Francis Price - Ranger Rik The Tow Pig


I’m a sparky from Hertfordshire with a passion for all things Ford, if it wears a blue oval it’s my cup of tea. Had everything from Fiesta’s to full size Transits. Currently daily driving a Ranger & building a supercharged street/strip 90’s Mustang.

2014 Ford Ranger Limited 2.2

I bought Tow Pig as a work vehicle to replace my full Ford Transit. I got him when he had 37k miles and at the time of writing this he has 291k miles on the clock. Rik has been to every corner of the country hauling race cars and work materials and has never missed a beat I service the s**t out of him, oil and filters every 10k, other fluids 40k and preventative rather than reactive parts replacement. I intend to retire Rik at 300k miles and swap the trusty tutu diesel for a V8 petrol engine and maybe in the future stretch the chassis and fit a dually back axle.
