We havea 3.0 v6 ranger here at work and boy does it suck balls lol. I thought it was a 4cly until i hopen the hood and I was like dang its a v6 [:o] it is the slowest v6 motor ive ever driven, pretty whippy for like 18 grand . They probaly are reliable but not powerfull.

Just do this to it!!

if you get a ranger, get the 4.0- barely worse on gas the the 3.0, but a lot mroe power

Did you photoshop a mustnag front end on a ranger?
You just got caught street racing and you are asking how fast a ranger is? Did you learn a lesson the first time, or maybe it takes totaling your car for you to get the point.

WHAT WHERE AND HOW DID YOU GET COUGHT STREET RACING


I GOT COUGHT SPECTATING AND THEY GAVE ME A

PARTICIPATING IN A SPEED CONTEST ON HIGHWAY
IT WAS A 295 FINE AND A 8 POINT CHARGE

THEY GAVE OUT 49 TICJETS THAT NIGHT

BUT I GOT A LAWYER AND I WAS ONE OF THE LAST CASES BECAUSE I WAS OUT OF COUNTY SO BY THAT TIME THE OFFICER DIDNT EVEN SHOW UP BECAUSE OTHER CASES HAD GOTTEN THROWN OUT BECAUSE ALL THE BS THE POLICE DID LIKE TAKING OUR LICENSES AND MAKING US DRIVE HOME WITH OUT THEM HAVING NO EVIDENCE AGAINST US AND THEN LOSING ABOUT 1/2 OF THE LICENSES THEY TOOK BUT MY LAWYER CUT ME A DEAL BEINGS HE DIDNT EVEN HAVE TO FIGHT SO I MADE IT OUT OK

BUT NOW THE ONLY THING IS ITS ON MY RECORD FOR 3 YEARS AS FOUND NOT GUILTY IN THE COURT OF LAW SO IT WILL SHOW UP ON A BACK GROUNG CHECK EVEN THOUGH I WAS FOUND INOCENT

AND I CANT GET IT REMOVED BECAUSE IN MD THE ONLY WAY TO GET SOMETHING REMOVED IS IF THAT CHARGE WOULD HAVE BEEN A JAIL TIME SENTANSE

my dad has the 3.0, but its 2004. I would never buy a Ranger but I think it's sufficient vehicle. stiff ride. I would never get the 4cyl.
I wouldnt pay much extra to get the 4.0, but if its an option, shoot for it. 4x4 would be more important to me, due to the panic attack that spreads during bad weather in my state.

i OWNED a 01 3.0 V6 ranger.....it had a 3 inch body lift, 33X12.50's....had a few bolt-ons...ONE GUTLESS S.O.B......DO NOT GET THE 3.0...take it from me, you will regret it! I went from my truck to my stang about 3 months ago.

Good news I wont have to sell my car. and I was racing my friends is 300. I had a bumper on him until 3rd, he got me at the end by half a car(0-75). Ya and my court date is jan. 28 Im scared. btw ill b 17 on nov 26. ticket for a speed contest and carying a passenger under 20 with a restricted licence. How harsh do you think the punishment will be???

probably you will lose your license until youre 18 and thats how it should be.


Also, I have a hard time believing you were beating an is300.

I WAS 17 WHEN I GOT MINE I WAS OFF OF THE RESTRICTIONS (NIGHT DRIVING AND CARRYING PASSANGERS) BUT I STILL HADNT TURNED 18 YET WHICH STILL MENT I HAD TO WAIT TIL I WAS 18 UNTIL I WAS OFFICIALY OFF OF MY PROVISIONALS


IF I WOULD HAVE GOT THE FINE THEY TOLD ME I WOULD LOOSE LICENSE TIL 18 THEN HAVE TO RETAKE DRIVERS ED AND MY DRIVIVNG WITH PARRENT AND THE PROVISIONALS THEN I WOULD HAVE TO TAKE DIP CLASSES (DRIVERS IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM) AND THEN I WOULD BE UNDER PROBATION UNTIL 21

HOPE YOU CAN GET A GOOD LAWYER AND HOPEFILLY THEIR ARE SOME LOOP HOLES IN THE CASE BUT I GUESS IF IT WAS JUST 2 CARS RACING AND NO WITNESSES OR 100 OTHER CARS THE COPS COULD CONFUSE YOU WITH THEN THEIR IS KNOW WAY YOU CAN REALY FIGHT IT AT ALL BECAUSE THEIR IS NO CONFUSION THAT BOTH CARS WERE RACING

ALSO WHAT IS YOUR FUTUR CAREER GOING TO BE BECAUSE IM GOING TO SCHOOL FOR AUTOMOTIVE AND DIESEL AND I ACTUALY GOT A NOTE FROM MY COLLAGE SAYING THAT IF I GOT POINTS ON MY LICENSE IT WOULD SERIOUSLY HURT MY CAREER AND JUDGES WILL SOMETIMES DROP THE POINTS OR DROP TO A LESSER CHARGE BUT UP THE FINE JUST A HAIR JUST SO IT DOESNT RUIN YOUR CAREER

Man iam glad I live in Texas :Dwe don't have that stuped point system here

How were you beating an IS300? They have 65hp more than you and only weigh 100-150 pounds more. That driver must have not been racing or didn't know how to drive the car, or you are making it up that you won. I got participating in speed contest and unsafe start tickets when I turned 18. I didn't lose my license though, I think it was because I got the tickets in a different state than my license was issued from.

yea certain states are are diff points systems like the 8 10 or 12 point system those are the 3 i know of im sure their are more but a state with the 8 point system like pa the points dont transfer to md wich is a 10 or 12 point and they dont trade with jersey ny or de either
