We have 3 Rangers in my family. Mine is the oldest at 1994 1/2. Rugged and simple. 4 cyl short bed. 440k miles and counting. Mobil 1 Ow-40, and no engine smoke...wee consumption. To date, engine has never been opened! I have rebuilt the steering linkage and the ac system. Ugly, needs paint. (Probably won't get it!) I'm at least, the third owner. I really like and prefer the simple cross-arm front suspension of these earlier models.
