I just can't grow up its too much fun being childish (she says me blowing smoke on cars that tick me off is childish) unless she deems it useful like when the stupid bicycle riders that go out in the country and hog the road

I cannot stand the bicyclist on the narrow country road that is not on the edge. They ride in the middle like they own it. I know I will get some static for this, but it pisses me off. I have on many occasion wanted to run em over because they won't get out of the way. YES THEY ARE IN THE WAY! And they are causing traffic congestion.

That is funny. I have 32's on mine as well. Have not touched the suspension yet. I am moving to SC where there isn't smog laws. So I will be installing a V8 and have the ultimate ranger. LOL

I wish I had the 4.0. I would install a supercharger on it and have fun. But I have the 3.0 V6. It has 170,000 miles on it and is getting tired. So the V8 will be an awesome upgrade.

The 302 or 5.0 is easiest, but a 351 stroked to 427 would be real cool. Then both trucks could be Power Strokes. LOL One gas and one diesel.

It would be cool. I am not too sure of the 4.4 though. I don't want a cross-dresser either. Keeping it all FORD.
