Best Small Pickup

This is the first car I have owned. I absolutely love this truck and couldn't be happier with it. It is very reliable and is well worth the money. Although I use it for commuting and personal use, this small pickup would make an excellent work truck.

Super reliable, 7 years no problems

The 3.0 is definitely a tank. My truck has over 200,000 miles and has been my best financial decision ever. I never worry about its reliability and plan on having it for many years instead of buying something new.

Very reliable car and gets great gas mileage!

This car has met all my needs. Comfortable and I can haul stuff in it. Have never had any mechanical issues with this truck. It has got me to and from work and used to pick up furniture and other stuff. Highly recommended.

Great little work Truck

I bought this truck used from a farmer and after some clean up, new tires etc I'm very happy with it. I use it for work mostly.

It'll take care of you if you take care of it

Whether you need it for commuting or hauling, you can't go wrong with the Ford Ranger. No, it doesn't get the best gas mileage, but for a pickup truck, it isn't bad. It has hauled everything I've needed it to in the 2 years I've owned it and I've only ever had to make minor repairs on it.

Very Reliable Truck

This truck is my first vehicle. It has a great engine it, runs great. I have the extended cab version, so its nice I can fit 5 into it. The interior is nice, plenty of legroom in the front.

Surprisingly reliable

I bought my Ranger when it was 15 years old with just over 150k miles. The paint quality was less than ideal from the factory, and it was flaking in multiple places. The interior held up well and it still rode great despite it's age, and I owned it for over a year before I sold it to get a toy. Very little power from the 4 cylinder, but it never had any major issues.
