Actually I really like the Ranger. Does what I need just fine. He is right though it is not a family vehicle.

I've got a 2000 Ranger, 1988 GT and newly aquired '65 fastback....My kid is 10, carseat in the '88 was no fun at all when he had to ride in it. So much more fun now that he is older....looking at getting him a '63 bug... he's a lefty..what does he know....

Derek, would bolting a child seat to a roll cage not have worked?

Atleast Mrs Derek has a nice new winter ride.
For yourself, how about a bike with a sidecar for hauling kids and/or doggies?

Good luck with grabbin up another ummmm, errrrrrrr sensible ride.

Yeah I know...actually I'm pretty fortunate in my life . I took the Freestyle out for the first time today, wife picked it out so she drove it home yesterday. Three rows of seating, DVD, tons of gagets...heated seats and a ride the 04Gt couldn't provide on a road smooth as glass...meh guess I'm happy with it..she love it. Makes me crave spring and opening that garage up all the more

I love heated seats...my 97 jeep had them...kinda feels like your peeing your pants but you know its ok. The guy across the road from me said his Expedition has air conditioned seats....that must be badass

Im kinda glad I got the truck. Now I actually have some time to spend on the 5.0 that was really neglected (sap all over the hood, etc.) Although yours looks like its about flawless...maybe time for a TT setup
