1994 Ford Ranger XLT review from North America
"Nice economy hauler"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission modulator had to be replaced at 85,000 miles (truck is an automatic).
Tires replaced at 75,000 miles.
General comments?
Reliable truck, but with little real power. Combination of automatic and 4-cylinder engine isn't the best for acceleration.
Air conditioner works great, as does heater.
Truck is comfortable for me (at 6'4") but regular cab is a pretty tight squeeze for leg room.
Overall a very inexpensive to operate truck that's easy on the eyes.
