1994 Ford Ranger XL Long Bed needs repair

This is one of my favorite vehicles of all time. It has lots of bed space, nimble steering, great breaks because of the bed length I guess, nice power, very reliable, simple work truck. It was repainted a couple years ago, has No Rust. It’s Southern Truck. The tires are about a year old. I used the truck to move refinished leaded glass entrance doors, one or two at a time. Light duty for sure. I bought it from a construction company with 75,000 miles on it in 1997. They used it as a supervisor’s truck to drive from Atlanta to South Carolina and back.

Main Street Automotive replaced a leaking intake manifold gasket and said it badly needed a tune-up. It was time, so I personal replaced the spark plugs, wires, distributor cap, and rotor. It didn’t run right so I took it right back to them thinking I did something wrong. They later diagnosed it to have a leaking compression in one cylinder. It idles rough but runs ok. I paid them $100.00 to do a overall engine assessment before they replaced the gasket!! They said everything was good for an older vehicle except for the failed gasket. To that, all I can say is AMAZING! Obviously they never did the assessment. It has since been diagnosed with a bad valve by someone else.

I’m semi-retired and decided to get a bigger truck as I wouldn’t need to be as concerned as much with gas mileage. I still like my Ranger better.

THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF SCAMMERS WHO OPEN A NEW ACCOUNT, HAVE NO PURCHASE HISTORY, AND BID THE VEHICLES UP, ONLY TO BE HIGHEST BIDDER AND NEVER HAVE ANY INTENTION ON PURCHASING. YOU AND I BOTH LOSE, YOU GET OUT BID AND I FIND NO LEGITIMATE BUYER.

IF THIS HAPPENS AGAIN I WILL CONTACT THE NEXT HIGHEST LEGITIMATE BIDDER AFTER THE AUCTION AND OFFER THEM ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY TO PURCHASE.

THANK YOU. ENJOY THIS TRUCK
