Hey guys. New from southeast Texas. New to this site, but not to forums or Fords. I've had a couple Ford trucks so far.
I am currently about to scrap my current Ford which is a 1990 Ford Ranger 4x4 with 4.0. I bought it 3 years ago for 650 and have had nothing but problems with it do to previous owners not taking care of it and I don't want to deal with it anymore or make anybody else mess with it.
My first Ford was a 1989 Ford F-250 with F-350 rear suspension on 32" tires. I still have it but it has been temporarily retired due to it getting horrible mileage and having 400,000 miles on it with no rebuild. It got 4 mpg on a good day. It has a 351w with C6 auto trans. Single cab long bed.
I was going to keep the Ranger and just DD it until I could get something else when I got the money or sold it. But about a month ago (8/23/2013), my mom passed away and I got her 2006 Nissan Xterra 2wd.
Now I am considering bringing the F-250 back to life and turning it into a toy. It's only 2wd, so I am thinking about just turning it into a hot rod. Yes. I know that sounds stupid, but I would be switching out the rear end for something better suited and doing allot of weight reduction.
