1987 Ford Ranger XLT review from North America
"A nice tough little truck"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The timing belt has gone out at around 179,000 miles.
The parking brake would stick on slightly so I had to get new brakes about a month ago.
General comments?
I got the truck from my dad when I turned 16 and it has been running good while I've had it.
The interior is in great condition for how old it is and I have plenty of head room.
The exterior has some small dents and some rust, but it still looks good.
The engine is still the original and is running smoothly.
It is a tough truck and has lots of power for a 4 cylinder engine.
Overall I am very happy with this truck and it is fun to drive.
