I purchased a new XL, I-4, ext cab, 6ft bed in 2006 for $13k. In 12 years I put 60k miles on it. There was no issues requiring parts or maintenance in that time. I sold it in 2018 for $7k, an extremely good value.

Best vehicle I've had hands down. Albeit first truck too so take it with a grain of salt I suppose. But I absolutely love this truck I was trying to find my exact model here but didn't see it yet but mine is the XL trim with single cab 7 foot bed and I actually use it for food delivery and it's been unbelievably reliable even putting over 100 miles a day on her. Not only that but resale value has gone UP. (Trade in slightly down, private sale up)

It does not have any technology nor bells n whistles etc. not the most comfortable or luxurious either. My 06 sport 3.0 Ranger is the most reliable, dependable and simple vehicle I have ever owned. It was made solid and designed to last. I got it used 2 years with about 18k miles for about 11700 from a dealer. It is now over 100k and over 15 years old and still runs great and reliable. I still drive it often and it does what I need. It’s more reliable than my 2017 RAM 1500.
