Get a regular Ranger with the 2.7 EcoBoost V6. Heard good things about it. Regular truck with a bit of kick.

re: Advice on truck purchase
Posted by Them on 4/17/25 at 8:26 pm
I have a 2024 Silverado 1500 with the 3.0L Duramax and I can’t recommend it enough. Smooth, quiet, powerful, great fuel economy (roughly 21/28 in real life)
However. If you know you are going to be doing a lot of short trips and around town driving, I don’t necessarily recommend the diesel as you will plug up the emissions stuff over time and that will cause big expensive problems down the road.
Honestly, buying a half-ton truck from any brand means you’re getting that brand’s best product, so I recommend you drive a few of them and buy the one you like.
There will be good ones and less good ones, but just remember that for every horror story you hear about a Ford or a Ram or whatever else, there are 5000 other people who bought the same trucks and had zero issues with theirs.

Flames ended up coming back from 3-1 down and winning in a shootout too. This blows. I hope Joel Eriksson Ek’s pillow is too warm tonight.

Praying on the Wild and Blues' downfall tonight. One losing in regulation is great, both losing in regulation would be amazing. Flames have a game in hand on both so we would have a win-and-in game Thursday against LA.
Flames still have a job to do regardless of the out of town scoreboard. Vegas resting a bunch of starters tonight helps us out a lot.
Do or die again.

Basically a do or die for Calgary tonight.
Then again, the other night against Anaheim was also do or die and we gave up 2 goals in the last 3 min to tie and then lost in OT. :lol: :banghead:

When I played tennis for Centenary, Mississippi College had a guy on their team who was either graying very early or he was about 40. Everyone on their team called him Dad.

You can navel gaze on the Internet until the second coming. Maybe Ram owners are too busy putting racing stripes on their rides to spend all day complaining on the Internet? You also have what appears to be a good bit of astro-turfing arguments trying to direct people to file/join class action cases. The law firms can pay for the keyword optimization to make sure that the first ten pages of any search are going to be doom and gloom.
All completely true. You have to realize that with the sheer volume of full-size trucks that GM and Ford sell annually, in the literal millions, there are going to be bad ones, but for every bad one you hear about, there's probably 500-1000 more that will not have any issues whatsoever.

The Ram uses a ZF 8 speed which doesn't have as much bad chatter out there.
The 8HP has been out in its various forms since 2012 and has been put in probably 10 million vehicles since then, between Audi BMW and DCJR, so I would not worry about the transmission in a new Ram. It is one of the better automatic transmissions ever made, from an overall perspective.

You fricking clown. Good beef isn't fattening. Now all the sides and sauces pussies like you use, will blow you up.
Also, you buy the strip because you're poor and can't handle the high $, except for your pathetic 6 oz filet (how cute)
This thread is really about you wondering how real man can handle up paying for the larger priced stuff.
Simply put, your the outcast.
You just got road rage over a message board post about big steaks in a grocery store. Congrats!

I took the first pfizer shot when it came out because I was told I would be fired if I didnt.
Same, it was both job and the fact that I was planning a trip to Canada at the time. Got Pfizer 1 and 2 and nothing else. Sucks knowing that my 10-year survivability is more or less completely down to luck, but I am assuming I did my health a huge favor by not getting any boosters.
