Smile New Ford Convert

High all!

Just joined up here. Been reading your great forums for a few months trying to decide if I should make the change to Ford. I've been a GM fan for a good while, and haven't owned a Ford for maybe 27 years. My last PU was a 1984 Chevy S10 I bought in 1989. The old S10 had 192,000 miles on it and served me well, but it was on it's last leg. I've always liked the looks of the Ford Ranger and started reading these forums to see what people were saying about them. I noticed alot of people really loved their Ranger, so I went against a neibhors advice and bought a 1996 Ranger XLT 4.0l OHC 4 speed Auto. It only had 42,000 miles on it and looked about new in and out. In the two months I've owned the truck I've put over 4,000 miles on it, and I have to agree with what alot of people are saying here, Cool Truck!, so far I'm loving the Ranger.
