 2.8 powerstroke on the intake.
that mileage would be better with the proper driver im thinking.it is just not fair that the epa keeps us from having great vehicles like that.i would bet it would not pass emmisions in states that require it...not that it would stop me...haha

 

I'm going to to go TX and remove the truck from the owners possession and revoke his authority to ever own another pickup again because he called the bed a trunk. He is obviously unworthy of such a vehicle.

 

Yeah I caught that too. I am guessing that English isn't the first language of the person selling that truck... Nice looking truck though. It looks to me like it must be mechanically injected since you can see the individual fuel lines to the injectors. I want one! That or a 4BT in a 4x4 Ranger...

 

Seen a 4BT ranger on ebay about a year ago i think he said he was getting 45mpg. I wish I'd have bought that one. this one is just too expensive or I'd go get it.

 

I've got a 2000 Ranger that I have thought seriously about doing a 4bt swap to someday.

 

I talked to a guy a couple weekends ago that has done several 4BT swaps into rangers and he said that 40-45 MPG is not hard to obtain with a standard cab 4x2 Ranger. He said that the swap isn't difficult to do, just time consuming. The thing that sucks is that it is catching on so a good 4BT will set you back about $3k around here unless you're just plain lucky.

 

I'll bet finding parts would be a pain.

 

I think most of the parts can be bought from Cummins since they still have so many of those engines out there. The 4BT is used in everything from construction and farm equipment to bread trucks.

It would be a whole new take on the "Fummins", lol.

 

I just gave one away on flea bay for 500 two weeks ago

 

You're kidding me! Lol. That sucks! I would have given you more than that for it unless it was fragged...
