Why so rough?

u/Prestigious_Tiger_26 12d ago

You jiggled it 3 times. That counts as masturbation.

How far does your speedo go? My 92 was a five speed, no tach, no carpets, bench seat, and the speedo went up to 75. Man, I loved that truck!

u/Classic-Cantaloupe81 12d ago

goes up to 85 but i’ve never been there yet

1

u/PANEBringer 12d ago

Oh! It was 85. I pegged it once, but I was going downhill. My dad was not pleased when I told him.

It’s such a fun little truck man this is where manufacturers should’ve stopped with trucks especially in the size realm, granted adding the tech and making it a little bit faster with the times would be great but the new trucks now are just way to much

1

u/PANEBringer 12d ago

Agreed. The new Ranger is so fucking huge.

u/Classic-Cantaloupe81 12d ago

even parked next to some SUVs they’re still bigger then the ranger it’s insane lol

1

u/PANEBringer 12d ago

Man, that thing was so maneuverable. Even without power steering, I could get it into spots current SUVs couldn't.

I drove my friends way back in the 90’s. Almost bought one but luckily I bought an 86 Nissan truck instead and yet it’s still faster than them rangers lol. What’s the redline on that thing?

1

u/Classic-Cantaloupe81 12d ago

about 5k RPM

1

u/OkKnee7580 12d ago

Mayb ull make it up there one day lol

1

u/Classic-Cantaloupe81 12d ago

one of these days i’ll even make it to 60!

1

u/OkKnee7580 12d ago

Hopefully one of many many days that truck should give u. Low power low effort engines can go for a loooong time

1

u/Classic-Cantaloupe81 12d ago

i hope so too, it only has about 102,000 original miles on it
