:Y:

Thats what i am hoping i am bleeding money on the other one
so enough is enough :argh:

My old man has one. It goes really well. The clutch is a bit of a bastard though and it's hard not to spin the wheels as the motor likes to rev out to perform how it's meant to compared to some others where there is a bit more at the bottom end but not so much at the top.

Well it's not a hilux so you should be fine.

Hi mate just sold my ranger same year and model had great run out of it and sold at 369000 kms, if you get it i would recomend fitting a ozbush mapper and block the Egr makes a world of difference to power and fuel economy, it lifted my fuel economy from 11L per 100 to 8.9l :Y:

 

[Banjo68]

I did the same with my 08 ranger EGR.
And I agree. It did make a difference :Y:
Mine has 359k on the clock. Had 120k when I bought it
Has been a great truck. Plenty of power fo towing

 

[thedigger]

I have that model,the exhaust had to be replaced,apart from that very happy!!

 

[Banjo68]

Not sure if there is any difference between the MazdaBT and the Ford Rangers
Would like to know

 

[Banjo68]

[7.62marksman]

[7.62marksman]

Had words with them on Thursday and they can out with the truth that they are so busy that they are doing mine in between jobs
I informed then that the veh should have been roadworthy before being put on the lot for sale
So they have lent me a 33k hilux until mine is ready not that i needed it but took it on principal..
