Best Ford Ranger Years

I am in the market for a used Ford Ranger, and I’ve been trying to do some research on which model years are the most reliable. I have heard that some years have better performance and fewer issues than others, so I’m hoping to get some advice from those of you who have experience with these trucks. Are there certain years that stand out as the best in terms of durability, engine quality, or overall value? I would really appreciate any insights you could share to help me make a well-informed decision!

Hello there, my father owned a 94 and an 11. They share the same sentiments and have shown to be as reliable. When he traded the 94 for the 11, his pals had no idea he had a new truck.

For durability and engine prowess, the later models often steal the show. However, don’t overlook the older generations; they boast their own charm and ruggedness.

I think it’s because I purchased a shitbox, but my 03 has been an experience.

Focus on newer models (2019+) for advanced features and better fuel economy. Older models (pre-2011) are often praised for durability but lack modern tech. Consider engine type, mileage, and maintenance history when choosing.
