Guest Bowhunter2114 Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 What milage you guys up to??? Might be buying a Ford Ranger with 200,000miles. The truck looks like it is almost brand new! All I need is an exhaust and clutch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeramie Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 Re: Ford Ranger I use to have a nice little stepside ranger. Its basically a toy. They lack power and have NO room. The gas does pretty good. If I remember I was getting low 20's. However, unless youre getting it for a steal I wouldnt buy anything with 200k. The mileage will plumit for one. I had a 1997 F150 for years. I racked up TONS of miles. It had the v6. It was running about 17-18mpg. I later upgraded to a newer F150 with the 5.4 V8 and I figured it would really eat my lunch. Turns out it gets the same or better. If youre getting a steal on the truck thats one thing but I couldnt touch it with that many miles.

Guest Bowhunter2114 Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 Re: Ford Ranger $1000. Like I said the mileage is its downfall. The truck is well kept. I am looking for it to get me through a couple of months (1 year) till I build up my credit and get a loan. (I turn 18 in Feb). I figured if I could get away with buying exhaust and clutch I will do so. Maybe I will get lucking and have one of those high milage rangers. I have heard of a lot of them getting 300,000 miles before major repair, I understand this is not likely though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
