Pros: Power Steering, Antilock brakes. Gas milage
Cons: Cramped, Has problems holding speed on hills.
The Bottom Line: If you want a truck to run a round in this one would do. Serious driving and traveling No Way

This is my husbands truck which I don't like to drive but have to sometimes. What is there about the truck that...

Pros: Best pickup for the money. Reliable, powerful engine and its just perfect!
Cons: It likes to drink gas and it doesn't come with a CD player.
The Bottom Line: Best small pickup available. Fun to drive, reliable and all around a great truck.
I just bought a 98' Ford Ranger XLT 4.0 V6 4X4 with a manual transmission. Not an easy find, at least in Virginia. There are plenty of 2WD Rangers out there, but I never really understood the point. If you are going to own a truck, it ...

Pros: Economical, easy to maintain
Cons: Driving in wet weather, electronics display
I've owned Ford trucks for over twenty years. I consider Ford trucks to be reliable and durable over the long haul. I bought the Ford Ranger King Cab XLT for two reasons. The Ranger provides comfort in driving like a car, yet allows options of a truck....

Pros: Ride, handling, interior layout
Cons: Engine, drive system
I bought this vehicle for its flexibility and sportiness. I liked the looks, interior, 4WD, and ratings on the Ford. The truck handles great and is comfortable to drive. I hate the weak engine, the 3.0L V6. From what I understand, the 4.0L V6 is better,...

I Bought a 98 model Ford Ranger step side almost a year ago. This truck had just over 18,000 miles on it when I bought it and it now has over 36,000 miles. The Ford Ranger power and horsepower is pretty good for the money, with it's dual over head cam...

I originally was looking at this vehicle because of price. I found the Ford Ranger to be an extreme value. I purchased the XLT Supercab with the 4DR option. I didn't know they had four doors at the time of purchase (8/98). I was sold when I saw the...

The Bottom Line: Built Ford Tough!
I bought my Ranger used with 64k miles, I wasn't intending to buy such a new truck, as I was needing it for work. I found it for a good price, and I do like the body style alot better than the '93-'97 Rangers.
The truck has the poor little 3.0...

I just turned over 30,000 miles on my 1998 Ford Ranger, four-door XLT, 4x4. This is my third over the past fourteen years. This is the first that ever had a glitch.
The ‘door ajar’ light stays light and occasionally the dome light stays on by...
