I did like the overall design. Mine looked like the following

My 3.0 liter back then was 140 hp(I looked it up). There was a 4.0 liter option back then with 20 more hp and probably way more torque. Your 4.0 ranger is listed at 207 hp in google… quite the difference. That 3.0 liter would force me to take a run at hills on the 2 lane highways if (I was...

Great coverage on the story Tim. What a cluster this trade war has become.

They were a great size of vehicle… mine was a 2002 with the extra cab rather than a crew cab so.. the bigger box. Handy for my our rental property and for towing my boat and working on the finishing of our cottage. That v8 was quick. Had to watch the mechanical limited slip when slippery. My...

I agree in part. I used to own a Dakota with a V8… great truck… a pipe dream now.

I think I have some clothes in my closet that are 20. :) I’m retired so I’m more laid back now… I still go after things like a building project, shovelling gravel or chainsawing firewood like I’m still in my 40’s ….Sometimes I pay for it right away and have to stop or sometimes it just makes me...

I’m excited to see what they offer. They need to make some good offers to keep from losing any more market share.

Sounds like a great time to change. You may need some recovery time from the massage work as well. It’s good to keep active. Try to keep from getting too frustrated. Easy for me to say… patience is not one of my strong suits. Lol

lol, I hear that… We all cope as we can. At 61, old injuries start to creep up… the compressed L1 in my back from a fall 20 years ago and the temperamental knee problems for the last 40 years. I’m thankful for my mobility. My approach is to keep an open mind and to do as many different kinds of...

That sounds pretty heavy duty… I was just thinking of over the counter Ibuprofen or something similar. Depends on your symptoms. For my back the Robax (ibuprofen + muscle relaxant) would slowly help. For my knee when it gets too inflamed just an ibuprofen. Just a thought… may need to talk to the...

I’m sorry to hear that Tim. Hang in there. Hopefully you can get some relief going forward with the massage therapist. I know my physiotherapists for my knee then my back were really great. I must be having some sympathy pain for you.. my knee locked up 2 days ago first time in almost a year...

I totally agree… I’m over 60 and I ripped my cd’s as well and dump them on a small usb drive and leave that plugged in to my truck… much better than shuffling cd’s for me.

Crazy times… then, once everything stabilizes for awhile at whatever level… OPEC will reduce production again raising oil prices.

lol, sure looks that way. It was just something I read on why some economists want tariffs in the US. Too deep in the weeds for me to follow that logic.

I’m no economist but I can see that in a limited application. A certain amount of tariffs work to keep you from being dependant on foreign sources for essential items. Free trade allows for a higher standard of living by allowing most goods to be cheaper for the average consumer. Just like...

I’ll admit that I’m pessimistic but I figured they would offer their normal incentive plans. We will see when the price of parts etc start getting hit with tariffs.

It will definitely be entertaining.

You took the words right out of my mouth. I agree on every statement you made. I subscribe to Pickup Truck and SUV talk for the balanced view without any other agenda.

Unfortunately, Stellantis halting production in Mexico and Canada makes it look like the tariff strategy is working. Will make it take longer to get settled into any agreement.

That’s interesting that RAM is up in retail sales and down in fleet sales. I wonder if they are just priced too high for fleet? Is this perhaps due to the classic no longer being available?
