1999 Ford Ranger review from North America
"Good job ford"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I bought it with bad ball joints and a squeking idler pulley. I'm replacing the ball joints right now and putting on a fabtech 2.5" performance lift on it.
General comments?
I love this truck, Its got a lot of miles on it, but it still feels like a new car. Not very fast even though the previous owner put a bunch of work into the engine. Gets awsome gas mileage for a truck, doubles what I got I'm my trans am. Takes dirt roads/ fire trails like a champ, it's a 2wd, but sure as hell doesn't act like it.
