My Truck is the BEST

Date of Review:  Feb 8, 2000
Review: I bought my truck used in 1996. It was a program vehicle. I have used it everyday since then and have found it to be the very best vehicle I have ever owned. This is top priority for a woman in her 50's. We have to have a dependabel vehicle. My 1996...

Much better than the 95s and earlier

Date of Review:  Apr 24, 2001
The Bottom Line: A very practical work horse. Great when hauling loads, yet economical as a daily driver.
Review: Compared to the 95s and earlier, the 96 model was greatly improved. It has Ford's newer engine computer, the EEC-V and it is OBD-II compliant. It continuously monitors and adjusts the engine for optimum performance. No more frequent tune ups. This...

Nice Little Truck

Date of Review:  May 24, 2000
Review: I bought this 96 Ranger extended cab a few months ago, and so far I'm glad I did. Originally I was looking for a compact car because I commute about 20 miles every day, and gas prices were on the way up. But I drove literally every compact (and most...

Ranger is the gold standard

Date of Review:  Jan 21, 2000
Review: This is my fifth Ranger. Although it is a 1996, it still looks as new as a 2000 model. Absolutely dependable, quite comfortable and roomy even for someone as large as myself at 240 lbs and 6'6". My previous Ranger, a 1995 was probably the best...

1996 Ford Ranger

Date of Review:  Nov 26, 2000
Review: I needed a vehicle in a hurry. The Ford Ranger looked good, and my main need was a small truck. It pulled a trailer full of household goods without any problem. The main drawback is how it handles on winter roads. It doesn't have the weight to grip...

Ford in Flight!!

Date of Review:  Mar 1, 2000
Review: In 1996 my husband and I were once again looking for "his dream truck." We were not too lucky it seemed when it came to buying vehicles. He saw this truck and all was said, he had to have it.

I was concerned about him buying a small truck...

I love this truck.

Date of Review:  Sep 22, 2000
Review: Interestingly enough, I had the exact same check engine light problem as the other reviewer of this truck, although I have the 4-cyl version. Other than that, this is one great truck, I've had no other problems with it. I'd recommend this vehicle to...
