1995 Ford Ranger XLT review from North America
"If you can't afford a full size truck this one does pretty well till you can"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The windshield wipers sometimes have a mind of their own coming on without being turned on and the intermittent wipers do not always work. Occasionally the windshield wipers come on fast with cleaner spraying, but do turn off as soon as you cycle the control.
Door open chime (which is very load and annoying) and dome light stay lit some times after closing the door.
Had a problem with the cam sensor, it was making a terrible squeaking racket and caused a check engine light.
General comments?
Other than the above statements the truck has been great and done everything I wanted it to.
It has served well on around the town trips and longer road trips.
Pulled light loads without any problems.
The bed will hold a yard of dirt or mulch.
