Red face

it says the last major update was in 2001, that is not correct, the last major update was in 93. they only gave it a new front clip, new interior, and changed the style of the rear lights and wheels in 2001. I know this cause my buddy had a 2002 ranger that got sideswiped and he got a door off of a 97/98 Ranger as well as the bed, he simply swapped out the tail gate and rear tail lights from his 2002 onto the older bed and then had it mounted to the frame and color matched to the rest of the truck. I wonder what ford's next small truck will look like.

edit, I looked up Ranger on wikipedia, sure the later models had some changes to the way they made the frames, and updated the front suspension but sheet metal wise they have been the same from the A pillar to the back of the bed. it is the same with the Ford Crown Vic it has basically been the same car since 1992 but the body on frame of it has been mostly the same as it has been since the mid 80s.
