.................and NO, I didn't trade in the CRD.  No reason to. Basically, it will be my son's ride in a year or so. I know, poor gas mileage but I have owned a 2002, and a 1997 so knew what we were in for. Just needed some sort of truck and like the Ford.

I am the lucky one. After our first 2 sons died soon after birth, number 3 has been wonderful. He is a 4.0 GPA student and just the nicest kid you could imagine. He just got his first job working in a restaurant for summer money. He starts high school next year and I wanted him in a safe rig. No go fast car like he wanted but the Ranger was his second choice. |

The trick is to get them a go fast car that always needs work, that way he can only go fast some of the time, the rest of the time he spends working on it. Grr. |

 Our small city used to have a police officer who's job it was to know every high school student and steer then from wrong He said that when there's more then two teens in a car is when trouble happens  So unless they're real cozy then two is it for your son

It does have the jump seats in the super cab, but I don't see many football players piling back there. I am hoping just my son and his honey in the truck. |

I had an extra cab ford ranger in high school and through college.. you'd be suprised how many people you can cram in there.. I sold it for my CRD. hated to see it go, but i needed something that would pull and for people hauling. I got out of driving on a lot of trips with friends because they all hated the extra cab jump seats...that should save your son some money to make up for the lower mileage.
