1993 Ford Ranger XLT review from North America
"This is an off-road dream"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The radiator went at 170,000 which is not bad at all. replaced clutch at 172,000. paint is excellent, very rugged tough truck. 4x4 works like a dream and no problems with transmission. idle air control valve went at 175,000 but that's nothing major. seats have minor wear for a 11 year old truck.
General comments?
This truck is built ford tough just like the add says. I have flow master exhaust and 3 inch PA body lift with 30.5inch bf Goodrich mud tires. the 3.0 turns them like nothing. the 3.73 axle ratio with limited slip is a dream come true. barely need 4x4. this truck has excellent turning radius and is awesome on the trails.
