1987 Ford Ranger XL review from North America
"I have nothing but praise for the truck, I have never had a vehicle last or go this many miles"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had the transmission rebuilt twice.
Normal maintenance and repair for a high mileage vehicle.
About everything has been changed or repaired except the engine which is original.
General comments?
The truck has been extremely reliable espectially considering most of the miles are city miles on the hills of San Francisco.
