What's the real difference between a 4.0 ranger and a Mazda B4000?
I've tried looking around the site and I can't find anything. I have a chance of getting my papaws B4000 and I would love to know what the difference between a Ranger 4.0 and a B4000.

if they're the same year and both 2wd or 4x4 I believe the drivetrain is the same.
Main difference is the exterior and airbag

Some people say pawpaw for grandpa and dad both. Why cant we just stick with dad and grandpa? Makes shit a lot simpler and threads wont get derailed like this.

Mazda logo vs ford logo. Mechanically they are 100% the same. The same goes for the rest of the truck, the body is just slightly different

why can't people just not ask stupid ass questions? Common sense says pawpaw is grandpa. Paw is usually Dad.
