Overview & Reviews
Ford introduces its brand-new five-speed automatic transmission to the 1997 Ford Ranger lineup. Available with the V6 engines, the five-speed automatic is designed to improve the Ranger's acceleration, towing and hill-climbing ability.
- Great looking compact truck with a cornucopia of engine choices and options.
- We wish the base engine were stronger, and that a third door was offered.

WORST TRUCK EVER - 1997 Ford Ranger
By Mrp - March 13 - 2:00 amThis is the worst truck Ive ever owned. Bought a used 1996 XL in 1998. I have had many problems ever since. Many electrical problems. I have been stranded roadside twice. Do not buy one

My review - 1997 Ford Ranger
By ljscmm - June 9 - 2:00 amThis vehicle is one of the worst Ive ever had. I had to get a complete tune up at 45,000 miles. I will never own another Ford. I also had to replace the mechanism that keeps the seat from falling back.
