1992 Ford Ranger 4x4 reg cab review from North America
"Great buy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Freeze plug fell out at 295000 $1.
Rebuilt starter at 320000 $90.
New u-joint on drive shaft at 320000 $15.
New starter at 335000 $180.
Heater works poorly.
Push button 4x4 can take couple pushes.
Locking hubs can freeze in on or off position.
U-joints on front wheels need replacing.
General comments?
Not much power, good mileage for a truck, 10L/100km.
For the mileage, age and purchase price this car has been great. I've owned some beaters and they all been great. these older vehicles usually have less items to brake down, less cost to fix, and likely broke down on a previous owner.
If your at as mechanical is me, my listed problems could me more annoying to you. the truck has never left me stranded. etests are prefect. the rust is the death of this vehicle.
