2002 Ford Ranger XLT 4x4 Off Road 4-Door review from North America
"Good for now, but 4+ years will be the test!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing. It is a brand new vehicle.
General comments?
Purchased this vehicle solely because of the X-plan discount price afforded as part of a fleet program incentive.
If it had been a MSRP-type purchase, I would have gotten a Toyota Tacoma or Nissan Frontier (if the looks don't scare you off), or even the cheaper-but-just-as-practical Mazda B4000.
This is my 4th American built truck in my life, but they seem to do OK for the first three years, then fall apart like no one's business. Prove me wrong Ford.
