The 2001 Ford Ranger continued its reign as the hottest selling compact pickup truck in the US. An exterior redesign for the '01 model year gave the new Ranger a more intimidating appearance, with a big-shouldered front end and sturdy new side flares. This incarnation of the Ranger looked a lot closer to its roots in farm and ranch, borrowing design cues from the F-150.
Three trims were available for the '01 Ranger: XL, XLT, and the new Edge trimline. The Edge trim, a sporty monochrome styling aimed at younger drivers, featured interior and exterior touches that mirrored some of the ways tuners had customized earlier Rangers. XL, the entry-level trim for the 2001 Ranger, offered plenty of comfort; XLT added some interior touches, as well as incorporating options like power windows and mirrors. Bodystyles available were Flareside and Styleside; cab configurations offered were two-door Regular Cab, and two- and four-door extended cab SuperCab.
Shipped with a 2.3 liter inline-4 engine, the '01 Ford Ranger offered two attractive upgrade options for drivers seeking more muscle under the hood: a 3.0 liter V-6 or a new single overhead cam 4.0 liter V6 delivering 207 horsepower and plenty of torque. Two-wheel and four-wheel drive options were available; Ford's proprietary part-time four-wheel drive system provided the flexibility to meet varying road conditions.
My 2001 XLT AC blower's speed fluctuates. I have owned this truck from new and never had an issue with the AC in 24 years. It blows very cold, then after the truck heats up, the blower slows, I switch it to normal AC and it starts working again for a short time. Back and forth from AC to max AC , the fan's 3 speeds stays the same also. No issues for 24 years and now this. Any ideas please?
I have a 2001 Ranger. The fan/blower for the heater or AC works intermittently. Any thoughts? Thank you.
I ran my 2001 ford ranger (245,000 miles) without a problem oil changes every 5,000 miles i started smelling burnt oil and within a week it started making a load clanking noise i got it to a gas station and they put almost 4 quarts of oil in it and that made it quiter but it's still there I know a shop will have to fix it but being a woman I would like a little help so I am not taken advantage of
Starts with starting fluid but dies there after. Help
I got a 2001 ford ranger. And the bed is not so good, what years can I use to replace the bed?
