Like I said before. The right one will come along. The 01' was def priced high and I would have the same concerns.

The hunt continues!

You are only interested in full sizes right?
I really would rather a full sized truck, I just don't feel comfortable in a ranger/s10 platform. I am 6'2" and I just don't feel like I have enough leg room in a smaller truck.

I understand That you are not brand bashing. I know these trucks are not power houses but I think they get a bad wrap. I have a little over 120K on my 5.4L and it has never left me stranded. The only complaint I have is the cats are plugged and ssince they have 4 of the mother fwonkers they are pricey to change.

I think if that truck were not lifted and/or modified it would not be a bad route to go. (for less money of course)

:cheers:
My brother has an '01 F150 and he just had the 4 cats removed and replaced with 2 high flow Magnaflow cats. No CEL and they were $60-80 (I forget exactly how much) each.

Ive had a regular cab Ranger, 2 regular cab S10's and an S10 Blazer. I fit fine in them. Im 6'3" and was around 250#'s when I owned them (215#'s now) I do have more room in my F150 though but thats to be expected.

:lol: Well we upgraded to the F150 and now there are no space issues at all. The focus does get a little tight though.
