Where's everybody from?

Winston-Salem, 87 Ranger STX Supper Cab 4x4, 92 Jeep YJ. Almost forgot the 68 Pickup, An old work horse who's straight 6 finaly gave up at about 350,000. Was gettin about 10 miles to the quart. I just picked up the ranger off ebay for $610, and the only thing I had ta do to it ( aside from drivin up to Allintown PA to resscue it form the yankie rednecks) was put a steering gear box n a power steering pump on it. And it has almost zero rust! I wish someone could explane that to me, cause my jeep is a rust bucket compared to it. I'm so proud of the thing I could ramble alday about it. Anyways, born n raised here...

Mark, thats a nice truck dude. You only had to drop 610 for it thats a steal. I own a '99 Ranger 4X2 love the truck. I live in Charlotte, actually more like South Charlotte I can throw a rock across the street and hit Pineville. Later

I've lived in Durham for the past 25 years...
I was born in Sparta (I think I saw a post from Elkin, which is close).
I have a 1999 3.0L Ranger, an all original 1961 Galaxie (26K
miles), and a 1921 "T" waiting on a guy to finish the restoration..

I just joined this site...I'm impressed!!!
