  • Proven Built Ford Tough - 1993 Ford Ranger
    By -

    My Ford Ranger only had 63,000 miles on it when I had it. It is a manual 5 Speed 4x4 STX. This Ranger has to be the toughest V6 ever on the road. I work on a farm and it easily towed a 30 ft bean header which it was not meant to pull by any means and the tranny and engine is still stout as can be and I just had the clutch replace last month. The paint and interior also looks like new. I believe it was Built Ford Tough.

  • Still going... - 1993 Ford Ranger
    By -

    I got this truck with 68K on it. It had been my Dads and I sold my 93 regular cab at 90K. It has never been in the shop, save for minor stuff...a starter, an exhaust, a thermostat, etc. It has been well-maitained obviously, but it gets its fair share of miles (about 17K/yr.). People STILL ask about it when I am driving it..."Wow, nice truck, etc". So, at almost 140,000 miles, it is still an absolute great, reliable vehicle that looks good, runs good and has a ton of life left in it from all indications. I would have to say that you would be hard pressed to find a better vehicle in this category. A classic lives on...

  • Rolling Ranger - 1993 Ford Ranger
    By -

    Ive had my Ranger since 93 and its been one of the most reliable trucks Ive owned. It now has 173000 miles and its still going strong. The only major repair Ive had was a hydraulic leak in the transmission 5 years ago. I plan on keeping this one for a lot longer hopefully.

  • Not Many Compaints - 1993 Ford Ranger
    By -

    Overall it has been a good truck. It has taken a royal beating and keeps on going. Only problems have been that I lost the cruise control at about 85,000 miles and have to replace the brakeswitch about every six months. The transmission is about shot, but that is to be expected after 125,000. Oh-ya and the AC died last year. It has served its perpose and I will miss it as soon as I can get rid of it.

  • Amazing - 1993 Ford Ranger
    By -

    Vehicle has 218,000 miles. Oil changed approx every 5,000 miles. Still getting approx 28 mpg. Good rust resistance. Tows a horse trailer, not well, but it gets the job done. A work horse.

  • What a piece of junk - 1993 Ford Ranger
    By -

    This truck has got to be in the running for the worst vehicle I have ever owned! The 2.3 L 4 cylinder doesnt provide enough power to get this thing out of its own way. The transmission routinely grinds going into 2nd and thats with a new clutch. The thing is reasonably reliable, but its miserable to drive due to the lack of power. I have lost track of how many times the rotors have been cut and yet theyre warped again within a couple of months. I have other Fords and am quite satisfied with them, but this Ranger is a dog. Avoid it if you have a chance.

  • Great Truck - 1993 Ford Ranger
    By -

  • THE truck - 1993 Ford Ranger
    By -

    My Ranger is extremely reliable. Im not a college student and I learned how to drive a standard on this truck, and it STILL works great - 90,000+ miles.

  • Cant kill this truck - 1993 Ford Ranger
    By -

    It seems the more you work a Ford to death the longer it lasts. After laying to rest my older Ford Ranger diesel I purchased my stripped down 4 cylinder long bed in 1993. After severly beating on this truck with my needs and others it is still going strong in 2002. Other than changing the clutch and routing maitenance it is still going strong. Dont baby these trucks. They can take it.
