    Just declared the Tacoma a winner for the Canyon vs Tacoma after researching the transmission problems with both. Now I want y'alls take on the Ford Ranger Lariat FX4 since most of you might have bought a Tacoma before it was even an option.

    Refer back to winner of your Canyon research and apply that to the Ranger.

    Why? You can do research on this same forum. Theirs plenty of opinions on every truck on the market floating all over this place. No need to clog up another thread.

    The Ranger is like seeing a woman across the room. From a far side view, not too bad, so you approach a little closer. Then it hits you, that front view from a short distance.:eek:
    That is when you pretend you were trying to find the restroom and politely excuse yourself, to check out the others.
