1986 Ford Ranger review from North America
"Very reliable little truck"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The tie rod went at 275,000 Kms. Nothing since then.
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.
