I like the reliability and fuel economy. However, I notice that tire traction could be better and the styling is a bit dated.

Review
I don't understand the words outdated.
It is a great truck with all the power
and style a truck should have. It rides
like a truck. I didn't buy it so that
it with expectations of riding like a
car. The dashboard is great for
reaching all controls and everything is
simple and clearly understandable. One
of the first vehicles I have had in a
while where I didn't need the
operator's manual to set the clock. The
turning radius is also very good. I do
have some issues with the GVW and do
wish it would hold a heavier weight
load. But for the most part it is a
great running truck

Review
Owned a 2002 and now a new 2004 Fx4 II
off road package on both trucks.
The brakes are an improvement from the
02 in 03 and up you can feel and tell
the difference in stopping with the
bigger drums and rotors.
The new gauge dash cluster is trendy but
a step down from before loss of real oil
pressure gage and volt gage 02 had. Now
just idiot lights, not a good trade off.
Mid speed vibration in chassis is still
there. Empty passenger seats vibrate.
With new leather seating option I lost
the lumbar seat adjustments had on the 02.
Also they dropped the driver, passenger
side map lights from the over-head door
light, which is a must for off roading.
Good truck, expect better from Ford.

This is the third Ranger I have owned, have never had to bring them in to the dealer for anything whatsoever, I know some of the vehicle reviews have stated that the Ranger is outdated in several areas, but why meddle with success? it always starts, takes me where i want to go, never quits while running and is very good on gasoline.

Ford Rangers are simply the best light
truck to own. I recently just got a
2001 Ford Ranger XLT supercab 4x4 off-
road. I have gone off roading with
it. The truck is very dependable, in
the woods. It's definitely a must buy.
