It's good to know you are lting. if what you say is true there were obvious differences in the two. The exact truck which was a 2wd stick onee was a 97 with 4.0 and other is the new 4.0. the new one did the quater mile over a second and a half quiker. but maybe your truck is just really fast

I don't know about any good shops in fresno i have only lived here for about three months and only come in contact with two, whiplash and 4wpw and i hate both of them. College is supposed to be more important then my truck right now anyways.
I'm sure a ranger can beat a trans am 350. sounds feasable. what you got in that ranger supercharged 302
its a 78 TAand i got a stock 4.0 v6
hay i don't sayanything to you like that and its not my falt that the old (78)Ta's are slow i mean there like 17's in the 1/4 so go back out west and get lost!

If my info is correct, the Ranger Edge that you drove had a 3.0 in it. You cannot get a 4.0 in a 4x2 Edge nor the 4-door option. At least I couldn't, it is not even in their brochure. I got the 4x4, which includes 4.0 and 4-door.
Happy Rangering.....
well i live in canada so that might have somthing to do with it??? and i poled the hod and it was a 4.0 sohc 4x2 ex cab with 3.73 pois and if you don't thing so come up and see it

No, I don't need to make the trip, I'll take your word for it. I was aware that some of the "configurations" were different in Canada. That is the setup I wanted, but, they don't offer it here.
Thanks for the info.....
in canada all most all new 4x4 rangers and most edge are 4.0 it is hard to find a 3.0 in the new truck
