Even with not being garaged and dry hot summers, the rubber gasketry around windows and doors is still tight at 24 years of age. Metallic silver is worn out. My baby I love my ranger.
Like Timex Honestly, I don't take the greatest of care of it, yet it still runs as if. I do regular maintance. Bought it new, never wrecked, never had heads off in k miles!!! Still Running Strong Never have had any major problems at all. Always dependable. Even after being 20 Years old. Special addition to the lineup was Ranger Splash, which featured retro-styled step-side bed, chromed wheels and other visual improvements.
There was more space inside the cab, mostly because of a wider cab, which again came in a pair of two-door variants. Other than redesigned seats and some minor upgrades, the interior saw limited modifications. There was a focus on safety, with updates including anti-lock brakes, side impact guard beams and airbags for both driver and passenger.
There were no significant changes under the skin, as the engine range comprised familiar units. Besides a four-cylinder Pinto and Cologne V6, there was also a newly developed Vulcan V6 engine that offered improved performance and fuel economy. Being more of a sport truck than a work-horse, this generation had no diesel option.
Besides the five-speed manual and four-speed automatic transmission options, this generation was the first to offer a five-speed automatic.
Just like in the previous generation, the rear-wheel drive configuration was standard, with an all-wheel drive as an option. In its third iteration, the Ranger received only a mild visual update, with outer design being similar to the old version. Notable modifications were lower the hood line, redesigned fenders, and grille similar to the F of that time. The biggest change was the Super Cab variant, which was the first truck in this segment to use rear-hinged doors.
Just like with body design, the interior was very similar to that of the previous generation. Unlike conservative exterior and interior updates, the chassis and drivetrain in general received major improvements. At the front, a double wishbone suspension replaced the long-running Twin I-Beam setup.
Coupled with rack-and-pinion steering instead of recirculating-ball assembly, this improved both handling and ride comfort. There was a significant frame redesign, as box sections replaced C-channel construction for increased structural rigidity.
During the beginning several years, engine options were like those of the previous generation, with a four-cylinder Pinto and several V6 units. Later during the production, a Mazda sourced four-cylinder engine replaced the aging Pinto.
Similar to the previous generation, transmission choices included both five-speed manual and automatic, with rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive variants available. Despite the huge success achieved throughout all three generations, the sale figures for the Ranger declined during the s.
This was in part because of the increasing competition from both domestic and import rivals. Another contributing factor was the arrival of SUVs and crossovers, which targeted similar buyers. While Ford was planning to unveil the fourth generation, the recession of put a stop to these efforts. Instead, they have dropped the Ranger and focused on F-series trucks only. Page Filling The Fuel Tank Cleaning the Engine A clean engine is more efficient because a buildup of grease and dirt acts as an insulator, keeping the engine warmer than usual.
