This truck has been my daily driver for the past 5 years and has been the most reliable vehicle I’ve ever owned. Purchased it from the original owner back in 2021 and it has been very well cared for its entire life.
Work done in the past couple years -
- 8 new spark plugs and coils
- Transmission fluid changed
- Fuel pump & fuel filler neck replaced
- Fuel filter replaced
- O2 sensors
- Oil change ever 3k-5k miles with full synthetic oil
- Brand new Platinum battery
- New Bluetooth radio and speakers
- Front & Rear shocks
- New A/C compressor
I have the CarFax from when I purchased it that shows all the maintenance performed prior to owning it. Tires have lots of tread left on them and the spare is brand new still with sticker on it.
Truck AC is cold and works well. It has the 2.3L Lima engine with a 5 speed manual transmission which is the most bullet proof setup for these old Mazda & Ford Rangers.
I was planning on keeping this truck forever but I recently bought a new vehicle and the wife is wanting me to sell it. I purchased a new clutch, flywheel, slave cylinder, Hydraulic fluid reservoir, starter, full exhaust with new catalytic converter all in anticipation of changing that out at some point. Spent about $1,200 on all of these parts to put in eventually. Truck doesn’t need any of it right now, but again I was planning on keeping this truck for a very long time.
If you are looking for one of these Ford Ranger Mazda B-Series trucks, this is the one to buy. Turn key mini truck that has been very well kept and should have no problem going another 200k miles.
