2000 Ford Ranger XLT, 2.5L, 2WD, 5 Speed

My older brother had owned this truck since 2008. I had always enjoyed the truck when visiting him in Illinois. When he decided to think about selling it I jumped at the opportunity after trying not-too-hard to talk him out of it. I wanted to buy it so he could always have the option to get it back if he missed it enough. This 2000 Ranger is such a sweet truck it's turned into my daily driver. This so I can keep the miles of of my 10th anniversary Rubicon. I look forward to driving it every day. It's a great running truck that gets 10 mpg better than the Jeep. I get a lot of joy out of transforming everyday vehicles into something that surprises others. All it took was some elbow grease, a little charge to the a/c coolant and a new radiator and it runs and drives as good as new. From the Illinois countryside back to Nebraska for some TLC and it's now happily living in the city, garaged and away from mice and dust. Anytime it's wanted it's ready to return to the country. Thanks, brother for trusting me with your gem of a Ranger.

Phenomenal job. Looks like a different truck. I'm sure your brother is happy with the transformation. I've always loved the work you do. Taking everyday and somewhat neglected vehicles, and giving them a new lease on life. Looks like you've found your niche
