Review
Fun to drive. Sits high. Handles like a
sports car. Hauls like a truck.
Everything you would need in a vehicle.
Comfortable seats, good fuel economy,
nice view of the road, great sounding
stereo, A/C works good. The EDGE has
great ground clearance and looks good
with the raised hood and grill.

Review
Not to satisfied with my first Ford.
Hood was way out of aligned when I got
it. Got only 400 miles to a tank. I
was hoping for at least 420. Sheet
Metal is a small gauge. I can feel
the hood actually buckle when I wax.
Also the paint is poor quality.
Interior is outstanding. Seats are
comfortable. Lots of cup holders, and
the cup holder can hold a coffee mug
with a handle. Instrument cluster is
laid out in a good way. Do not like
rotary headlight control. Engine very
weak in 4th gear. If want to pass,
cut off your AC, pop it in 3rd, and
hope. Step rear bumper too small.

I am very happy with this truck so far!
It has all the power a truck its size
would need. It has a classy look, but
will do its work. The ride is quiet and
the suspension gives a feel of
sturdiness without being rough. The
front seats are extremely comfortable.
It's pleasing to drive & it makes me
smile just looking at it. I think I'm
in love!!

Review
Purchased Ranger based on Price and
options. Previously owned Chevy 2WD
extended cab pickup. The only current
issue is the amount of space in the
cab. My S-10 could transport three
people easier then the Ranger. My only
initial problems were that the door
alarm kept coming on because the
extended cab doors would not latch
tightly enough. Dealership corrected
this problem. The heater and air
conditioning still gives off a faint
odor when being operated. My vehicle
currently has 5200 miles

This is my second Ranger, last one was
a 02 model. While my 02 model was a
lemon in every since of the word my 03
has been fantastic. I average 22 mpg
in the city and 26 mpg on the highway,
and I am a very lead-footed driver.
Overall perofrmance is excellent for a
4 cylinder truck, next to my 96 Accord
this is the best vehicle purchase I
have made.

Review
Can't direct cold air to floor, poor
fit & finish (e.g. uneven gaps,
underspray behind gas door, around rear
door hindges, under hood, engine pings,
sick exhaust note, sliding window
rattles & ticks (makes me crazy), tach
buzzes at specific RPM range, right
rear door rattles, turn signal
cancelation mechanism is defective on
nearly all Fords (prevents operation
when wheel is at 10:00 & 2:00
positions, premature cancelation,
fights driver), hood prop rod tears up
paint on underside of hood when
serviced by dealer (needs protective
cap), dealer tears up wheels when
removing center cab due to poor design.

Review
This is my 3rd Ranger in the last 14
years. They are a great truck for the
price. I have had the 2.3, 2.9, and
now the 4.0L engines. The 4.0L is by
far the most powerful. I love the
looks of the truck, both inside and
out. I only have 885 miles on it, but
if the reliability is anything like the
last two, I will be happy. Be sure you
you get the 4.0L. Keep an eye on the
speedometer, because this truck will
fly down the road.

Review
If you are tall like me, the supercab
is the way to go. Even with the seats
all the way back you still have plenty
of room to fit a suitcase or groceries
with ease. However, it isn't very
comfortable for an adult...Children fit
nicely though.
The acceleration is very nice! Merging
into busy traffic or passing that slow
driver in the fast lane isn't as nerve
racking as driving in a 4 cylinder
would be.
Great buy!!!
