Great little truck

2011 Ford Ranger XL 2dr Regular Cab Styleside SB (2.3L 4cyl 5M)
7 of 7 people found this review helpful

I bought this truck used 3 years ago with 32,800 miles on it. 2.3L with the 5 speed automatic. (Wish I could have found a manual) . I now have almost 65,000 on it and have made only two repairs. First being front pads and rotors. The second was water started leaking into the cab through the cargo light. (Common problem according to the internet) Ford will only sell you the whole housing but I was able to find a gasket on eBay for under 20 dollars and its been dry ever since. These are not fancy trucks and won't turn heads but they will get you from A to B and van haul a light load. Fuel economy is good I've gotten as high as 30 on the highway but usually average anywhere from 26-28. Wish they still made them simple like this but I think those days are over.

Buy an extended cab. The standard does not have any room other than for 2 people. Good mileage. If heater becomes an issue it is a headache to have fixed.

Best Truck I've Owned

2011 Ford Ranger XLT 4dr SuperCab 4WD Styleside SB (4.0L 6cyl 5M)
7 of 8 people found this review helpful

The 4.0L is a very durable motor however do not expect to tow very much with this truck. It is a perfect truck for running errands, doing yard, hauling a small trailer, hauling motorcycles, etc. Averages about 18 mpg.

I've had a long love affair with Rangers

Ford made a great truck when they made the Ranger, with the exception of the seats, but that's all Ford trucks. Rangers haul a good load, great on gas, low on repair bills and are like a faithful horse. Plus, they look good. I dressed mine up with bedliner, bed rails, chrome rims some decals, and do regular maintenance.
