1993 Ford Ranger XL review from North America
"Good for short trips"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The clutch slips.
There are many rattles.
General comments?
The seats are horribly uncomfortable, especially for trips over 30 minutes.
No power steering makes for poor handling especially in parking lots etc.
There is very little power in the 2.3 liter engine, especially for a truck.
About 20 mpg with me getting the best acceleration possible.
No four wheel drive makes for bad handling on the ice.
There is very little space in the cab and behind the seat.
