Wow, how nice to find such a helpful, wonderful forum!
Being a "girl" who owns a 2000 Ford Ranger XLT, who was never advised that she should take mechanics vs home-ec, I am grateful to find such a friendly and helpful group of people.
This place rocks...
I see I am not the only one that has issues with my Ranger... the same ones as SO many others... seems like FORD should be paying for factory issues not us...
My issues certainly aren't from lack of maintenance... they are manufacturing issues...
If I hadn't inherited this car from my twin who passed over, I'd get rid of it in a heartbeat and NEVER buy another ford...
unfortunately it has deep sentimental value...
But I digress...
Thanks again for this supportive place... Maybe one day I can help out too...
