I am not familiar with the option packages/standard equipment on the 2003s. I have an '01 with the 4 litre OHC engine and towing package. If yours is equipped the same way, you should have no problem doing what you describe. By all means, keep the wife happy and put that Ranger to work. It will handle it!

Do I understand you: Truck towing a tent trailer towing a boat? If this is correct I hope you are joking and not serious.

I thought he meant a camper attached to the bed of the truck and then pulling a boat behind the truck. If he is talking about pulling two separate things, I certainly retract my advice to do it!

Being from NJ...I wouldn't be able to get out of my neighborhood with two trailers in tow! Just to make myself clear...I'm talking about a slide in, popup truck camper, the kind that sits between the wheel well of the truck...the ones I've seen are about 1200#'s...then, attach my boat to the trailer hitch and off I go...I'm still looking...from what I've gathered, there are not a lot of them used on the market...the price for a new one is about $7-8K...not too bad, but then I'll need a place to store it!
#7 of 11 Ranger trailer wiring by buster15
May 05, 2007 (5:48 pm)
Hey all:Went to use my utility trailer this a.m. No power on the yellow wire (left signal).
I disconnected the harness at the plug (two feet) from trailer plug and no power there either.
All lights (l/r signals, running and 4 ways) work on the truck.
No inline fuses?
Any suggestions?

I'm sure glad I live in the western half of the country as we can pull two trailers out here if we have the right license and the GVW of the towing rig is sufficent. Bullit7#10 of 11 1995 towing capastiy by scorpionf89

I just bought a 1995 ford ranger that has a 5 speed manual and a 3 leter v-6 in it, unforchantly it did not have the owners manula in it any more. I would aperacte it if some one could tell me how much this thing can pull down the road.#11 of 11 Trailer Towing a Ranger by nevanevaland

I am planning a cross-country move and will be towing my 1993 manual-transmission Ford Ranger behind the moving truck. Do i need to disconnect the driveshaft ?? If so, is this something the average person can do themselves?? I am fairly competent with basic auto repairs but don't want to venture into the unknown..Thanks in advance for your replies
