I hate when my wife drags me to all kinds of stores for Christmas shopping (or any other kind of shopping). But yesterday she dragged me to Kohl's and as a result I am the proud owner of a clean 2001 Ranger XLT, 5 speed manual with hand crank windows--just the way I like them. It's a 16-valve 4-banger too! I am going from 14 mpg F150 to 28 mpg (so the book says). Still have to change my signature below. So we park the Mountaineer and there is this ranger for sale with a stick marked 66,000 miles, $3500 or best, so I caught the lady as she was leaving and said I would give her $3000 cash for it. Sweet! It drives wonderfully and has plenty of power.
