Still going.  Talking to Smog about the Art bench and how she can fix a head gasket.

Considering that audio wiring is a fraction of a percentile the difficulty of an automotive head gasket replacement on a modern engine, while similar in the type of intelligence needed to complete the task, she is incapable of doing that type of work, period.

She's had too many problems with wiring issues.
Eh, nevermind...

I've replaced head gaskets, but never fixed one.

I went thru 2 with my Ford Ranger that had a radiator too small for the engine.  Ford saved a few $$, but not me.

What year? I had a 93 ranger. Almost all of them had that same rust under the passenger door window. Mazda made that engine, didn't they? Or was it Izuzu?

1990.  Other than blowing a head gasket every few years it was a nice little truck.

I remember that mine used to drive real sluggish until I was towing 7,500 lb, then it felt right at home.

Mine was an auctioned vehicle from a sewage treatment plant. It looked like the Titanic underneath. I foolishly got rid of it after the water pump went south and all the tires needed to be replaced because of dry rot.  Oh and some line that was involved in acceleration had rusted and was touchy.
Eh, nevermind...

Not a ranger but similarly sized truck. Anyone remember the GMC typhoon S10/small blazer platform trucks from back in the 90s?  Those were fun. Clearly not for towing or anything though.

All my vehicles seem to go too fast, but they never tow anything   :-X

I once saw a Bentley (at a Walmart of all places) with a tow hitch. Retrospectively, I guess it could have been for one of those powered wheelchair holders or something, but I had a good laugh at the time...

We have officially turned this into a Truck Thread!  :)

Nice and oh-so organically done, fellas!  :)

Rangers have undergone a new design in the last 5-7 years. They do not look like the Rangers that we have been discussing. In fact, they resemble a scrunched-up F-150.
