What Owners are Saying About the 2000 Ford Ranger Regular Cab

"GREAT"

"I drove this truck for 10 years and put 140,000 miles on it. Great truck. Never had any engine or transmission issues. The only thing I had to replace are typical things that wear out over many miles (tires, alternator, suspension, timing belt, etc.) Ford makes great trucks."

"most durable and reliable vehicle in its class"

"This is my second Ranger and they have both been totally bulletproof. Have 175,000 miles on this one. The 3.0 V6 is unbreakable and continues to run strong. The ONLY issue it has ever had is the notoriously weak factory radiator with the plastic end caps. This is the only major component that has ever been replaced. Everything else is original except wear items of course. They might be a bit rattly and smaller inside but if you want a totally dependable vehicle this is definitely one to consider."

"A good truck."

"Got it on October last year. Only thing that needed replacement was the driver's side window regulator, rear door cables fix, new 180° thermostat (was deleted an ran way too cold) and fixing a bad battery terminal connection the previous owner made. Other than that, nothing. Just routine maintenance. The 3.0L vulcan won't win any races but get's the job done. The ride is bumpy, as expected from a truck, but not too bad. Handling is meh, again, to be expected, but a 94 dodge dakota I used to have was better in that area. Would add a rear sway bar later on to tighten it up a bit. Turning radious is not bad. Turns tighter than my mustangs. ABS is really good. Fuel economy is about 17 mpg avg. here in hot PR and stop & go traffic I really like this truck! Plan on keeping it for many years."
