I bought my Ford Ranger from a dealership when it was just two years old. Due to it being a former fleet vehicle, it was only $10,000 off the lot, and was in good shape. I wanted a small truck and didn't care about fancy features, and that's what I got.

I got my 2008 Ford Ranger a little more than three years ago, and it has been such a reliable vehicle since I got it. I drive a lot for work and have also gone on several road trips in the truck and have never had any problems in the 60,000 miles I've put on the thing since I got it. As for how it functions as a truck, it's small and more of a car with a truck bed, but it does get the job done for what I need. All in all, it drives extremely well, handles super well, and is probably the best vehicle I have owned.
