    I'm experiencing the same thing. Hoping to get my 47 Truck project back on-track, or sell it and buy Jimmy's truck!

    Home Depot can rent you a truck by the hour. Seems cheaper for occasional projects than buying a truck.

    Yeah, but it was mighty slow for all the noise and expensive tires.

    The last three times I moved I just rented a Home Depot truck and made multiple trips with it. Very cheap and easy, I'll likely do it again.

    I owned an 82 S-10 for 9 years and a 91 Ranger for 3 years. The S-10 rode better than the Ranger, but the Ranger was built better. The Ranger would really bounce you around on a rough road, but it would just float down a smooth highway. The Ranger had an extended cab which was really nice to have.

    I miss the Ranger, but not the S-10 even though it was the first new vehicle I ever purchased.

    I've been watching this site for a tow vehicle. Looks like mostly work trucks, nothing fancy, mostly white.

    4.3 vortec s-10 good. 4 cyl S-10 bad. Fact. Dunno first hand bout Rangers but would likely take one anyway since Ford quality control > GM 's.

    They seem a little proud of their vehicles. You might be better off watching CL.

    Might make a trip out to lavon. There is a repair shop that also deals used cars. The prices seem decent and the trucks don't look too bad. It's at the corner of 78 & 205. They have a few rangers there as of today.

    4.3 Vortec, the Ranger suspension is too soft for my tastes on a pull.
