Yup, 3.0 EFI. It was quick. Short step-side bed and standard cab, so pretty light too. Had a TIGHT turn radius. Would turn on a dime and give ya 9 cents change. Too small to haul much, but all I had to haul was a few electrical tools and some electrical safety gear. I was hired for what was in my head, not my arms or back. My job was telling the electricians what to do, not doing it. Didn't need a full-size truck for that. The owner of the company told me to go pick one out, so I did. I had the only Ford and only mid-size truck in the bunch, and it was probably the most reliable truck we had.You must have had the v6 in your ranger. I had a 94 Ford ranger with the 4 cyl, 5 speed. That thing was a slugyou had to red line it in each gear for it to get out of its own way, let alone someone else's
Did drive and shift really nice though

I had one as a kid!!! Loved it! Me and my friends spent hours and days with that toy. They all got one!
I found new ones online a few years ago. My wife bought me one. It's still in the box.... It's too hard to bend over and crank it.
