Normally I'm pretty good about avoiding impulsive vehicle purchases, but I think I might have to give in to this one.
I spotted a '93 or '94 Ranger at a small car lot/pest control company I drive past regularly. With it being Easter weekend, I couldn't get a hold of them, but I left them a message and sent an email, so hopefully I will get a call back Monday so I can go drive it.
Nothing special...
...except, the two shifters on the floor...
Not to mention those factory buckets. Obviously the paint is rough, and some [censored] put that VHT Niteshade [censored] on the lights, but that can be fixed. Bottom line is, two shifters on the floor, factory buckets. Oh, and it's a Southern truck with no rust. And manual hubs.
I don't feel like dealing with a used car not right now, nor do I feel like breaking out the checkbook, nor do I feel like paying insurance on two trucks and tagging two trucks, but if this car lot is okay to deal with, this truck is going to have to happen I am afraid. Might not even put a tag on it right away because I don't need two vehicles, but I am worried it will be a while before I see one like this again.
Why do cool, old beaters pop up when it's kind of inconvenient to buy them?
