Man they really shoehorned the 302 into that ranger, didn't they? And yeah it's pretty much a must buy.

It's a ranger because it's tiny. Those old rangers, like other 80's small pickups, were really small. Unlike modern "compact trucks."

The ranger has actually barely changed in it's 28 years. it's gotten a couple inches larger in each dimension, but the difference in wheelbase between a 1983 and a 2011 is only about 3 inches, and the difference in width is only about 3 inches.

and yet, this happened:

That red '90 Testarossa has an inline flat 12 that makes a staggering... 380HP. I'm kind of shocked to see that. How much did they cost, new? Was that "supercar" level horsepower in 1990?

That 380hp was out of 5 liters. the BMW 5 liter v12 of the era made 295hp. the 5 liter v8 in the mustang was 225hp, and chevy was making a 5 liter v8 with 170hp. Remember, 500hp factory cars absolutely did not exist in 1990. The F40 was 471hp, and was the fastest production car at the time.
