On Sunday, after Church talking to a Friend of mine , driving a Ford Ranger , he mentioned the Older Ranger We have had so much trouble with recently. https://steemit.com/cars/@awgbibb/blue-monday
I know the newer Ford Rangers and the Everest have been hugely successful here!
Told me he had owned a Toyota Fortuner,
and really loved it!
He had been hijacked at Gunpoint !
Went for Trauma counciling and the Psychiatrist said he needed to get back to his life and buy another Car.
So he bought another Fortuner!
Was not long and had that stolen as well.
Made some inquiries and found that the Fortuner and the Popular Taxi's used here in South Africa ,
are virtually the same Chassis and running gear!
A company that do not have one of these Taxi's is Ford , with the Ranger LDV and the Everest SUV.
So along came his Double Cab Ford Ranger , and no one wants to shoot him for it!
Isn't it amazing when true happiness, is no one pointing a Gun at you?

The aftermath of this tale is that when he went to collect his Ranger there were more Fortuner's there than Ford's?
Obviously he is not the only one who has suffered this mishap, they were all Trade in's!
Sad to say that this level of crime exists in our Beautiful Country.
