  Disappointment - 1991 Ford Ranger
  By mofarmer - May 28 - 12:19 am

  Ive owned this 2.3, 4 cyl, 4wd, 5 speed, short bed ranger for 3 months and is nothing to brag about. I have never exceeded 19 mpg and 14.5-15 is common, with a top speed of about 75 and going up most hills, it might lose 5-10 mph even after dropping a gear. The only good for this truck is most parts are still original, other than the steering sector and the mirrors can never stay in place.

  Best Minitruck out there - 1991 Ford Ranger
  By FordFan - September 5 - 3:08 am

  Just bought this ranger knowing it had a noisy transmission. Once it came out of the shop I fell in love with it. Easy to park, easy to drive and very quiet (fords always are). Plenty of torque from the 2.9 L V6. Twin I beam front suspension, rock solid and rides like a car down the highway. Dont know about the fuel mileage and really dont care if it only gets mid teens. If youre looking to buy one make sure you get one with the Mazda transmission not the Mitsubishi transmission, as the Mazda is cheaper to rebuild and source parts for. No point in throwing away a good running gas engine, but if i can wear the V6 out i plan on a 4BT cummins swap. Great trucks. Built Ford Tough.

  Best 25 year old truck I ever had. - 1991 Ford Ranger
  By HMCIDC - September 5 - 1:05 am

  6 months ago I acquired from a friend of mine who runs a junk yard. I traded him a shotgun for it. They used it to tow junkers around their lot. It is probably the ugliest truck you have seen it a while. It is painted primer grey and most of that is pealing. It has 340 thousand miles on the original motor (4.0 ltr V-6) and transmission (5 speed manual) Has rust over the rear wheel wells and the entire underside. I made the trade thinking I was just going to strip it down and make a rock crawler out f it. To my surprise the truck rides better than my 2011 Silverado. It is an incredibly smooth ride. I replaced the tires and a ruptured brake line and thats it. The 4X4 works great and the motor is smooth and powerful. It has a slight valve tick but does not use any oil at all. I drive it daily because it get much better gas mileage than my Silverado and to think I was going to rip this old girl apart. It started first time, every time all throughout the winter and everything works, every light, every piece of electronics (the stereo rocks) and in four wheel drive the damn thing will climb a tree. She is nothing at all to look at but I wouldnt give this thing up for anything. If a 25 year old ranger runs this good and is this reliable I can only imagine what the new ones are like.

  Good truck - 1991 Ford Ranger
  By rangerman - May 20 - 5:07 pm

  I was very fortunate to get this truck from my friend that was the original owner. It was garage kept and drove only in the city. The XLT package is nice and mine has two-tone paint (light blue top/ light gray bottom).

  263,000 miles, Wow - 1991 Ford Ranger
  By NE Oklahoma - March 31 - 12:17 am

  This is a one owner vehicle. It has 263,000 miles on the original and untouched motor, which was built in Ohio, USA. It still starts easily and goes smoothly at 75 mph. The manual transmission has been difficult to shift at times since 60,000. But, it is still the original transmisssion, having been worked on twice. I just keep changing the oil. Nothing fancy, not synthetic.

  been a great truck - 1991 Ford Ranger
  By justin - July 9 - 8:31 pm

  I bought my Ranger with 139,000 miles on it from the original owner. At 170,000 the over drive went out in the transmission had it rebuilt, Ive got about $2000 bucks in the truck and have been driving it for 5 years and put almost 100,000 miles on in and its been the best vehicle Ive ever owned. Its now got over 230,000 miles on it.

  Invincible - 1991 Ford Ranger
  By Ranger - October 24 - 2:00 am

  i owned a ranger for 2 years and never regretted a minute of it. there simply isnt a better light truck on the market. on road, the handling and power are amazing. the 2.9l has plenty of torque, and the power is trasferred through the road better than most cars. off road, you can put most big trucks to shame. the 4x4 and low range are almost impossible to get stuck in mud snow or trails. accident safety is unreal. i just totaled it by hitting a crown victoria @ 60 then ran into a ditch and flipped 3 times. I walked away w/o a scratch.
