Ford Ranger More than two decades ago, the Ford Ranger debuted as an answer to various compact pickup trucks being made available by Japanese automakers. The Ranger was cleanly styled and offered with a choice of a 6-foot or 7-foot bed. Ford boasted that the Ranger had more interior room than the best-selling imports and that 4-by-8-foot construction material could be carried in the bed.

For about $20 get a new VSS vehicle speed sensor and swap it out. It sits on top of the rear diff.

Otherwise, take it to autozone and have them pull codes for free. Let us know what the codes are and we'll go from there.
