IT the "IT" is that new lil two wheeled scooter jobbie that is supposed to revolutinize the world .... been all in the news lately ... first code name was "Ginger" Ranger .... do NOT get the four cylinder ..... I've owned perhaps five or six and maybe fifteen or twenty full size F150s .... the six cylinder Ranger is the only way to go ..it is a duplicate of the Mazda, and therefore is comparable .... The full size F150 short narrow is quite sporty, gets good reports on nearly ALL features, and really has a lot of advantages over the Ranger ---- TO ME .... cost is perhaps two grand more .. off the top of my head A good method for me to relate the diff .... seems to me that on the couple of car lots where I visit a bunch ... and, agreeed, this is totally ancedotal ... the used Rangers I see are ragged out compared to the same mileage/year model of full size F150 And as to the odometer mileage you put on one and the amount I put on ..... gosh golly gee .... Pat, I put on more miles PER WEEK than you do per year .... The used Mustang will be a great one for Killer ... I much prefer the pony to anything GM has in a similar vehicle .... and the Explorer will become J's favorite ... no matter the reason for the original purchase .... the reason I reccoed the wider tires is strictly the expansion of a physics theorem (which I forget the name) that the "wider footprint" will provide more sideways torque stability *(as in harder to rollover).... I definitely will be looking forward to your experiences with your new "IT" ... as I you are one of the few folks I know who have the purchasing power available to just get one ..... Your shifting GM dealership situation, I can understand .... thank heavens, down here ..... all the majors have great representation locally for me ..... as to the S10 and the Ranger .... the Ranger is better
