Before this truck I owned the same truck as above, only red. It couldnt hack it. The engine was fun, but the truck couldnt do the job I needed it to.

Thanks Dave!
May i ask what engine you had before?

5.3 Vortec, chipped, headers, exhaust. It was more of a sport truck than a work truck. It was pretty fast at the time.

Speaking of beer, time to sit on the back deck and have a couple, beautiful night up around here. See you guys after a bit.

I also had a 4.0 ranger before the chev. Loved that truck too!! Yeah, the chip really woke it up, let it do what it wanted to do.

My 4.0 ranger was chipped with exhaust and it was killer. Not super fast but it would sure pull through the gears and keep up with some pretty fast cars.
