It is one of my dreams to one day buy a 88-92 body extended cab 4x4 one day. I’d give it a lift, roll bar with lights, and some nice off-road chrome rims! Keep up the great content with this truck! 👍

Back in 2002 my uncle in Mississippi was fixing a air conditioner for one of his clients and her brother in law asked if he knew anyone that would be interested in buying a 12 year old truck that was still in good condition. He was unsure at first but decided to check it out and brought his dad along. At the time my uncles van was getting repairs done on it so he thought maybe he could use the truck in the meantime. When they arrived the guy said his late brother bought this 1990 Ford Ranger XLT brand new fresh off the lot and drove it over 16000 miles. Then sadly died afterwards. His wife had it sitting in their garage for 12 years and the guy finally convinced his sister in law to selling because ever since her husband died no one was using it. Despite it being practically brand new they sold it for $1500. My grandfather said buy it son you can’t go wrong with this truck. I wouldn’t mind having it. About a month later after getting his van back my uncle called his dad saying (dad I got my van back come over here I’m going give the truck to you now. 6 years ago my grandfather was now 77 and he passed the Ford Ranger down to me. I love it just like he did and it still running good.

Thanks for sharing! I absolutely love my little ranger! When my other vehicles fail the ranger never does. My Grandpa bought this one in 1992 as the second owner. It only had a few thousand miles on it when he bought it. He only used it to go around town and the mountains with. When I inherited the pickup It only had 68000 miles on it!

Awesome truck you got there. I just bought a 91 ranger with an auto transmission. Still has the factory Ford bed liner and factory floor mats both are in very good condition. Leather seats no stains or rips and factory radio still works. Got to get the strut mount on driver side replaced but other than that, I’d drive to the beach and back.

passed. Wanna make the nose look better you can swap in a 1990-1993 ford explorer grill. It's a strait swap. No mods to make it fit. It's more aerodynamic also. Tilt/cruise control steering column with a stick shift is rare.
