    I need a daily driver!?

    I'm going to purchase a dialy driver of my own finally. The ranger that I've been driving was a loaner. I can't decide with I want. Help me out here guys.

    90-93 lx trunk. Lightly modified or stock

    93-95 lightning

    96-98 cobra

    or a newer truck capable of pulling my car.

    I can't decide. The lightning would be perfect, but it's kinda hard to find a nice one around. Let me know guy's I want to buy somthing in the next month or so. Let me know if there is anybody you know that needs me to take one of these vehicles off there hands.

    I think the Lightning would work sweet as the tow vehicle, that would be my choice.

    I agree sean, now I just have to find 1 with under 80k miles and in nice condition. I found a mustang in houston that I'm pretty dead set on getting though. It's in the corral classifieds, a couple of days ago. the header says 91 coupe in houston area or somthing like that. it is a sweet car, I just can't seem to scrape together enough pennies for it.

    Good luck in your search, just keep in mind that it does pay off in the long run to take your time. I looked for about 1.5 yrs before I bought my 92, it's amazing the amount of crap out there that people want an arm & a leg for.

    Very nice!! I wish that I had found a coupe but they were just too hard to come by around here and I got a decent deal on my one-owner hatch.

    Can we vote on this? If so I vote for the truck. :)

    I've been hunting for the right blown-motor supercab Ranger for a couple few years now, had a line on a '92 just last week that was "free to a good home" & just about 3 hours away - at the last minute he decided to keep it. :(

    My plan is to build a healthy, reliable 302 Ranger "mini-lightning" on a super low budget. I've had the motor and a set of 95 Cobra rims all lined up for it. Other than finding the elusive almost free Ranger, the hardest part has been getting my wife to agree that we need a 4th vehicle parked in our driveway... :)

    What about turning the new coupe into the NOVI monster and use your GT for daily?
