I bought the vehicle because I liked being able to haul things when I needed to, I was always see something at a yard sale I wanted and with this truck I could get it, I also did a lot of lawn work and it was great for hauling all of those supplies. Being a female I liked that it was small enough to handle like a car as well. I never had any mechanical issues with the vehicle either, It was a standard shift and that was great on fuel. My model had the fold down seats in the back for extra passengers, Until the kids got to tall for it was so easy for them to ride in the back. The only thing I did not like about the truck might have been that the fold down area was so small, but all in all I really had no complaints with it. I hate that I had to trade it when the kids needed more space. I would buy another in a minute!

The Ranger is small enough to be practical for living in the suburbs but also large enough to haul small furniture, shopping, and trash hauls. It has exceeded expectations in the winter, providing my husband and I with a reliable means of transportation in the snow.
