Ford Ranger XLT Double Cab 2006

5 star review

I have had my 06 Ranger for 18 months now and love it! It runs on mud terrain tyres and will go anywhere! Has pulled out my friends L200 and is much more reliable than my other friends Navara! Regularly pulls a horsebox, an off road range rover (very heavy) and occassionally a boat! Would agree about pulling off in 4wd when towing to save the clutch. So far just had regular servicing and recently had it’s 60k cambelt service which was very easy/cheap to do! Great load bed space and a really good value truck to own and drive.

Ford Ranger Thunder 2006

5 star review

I have a 56 plate Thunder 2.5 and can not fault it, it has done everything I have asked it to, and some. I regularly go off road and tow trailers and boats over rough ground, without a problem. The only thing I could say about it, is the fact that there is a bit too much power on the back wheels when in 2WD, can be fun in the wet on corners, kind of reminds me of the old Capri in that respect. As I have read all the above, I can honestly say that I have not experienced any of what has been said (touch wood) and would be quite happy to replace with another when the time comes.

Ford Ranger Thunder twin cab pickup 2006

3 star review

During the last few weeks very bad weather our Ford Ranger has been virtually impossible to stop when trying to brake on a steep incline. It rolled backwards for over 100 yards on one steep drive before I could stop it. Another time it shot forwards onto a main road when I lightly applied the brake. My wife had a similar experience with it and could not stop it even when applying the hand brake as well. We are now very wary of it and wonder whether to just get rid of it.
