1990 Ford Ranger XLT 2dr Extended Cab 4WD SB (2.9L 6cyl naturally aspired 5M)
I bought a 1990 ranger ex-cab in 2005 it had 80,000 original miles on it then. I drove that truck in every terrain think able. And it never quit. It was a real nice rig for the price. I bought it for 2500 and sold it in 2009 for 1900 cash. I over 1000,000 miles on it and it only had a few minor hick-ups. Sold it b/c my family out grew it. But I wish I still had it. Best truck ever
love it!

1990 Ford Ranger 2dr Regular Cab LB (2.3L 4cyl naturally aspired 5M)
If your looking for a reliable, easy on fuel (2.3 liter) pick up truck I recommend a ford ranger. I have owned the truck for two years and did not put one cent in repairs.

1990 Ford Ranger 2dr Regular Cab SB (2.3L 4cyl naturally aspired 5M)
Bought in 2009 with 25,000 original mi. certified on Carfax. This is as basic of a truck as you can get. No power steering or radio. But a great small work truck. Added a CD player myself. Other than oil changes no maintenance has been needed.
