1997 Ford Ranger XL review

Simple, reliable, old, truck.

Simple, reliable, old, truck...nothing fancy, gets you from point A to point B. Very inexpensive to operative and maintain. Ford, as company,has lost its way, forgotten regular folks and working class folks, but they are not alone. It's a xxxx shame...

1997 Ford Ranger XLT review

I bought my 1997 Ranger 4x4 3.

I bought my 1997 Ranger 4x4 3.0 automatic new. I has been my daily driver for most if that time. It hit 299'000 ten years ago and I drive it an hour one way just for work. That eiesnt I include my riad looos on tge weekends and running errands and such. The odometer has been stuck at 299,000 and I'm figuring well over 400k by now. Sadly I need to find a transmission. I lost 3 and 4th along with reverse. I'm fixing it. I'll never find something that will hold up lije this has. People tell me "You drive thay Ford piece of S***." I come right back and tell them and their Tacoma that when their truck hits 400k at 28 yearsvold and has been through the creeks and up the hills and has even been hit head on by a texting teen back in 03 and it stillbgoes down the interstate wuth the best of them then they can talk crap about my truck. Until then shove off.

Guys have lots of sweet trucks and cars to look at inside. They have 3 locations so be mindful of that.

1997 Ford Ranger Splash SuperCab review

Long Lasting Reliable Truck.

I bought a new 1997 Ford Ranger 4x4 4.0 v6 4 speed (w/ od). After 27yrs driving it...163000 mi...it's never left me stranded. A dead battery...twice. 235/75R15 M/T have been on it since the originals wore out. One clutch, one radiator, one blendoor and 2 break jobs. Flush out radiator every even year. Will finally change oil in manual transmission and transfer case. As well as in Rear and Front differentials. I'll do this on 25th of April '24. Needs radio and door lights stay on for a long long time. OH...and a very slow leak in the AC...I put in 2 small cans per yr. Small cans from auto stores...whatever is on sale. YUP...regular maintenance is the key, And I have been the only driver. My Wife likes sedans. Driven it overloaded pulling a small overloaded trailer from FL to CA twice and will do it a 3rd time in 2 months. I got lucky. R A Murillo

1997 Ford Ranger XLT SuperCab review

I got a steal! Previous owner never

Just purshased from a neighbor. Only 51000 miles. Needs headliner and a paint job but other than that what a deal!! I had to buy it! Never pass up a good deal. I’m gonna paint it, fix the headliner and put a bed liner on it. I could probably sell it but I’m won’t. You can alway use a truck.

Just picked up a 1997 f350. Tailgate was by far my best experience buying a truck and I have bought a lot in the past years!

1997 Ford Ranger Splash review

Good small truck

My mom had a 97 Ford ranger last for 425000 miles. Hardly any maintenance to it. Finally lost all compression but would still start. It would not give up. I own one now
