VERY dependable

I've owned this truck since 97 and I've had only minor problems with it. Since I purchased it I've replaced the battery, a heat control valve (17 bucks and I put it on myself in about 2 minutes and I'm NOT mechanically inclined), brakes, tires, uhhh...that's about it. Nothing major at all. I did however have a problem with the dome light/door ding chime thing staying on for hours after the door was closed. After finally researching it on the net I discovered the problem was only a stuck or gooped up sensor. The solution was to spray the door switch mechanism with WD-40. That was about 2 years ago and I haven't had that problem since. I have about 140,000 miles on this truck and I would definitely buy another Ford Ranger whenever this one dies which I hope won't be for a long long time. Love this truck!
