1994 Ford Ranger xlt review from North America
"The truck was comfortable and drove nicely, but didn't have good power or fuel economy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The Truck used oil and light rear end slid out from me on a slick road resulting in total wreck.
General comments?
The gas mileage wasn't as good as I hoped. Really poor power in the 2.3L. Even on dirt roads and in the snow and mud I never got stuck, I'm used to those conditions and I put off road tires with siping to improve traction in the 2wd. It did OK with sand bags in the back during winter. I loved the interior of the extra-cab it was always very comfortable. This truck handled like a car and drove great. My main complaint was that it didn't have good power or good fuel economy.
