Bought a 96 ranger xlt from an older couple at work. Dash shows 149k but the worm gear is broke. They said it has less than 170k miles. Air doesn't blow cold but the interior is pretty nice. Drives great. 4wd works, has power locks and windows.... Couldn't pass it up.
Got it tagged today and 2 new tires on the front to match the back. With an alignment it cost me $319. Sold the subwoofer and amp that came in it to my wives Co worker for $100. So I've got $719 in the pick up.
Got it home, checked the fluids, oil is a little low (no leaks) and dirty, and the tranny fluid is low and black. Looked at the tranny pan, it's leaking. Going to put a new fuel filter in, change the oil, put a new tranny pan on with a drain plug and put a new filter/fluid in it. Should be good to go then. Can't believe I got this thing dirt cheap!
