1986 Ford Ranger XLT review from North America
"Good daily driver, of course you always need more HP!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Master Cylinder, starter and turn signal switch. We knew all this when we got the truck.
General comments?
I Like my truck. It's true that it doesn't get the best gas mileage, but it has good enough performance to knock these import junkers around.
I have had some problems, but the thing is almost 20 years old, what can you expect.
I have heard complaints about the seats. I am a 280 pound 6 ft. adult and I am prettty comfortable in this pickup, the seat could go back a couple more inches though.
I am planning on making this into a SERIOUS Pre-Runner when we go back home.
