Best truck ever built...

I've had a 1978 Ranger XLT and currently own a 1996 XLT with 300,000 miles on it. Original power train. Very dependable. Parts are still readily available, although certain niche parts are getting harder to find. Keep up the scheduled maintenance and it will give you great service.

Ford Bronco, No Comparison !!

I own two (2) : a 1990 XLT that I bought in 1991 w/120K and is pristine. The other is a 1996 EB with 121K and is also pristine. I run my vehicles hard but not carelessly and they provide good service. Change your oil every 2500 mi, your axles, every 20K Also, the same for your trans, transfer case and cooling system, every 20K. You'll easily get 200K out of them. There's a network of quality, new , non-dealer parts that can be easily had for a reasonable price. Hose off the undercarriage after every snow and pay due diligence to rust prevention and you'll avoid otherwise common rust problems
