1994 Ford Ranger XLT review from North America
"An underpowered, but reliable truck"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only time it's failed to start on me is when the battery terminals broke.
Just normal repairs.
General comments?
This truck has a sorry lack of power, so don't try to haul anything with it.
You can't even get rubber with first gear, which is pathetic. I could get rubber in first, second, and third with my S-10, and the engine isn't even that much bigger.
The interior lasts a long time.
