That looks nice, that would look good in black and apart from Jean's, shoes and dresses that's the only thing I like black.

Looks cooler than all the other remade 'muscle', mustang camaro challenger etc, but give me the original any day. 67 fastback mustang or a 5.0 any day over the new shit. Z28 or SS396 or even an IROC over the new camaro any day. I'm glad mercury and Plymouth aren't around to butcher the cougar and barracuda..
Oh yeah while I'm at it. Mustang Mach 2 concept. Like Ford vs Ferrari but instead of a race it was a porno

Don't put it past Chrysler or Ford to bastardize those bagdes
I can’t stand anything Chevy now. The so called Blazer and Trail blazer etc. all look the same. No imagination

That ain't just Chevy really. Imagine this, you go to an ice cream shop and they offer you their house made bourbon vanilla ice cream. You complain that one flavor isn't enough, you need diversity in your bowl. So you get one scoop of every flavor they have, mix it together and it becomes a disgusting gray goop. Such is the world we live in today, and such is the auto industry. Every car looks the same. Without a second or third look ya can't tell a Honda apart from a Toyota or Kia or Hyundai or Nissan. And they took a lot of cues from German manufacturers. The newer Ford Explorers are copying the Range Rover so hard. Aside from the grille and lights practically every economy car on American streets looks the same. Same ugly body shape, a few different lines to set them apart. New vettes look like Ferraris and McLarens more and more. Whereas when you see a car from the 80s or 90s you just get a glance at it and know what it is off hand. I could keep going but I'll end my rant here, this pisses me off to no end as a car guy. I'm sure niggers are to blame somehow

I have my 02 Ranger edge extended cab and I love it. Only things I'd change are I'd make it 4wd stick shift and give it the side steps in front of the rear wheel. Other than that 190k miles and still going strong, iconic piece of machinery right there. Sure I kinda prefer the S10 in some ways but the rangers what I'm saddled with and I'll keep this thing until I blow a rod through the block

Those rangers were a collaboration with Mazda right? I still see those on the road

A 2012 Vette is a damn fine car

I don't think they were per se, but the Mazda B2000 truck was based off the ranger as far as I know. Or maybe you're right and it was the other way around. Damn fine truck either way

'12 and '13 were the last vettes to look like a proper vette

I think they had Mazda engines

Maybe the 4 cylinders were. Mine has the Vulcan V6, Ford designed. It has its problems but as long as you know what you're doing it'll be pretty solid for a long while

On a couple of points, Ford owned quite share of Mazda and collaborated on several vehicle. We restored an Australian version of a Falcon and fitted it with a Coyote engine and Tremac gearbox and my husband owned a Mustang 390 GT when we met.
