Faults:

The ABS light has come on, and the speedometer does not operate until you reach at least 40 MPH, and this is affecting a number of other systems. The odometer won't work until the speedometer works. The car doesn't compensate for deceleration between shifts, unless you reach at least 40 miles per hour, making shifting between gears 1-4 tougher to manage, due to rapid changes in engine speed.

The timing belt needed to be replaced at the time the car was purchased. And replacement aftermarket brakes (Duralast) have negatively affected brake performance on the vehicle.

General Comments:

The truck for the most part is reliable. The problems mentioned before could have been avoided or resolved if taken to a dealer, but the dealer wanted 3 times the cost that my mechanic quoted. Now I know why...

The truck doesn't handle bumps and cracks very well. The suspension is very sensitive, you feel everything. The car doesn't have AC, but the heat works well. Overall driving experience is reasonable, and I'm happy considering the low price for the vehicle.

Faults:

A lot of things have went wrong with this truck since a few months after purchase.

This year alone we have had to replace 2 transmissions, brakes, tie rod, rotors, dist. cap, plugs, wires, 2 tires, and much more.

The truck is very noisy wind road noise and rides surpisingly rough.

Just the general things on the truck seem to be okay, except the center console.. it is starting to wear pretty badly.

General Comments:

Faults:

I have had no problems with this truck. just general maintenance. not bad for a baby ranger.

General Comments:

The only thing that I see wrong with it is that the engine is just a little underpowered. But then again it is a 4 cylinder. cannot pull a small load very well. Manual transmission helps a lot.

I have the Troy Lee interior package. That really makes a plain truck look not so plain.

Faults:

Nothing.

General Comments:

Well, first off, I'm 17, and this is my Dads truck, but I drive it to work everyday. It has a 4 cylinder engine, and it could be a little more powerful, but no big deal. It has a 5 speed manual, and it is slightly choppy, but that is my fault because this is the vehicle that I learned to drive stick in.

It is very reliable, and if you want something that is cheap and reliable, id definitely recommend it.
