General Comments:

The truck is very reliable. It is the best truck I've ever owned, since my previous Ranger.

This is a fast, fuel efficient little truck.

The truck has a nice interior and and good engine.

I got over 550,000 Km's out of my previous ranger, so this one should last.

Control module at 60000 cost me $20.00

This is one fine running vehicle, the truck is great on gas 18/25 and rides really nice for a 4x4. Shes a gem for the money. I paid only 900.00 for the truck and knock on wood it beats driving a suv which are nothing, but gas hogs. I know because I had a CHEVY SUBURBAN A first class junk. This is rust free and super clean for its age.

Faults:

The Body was in need of some minor repair. I fixed all the dents and rusted panels and painted it.

The engine uses a quart of oil every 3 months.

The Carburetor needs to be replaced, it will stall if not warmed up enough, and seems to turn the engine over a bit once the ignition has been turned off.

The seats were torn when I bought it, so I put on a seat cover.

General Comments:

Overall this is a very reliable truck. It has never left me stranded somewhere and doesn't seem to want to die. For 300 000 km I was really impressed.

The only downfall to this truck is the performance. It is really embarrassing when old model minivans and school buses are passing you while you're wide open throttle. But I'm sure the V6 model is a different story.

The gas mileage is decent on the highway, but in town it seems to average that of a V8.

Dad owns a 1986 Ford Ranger. Now if there's anything out there that would fit the definition of Rust-Bucket-On-Wheels, then this is it. The rear wheel arches are gone, and there isn't a single good panel on the thing. The speedometer and odometer are both broken. There is even a hole in the floorboards under where you put your feet to drive the thing - so he just covers it up with about 3 floor mats. Since he has owned it, he has had to replace the right-side exhaust manifold and the muffler. Oh yeah, and he bought it for 400 bucks.

General Comments:

The interior is decent, and the bench seat has actually held together. It is comfortable, although it has no tilt steering column. It is a five-speed and somehow it will not die!!!
