    Too pricey for what you were getting. Ford has put this off for the last 5 years honestly.

    They should've made the rangers a little bigger. They're too damn small. Especially for what they cost...

    I had a 91 reg cab longbox stick shift 2wd and I gave that thing hell. I would try to take it through anything and it made it through alot of tough stuff. Would spin the tires no problem and was pretty damn fast. I took it through some mudholes hitting em doing 30-40mph and I made some of em, others it died out in the middle cuz the plugs and cap got wet lol it was pry my favorite vehicle tho even tho it was a rust bucket.

    It was rumored that Ford was planning a midsize pickup to replace the Ranger. They called it the F100, but not sure if that idea has been scraped or not.

    It won't be long that Chevy will drop the Coloradblow now that Ford killed the Ranger in the US.

    Can't really be mad at Ford, the Ranger's sells has dropped like a bomb since the late 90's. They kept it on life support to be honest. I'm sure it will be back within 10 years though, probably a little bigger and hopefully more cost efficient then the current Ranger.

    I think they shouldve changed the look of the ranger a bit, and make it a little bigger and sales wouldve been better.
