traded in The Pro5...sad day, but good day!

[BKJT05]

Got 9k for it with all the mods, didnt feel like taking them all off so just said what the hell. 9k was good enough for me. Got a Ford Ranger Fx4....its badass!!!

[NCZ13]

[MazdaSpeeder]

sad to hear it...I'm not a big fan of white, but yours was one sexy P5!

[Circuit]

Boo and congrats! Did you at least take out the audio stuff??

[Donas64]

Glad you're happy with your trade but there is not a ford ranger that has ever been produced that exudes more bad@$$ness than the P5! :)

[BKJT05]

Actually, its all GONE....didnt have the stock stuff, didnt want to buy it all to replace it, and it just give me a n excuse to buy a new audio system!!!

i will always be around. this forum is great, it doesnt matter what car you have, people are always willing to help. opinions are great, people are funny, mods are ok, and learning is the best. ive learned so much from this forum its crazy, from audio, to engines, to visuals, to interior.

[Mr. 4500 RPM]

Yeah I will be doing a similar trade but instead of it being a pick up/ranger its for a grand cherokee heh nice trade in price! I hope mine is just as good.

[nate0123]

sounds like you got a good value on trade, but um... you know they make a manual ranger, right? (poke)

Yup I agree with you, I've been to so many different forums and this is the best one I ever joined. That's why I'm never selling my P5, love it here.

Nice truck by the way! And Congrats!

yea, but i wanted a auto because i drive alot in the city and stoping and going all the time with a stick gets old, really old after a 12 hour day at work in rush hour traffic on the way home!!

[BKJT05]

thanks everybody, i was suprised they gave me 9k for the pro5, it dont even have a spare tire anymore because i removed it for the amp setup. oh well its gone now and im happy. I will miss it, but i got all kinds of pics of it to remember, and i think once i get this paid off or move up a little in my career, a MS6 is in the future!!!

i hope it snows now! it probably wont because i got 4x4, but haha. the snow is 1 huge reason why i decided to trade my car in.

yea, traffic sucks no matter what kind of transmission you have... but, I know what you mean

good thing my commute consists of walking down the street... I don't think I'd be able to put up with bumper-to-bumper every day!

I live in Ne so the city isnt like NY or anything like that, but after working a long day, i hate shifting...stop and go, etc.

i will miss 25+ mpg, but i got 4x4 now so it makes up for it!!!

[TreFlip999]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO....congrats though, 9k...your going to miss your P5 so bad

[2xsess]

How many miles did your P5 have on it?

[BKJT05]

How many miles did your P5 have on it?

P5 had 52K, truck has 52K....i told the dealer i wouldent buy anything with more miles then the Pro5

[2xsess]

Good luck with the truck . My friend has a 99 Ranger 4x4, it's pretty cool, he likes to do brake stands and make lots of smoke.

[mazdaspeed777]

A suggestion to you... You might want to go back to the dealership and get the mods back you put on there. All dealerships always return the car to stock before selling it again. So they are going to take off your mods anyways and alot of the time they will just give them back to you. So you should try that so you can make a little extra money.

Also can you explain to us why a Ford ranger? Not to nock ya down or anything its just that it is on a whole nother side of the spectrum from a P5??

It's to bad, I was really starting to like your P5. Any mod plans for the truck??

[ZOOMit]

So do you have a thing for white vechicles???? (jerkit) LOL j/k

Glad to see ya finally got something, You'll have to post up some pics after you go muddin lol ....Good luck to ya bro

[GoProtege]

ah boooooo... jk good luck

Haha, ive loved ford rangers for so long, i just didnt buy one cause i didnt want to spend alot on gas, but now after owning the pro5 for 2 years i just decided i wanted to sit high, have 4x4 for these weird Ne winters, and get something new for myself. I might try and call the dealership and see about the mods, but i doubt they will give them back, that is one thing they said brought the value of my car up?

mods for the truck.....i want to do a simple lift, bigger tires, full system again, tint widows, dual exhaust, and idk what else.

haha i will get pics of it all covered in mud. also i do like white. i wanted a black one cause i wanted to black it out, but i like white cause it doesnt show scratches as bad and looks clean longer. plus when i saw this ranger, it caught my eye and its a fx4 which made me want it more.


ah boooooo... jk good luck


haha, thanks. ill be around for a long time on this forum

[whitemp5seattle]

awww sad to see a white p5 leave...you should have left a special note under the drivers seat or something for the next owner to look on www.mazdas247.com :)

good luck with the new truck!

[mazdaspeed777]

[QUOTE]mods for the truck.....i want to do a simple lift, bigger tires, full system again, tint widows, dual exhaust, and idk what else.[QUOTE]

I have a friend with a red ford ranger that custome made a mandrel bent 2.5" exhaust all the way back. It sounds great and she is pretty fast now. I would recommend you do something of that sort

I think im going to get a flowmaster full exhaust. flowmaster 40 series sounds pretty good. my goal is to get the best gas milage out of it. i know its a truck so i should know about crappy milage, but some guys on the ranger forums claim to be getting 18-20 city so thats my goal!

[BKJT05]

i emailed my dealer who i traded the Pro5 into and asked about maybe getting my Greddy back since i still have the stock laying around. Told him id love to get my system back, but i dont have the stock to switch so. I figure if i get the greddy back i can sell it for $300 or so and that will buy a dual exhaust for my truck or tint the windows or by some speakers and head-unit to start my audio!

[BKJT05]

hey everybody got a question for you? i want the black headlights for my ranger, they sell them on ebay. i was thinking why not just do like i did with my pro5's headlights and black em out myself? is it the same method??
