I had an '02 Ranger 3.0 V6 2wd model as my first car. It was in perfect condition with 140k miles when I got it. I sold it a year ago with 250k miles and it still ran and shifted smoothly. Never burned oil in between 5k oil changes, and never needed any maintenance besides oil changes, spark plugs and wires once, front brakes, and a set of tires. Good on gas too.

My Mom and Dad have a 05 Ranger Edge 4x4 4 door with the 4.0 sohc engine. Its the charcoal grey color. It rides very nice and is very quiet for a smaller truck. Also it is fast to. It's been a great truck, never been stuck in snow. My Dad has pulled to many cars and trucks out of the snow last and this year. The 4.0 is a brute..

Pre '01 was the OHV 4.0 v6 which put out 160hp which was similar in design to the 3.0 Vulcan. It proved to be a more reliable engine than the 4.0 SOHC because pre '02 Explorers and some Rangers experienced timing chain failure due to plastic guides. I believed this flaw was fixed in '03-'05.

I have a 97 regular cab Ranger. 4 cyl, 5 speed with over 220k miles (it stopped there almost a year ago). This truck is absolutely mind-boggling. Lol, I think it may run forever. The only work that has been done to it is a timing belt at around 150k, and brakes, tires, and regular oil changes. Still has ice cold air, and gets great mileage. Just goes to show there can be quality US vehicles!
