At 28500 the window on the drivers side wouldn't go back up unless I hit the side of the door. Finally had the problem fixed. Works great now. The other problem my truck has is not starting when it is hot. It will turn over and die out right away. The dealer mechanics can find nothing wrong with the truck. Other mechanics can find no reason why my truck does this. I would not buy another ford truck. I didn't buy the truck new so I expected to come across some problems. But to encounter a problem that not one single mechanic knows what is wrong with is bad news. It seems like it might be the fuel pump, but again no one really knows. For this very reason the Ford Ranger XLT is a disgrace to the Ford family of vehicles.
The inside of the vehicle is very comfortable.
I like the extra cab for putting groceries there, etc.
Handles the KY roads very well. (lots of curves)
About the Ford Ranger starting problems when hot... Have you replaced the starter with a non Ford variety? The Ford starters are more heavy duty and well shielded against engine heat. I had a Ford truck with a similar problem and found out that while the non Ford starter worked great when it was cold, the minute the engine got warm it would do the similar things, and in fact often would not start at all. To make things fit in the engine compartment, Ford sometimes has to put the starter too close to the engine. Hope this helps!
