Reviewing: 2001 Used Ford Ranger 4 Dr XLT 4WD Extended Cab Stepside SB

I love the truck, but I am startimg to see where the previous owner didn't much care about maintenance

Performance is good, it accelerates well, and handles really good.
Build quality is very solid.  I have hit a desk in the middle of the freeway at 80 mph and only broke the grill, rear ended a couple of cars, and there is no visible damage from these.
Appearance is starting to wan due to the previous owner not really giving a crap

Pros — It Rocks
Cons — ummm

This truck is a very good truck. Has good power under the hood, 4.0 V6. The 4WD is great for off-road and in the winter. The interior is very nice, a little small though if you want to have more than one passenger. Gas mileage is another down side, but I love driving this truck.

Pros — Beastly engine, quality interior and styling.
Cons — Gas mileage.

Reviewing: 2001 Used Ford Ranger 4 Dr XLT 4WD Extended Cab Stepside SB

First let me note that mine is actually a 1999, but the 1999 trim options didn't include a 4-door, which mine is. Also, the picture isn't of my exact truck, but the closest I could find. The only difference is that mine is a 4-door extended cab.
Now, that being said, I love the 4-door option, it's so helpful, I love it. Unfortunately I have the 3.0L V6 under the hood, so the mileage is a tiny bit better than my previous Ranger (which had the 4.0L V6), but the difference in power and acceleration isn't worth it, I wish this one had the 4.0L, the 3.0L feels gutless in comparison. The ride is smooth, especially for the miles it has on it, and although I've only had it for a few months now, I have yet to have any problems and think that this year/model/whatever is just as bulletproof as my older Ranger has been.

Pros — I like the stepside styling (some don't agree with me, but I think it looks good), and I love the 4-door option. It also is very reliable and solid, well-built, gets good mileage for its class, and has a smooth, comfortable ride.
Cons — The 3.0L V6 is gutless in comparison to the 4.0L, and doesn't make up for that discrepancy much in mileage. The mileage IS better, but not so much better that it makes having the smaller engine size worth it.

If you are buying a pickup with the intent for hauling allot of of stuff I would recommend the Ford F-150 or any Dodge Ram. This truck is meant to be a low priced car which will get the job done but not do anything extraordinary and it lives up to that. It has some power and can tow a boat or trailer but not very gracefully. Its turning radius is fair especially for a truck and the acceleration is fair.

Pros — Cheap and fairly rugged
Cons — Not great to drive
