2001 Ford Ranger XLT review from North America
"Great truck, a little under powered though"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
One problem is that the light for the airbag comes on now and then. When I brought it to the dealership, they said there was no problem and I was charged $50.00 just to hook the truck to the computer.
The driver side door has a constant squeak in it though. Just enough to drive me crazy.
General comments?
I love this Ford Ranger, I just think it is completely under powered. I mainly stick to city driving which is not too bad, but when I do have to go on the interstate, it is a nightmare. The pick up is so incredibly slow that I have to punch the gas to make 70 miles per hour, which really killed gas.
