1986 Ford Ranger Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Overall, owners of the 1986 Ford Ranger appreciate its ruggedness, towing capacity, and fun driving experience. Many drivers enjoyed the truck's performance and handling, particularly in various weather conditions. However, some were disappointed with the gas mileage, especially when the engine was running hot, and noted occasional maintenance issues with the transmission."
I Love this truck, 2.9L 5-speed, 4 inch rough country suspension lift and 30's, this thing is almost just as good as the 4wd's I play around with and keeps up with the V8's if I try hard enough lol
June 17, 2011Runs good when it's cool, but quits when it's hot.
September 13, 2007My little Ford Ranger was a tough little truck. I had it for over 10 years and only had a handful of break-downs to speak of. It wasn't the best on gas, but gas wasn't that expensive back then. It would tow my trailor with boat and hawl the lumber to the worksite. It was a fun, rugged little truck.

August 17, 2007really liked this truck just cause it was such fun!!could loa the back with about a chord of firewood and still do a ton down the road!....oly reason i sold it was people said it would be to big for the roadsa in england.
August 22, 2010This little truck was wicked fast!!! After i put in V-8! Had a chevy 305 H-O with a 4 speed auto,411's in the rear,dual exhaust.
February 14, 2008I love this truck, my dad built it himself and we always ride in it. When we go muddin we are always the ones to pull the other people out of the mud ;) There is no other truck like it.
September 30, 2011The best littel truck I ever had. When i got it it was just supposed to get me through a coule months. It ended up lasting fro 4 years with no maintenence problems. However finally the transmission did go out and it was just not cost effectve to replace it.
April 2, 2008For how small and light the truck is I'm disappointed the gas mileage wasn't better. I do however love having complete visibility. As well as being able to park my truck just about anywhere because its so small but still being able to carry stuff in it because the engine is so strong.
