2001 Ford Ranger Edge review from North America
"Built Ford Tuff!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Door Ajar light comes on and stays on. It self corrects itself after a few minutes. The horn pretty much completely died. Had to have power steering pump replaced at 45,000ish miles. A week after I bought the truck the belt started squeaking really bad and I've had to changed the belt a few times. The belts don't seem to last long.
General comments?
It's a great truck. I've taken this truck into some nasty spots and I've laughed at every hill and swamp I've came across. The off road capabilities from this truck were very surprising. The 4x4 is so solid and properly equiped this truck can tear threw almost anything.
I've chiped the engine and put a k&n cold air intake in with a custom true dual exhaust system and this truck sounds awsome and is extremely fast. It tops out at 92 MPH because of the govenor (I think it's called). Decided to leave the govenor in because with out it I'd probably do something stupid =).
I just wish there were more aftermarket items for these trucks.
