Overview & Reviews
For the 1996 Ford Ranger, an optional passenger-side airbag is now available, and it comes with a switch that will disable the system if a child seat is installed in the truck. Super Cab models get standard privacy glass, Splash models lose that putrid green tape stripe, and the Flareside box from the Splash is now available on two-wheel-drive, four-cylinder XL and XLT models.

great truck - 1996 Ford Ranger
By Anvil - October 18 - 2:00 amI buoght this truck with 12,000 miles on it. It now has over 260,000 miles and is still running strong. The only problems Ive encountered is a transmission problem caused by an oil change place leaving the fill plug loose. Very expensive repair, but trouble free since then. This truck is so reliable I find myself taking it for granted.

1996 ford ranger xlt - 1996 Ford Ranger
By john mcvey - August 23 - 2:00 amPurchased vehicle from original owner with approximately 33000 miles on it. Majority of my driving was local with some trips of 100 miles each way. Ride and handling are very comfortable. Dependability is very good. Unfortunately with the small v-6 the gas mileage is horrible. The best it can get on the highway at cruise is 16 MPG, around town it drops to about 13- 14 MPG

Takes a lickin and keeps on tickin - 1996 Ford Ranger
By Harry Tasker - July 24 - 2:00 amI have had my 96 ford ranger 4x4 for over 2 years now. I bought it with 42,000 miles and have put 23,000 miles on it. I havent had any engine troubles what so ever. The quality of the interior leaves a little to be desired. I have found a few tears in the upholstery. I would suggest getting the 4.0-liter V6. The power is with any extra cost. As far as use and abuse I have hauled hundreds of lbs in the bed (about 16 sheets of drywall) and didnt have any trouble. I have also had the truck off the ground while driving off road. The gas mileage .. stinks. I get 300 miles off of an 18 gallon tank.

Great truck, bad gas mileage - 1996 Ford Ranger
By Johnny - March 15 - 1:03 amI love this truck. Its my first vehicle, and I find that it has fantastic performance (mild during regular use and aggressive in those "stoplight excursions" with other cars), decent stereo, good ride, looks awesome, s like it, and its never broken down. only thing that i dont like is the cupholders. big aftermarket for lowrider or off-road markets. i love this truck, it does everything i want it to and more.
