i dont like the huge dint in the finder or the fact that its its a 4 cylinder but i do like the fact that for a truck and one with a small engine that it can scoot and will get up to a top speed of 115 which is more than enough for the size of the engine and the amount of miles on it

Pros — its got ok acceleration and overall top speed for a 4 cylinder truck thats 12 years old
Cons — its a 4 cylinder

Alright on gas but it doesnt have as much pow4er as i would like it to. I also wished it had more cabin space.

Pros — Air Conditioning, CD player, Can Haul stuff
Cons — 4-cylinder, standard cab (no room for sound system)

Cons — the 2.3 4 banger is so so but when i drive my dads Silverado it feels like a supercar

For being a regular cab and a 4-cyl, it was a pretty good truck. Ran great, looked good. It handled pretty good too.

Pros — Looks, handling
Cons — Power

No matter where I took that  little rearwheel drive, 4 cylinder truck it never ever broke down, and when my car did I knew the ranger would be there

Pros — good gas mileage, fun to drive, small like a car but could haul like a truck
Cons — wasn't 4 wheel drive
