You seem about excited about yours as I was mine. Best little trucks. They’re so overlooked. Only problem of mine is it isn’t 4wd but it’s still a monster as a 2wd. The best first truck. Teaches you to appreciate things. Buying your kids the newest vehicles don’t teach them any kind of appreciation. Everyone i went to school with got newer trucks and I got my ranger. All of them have had multiple trucks due to either their trucks failing or being totaled. I still have my first truck while they’re on their 4th or 5th. Appreciate your ride man, if you take care of that ranger it’ll take care of you. Mines been through high school, college, girlfriend, marriage and soon a baby. Never let me down.
You ever have any issues with the timing chains in this thing? These sohc 4.0s are notorious for developing a timing chain rattle known as the "death rattle". Shitty tensioner is the main cause of it. Once it develops the rattle it's only a matter of time before it breaks and locks up the engine. Usually can be heard at cold starts or when revving at 3-4k rpm. Thinking of buying an '03 fx4 level 2 with 115k on it with the same 4.0 sohc. Once the guides are shot you have to remove the engine to get to the rear chain setup.
Doctor Chronos hey dude sorry I took so long to respond I don’t know exactly what it is - my dad got it installed but I do know the muffler is a turbo muffler
Derek Whitmer I think the 4.0 is good because mine is over 200,000 miles and is still running strong but I can’t really say for the 2.3 because I’ve never had one of those
All motors are extremely reliable. Depending on what's important for you & what kind of driving you'll be doing. If MPG is key & not off roading, then anything smaller than the 4.0l is for you. If you want power, torque & towing capabilities than 4.0l is the best motor.
Got an 01 with 114k in Feb2020 & extremely happy with my Ranger! Best purchase ever for me. So easy to work on & maintain!! Parts are cheap. You won't be disappointed
Good job, I coudnt find a good review on other videos like that, im trying to find a truck like that and this review helped me alot. Keep up the good work.
No joke... I have the exact same broncos sticker in the exact same spot on my 01’ ranger.... also, just an idea, throw some subs in the back because the back seats are useless, that’s what I did. Nice truck though. I have some pictures of my ranger on my insta @mr.shady22 if you are interested.
This feels more in depth than other reviews
Excellent review, very nice truck too.

Preach ❤️❤️
Yessirr
Fair warning try not to show your plates. There's plenty of stalkers and creeps out here.and your plates have alot of info attached to it
Best ranger review I've watched yet. My definition of a good vehicle review.
I remember watching this video a few times before I bought my Ranger! Still have it! Runs great! Mine’s a 2010 Ranger.
Awesome video! im looking to get one for my first truck, and i love the mods that you have done to it! keep up the good work with your videos!
Hey thanks man I appreciate that
@@natetron1604
How much did this Ford
Ranger cost.
Sharp looking truck cheers from a 94 owner!
Great Video Nate! I am looking for a 2001 Ranger for my Son and your video provided great info on the overall style and function of that Truck.
Cool truck!
I would love one of these but with manual transmission.
Yea me too
I have one, but you gotta be careful because the slave cylinder goes out after a while and you can shift until you replace it.
I'm looking at some Ford Rangers and this was a great detailed video. Most reviewers don't show near as much you have. Thanks for the details!
Thank you for showing the vehicle I learned a lot about the car before going to look at a used one.
Thank you, Nate for this in-depth review. I'm looking into getting a 2001 Ford Ranger for 2200
Did not know about the jump seats. Pretty cool
It was a good review, very helpful. Thanks!
I have the same exact truck and it is awesome for me. Enjoy it while it lasts keep it as long as possible. Love the review.
It's got the GT motor V6 coyote that's a pretty mean truck
I got annoyed how there were 99 comments..
Do more car reviews, you go more in depth with every inch of the vehicles than any other reviews I've seen
Great video! Ford rangers gettin the attention they deserve!
This is a solid video man good job also nice truck I have one just like it but mine is blue
Nice little truck. It’s in great shape.
Ima get one of these, never knew they had 4 seats. I can go fishing with the boys.

Where did you get that ranger sticker ? That thing is dope
TDreacts I actually got it custom made from a family friend but any place could make it
Nate Tron oh ok thanks for the response I need that
Is the 4.0 better or the 2.3 far as reliability😃🤘🏻
Derek Whitmer I think the 4.0 is good because mine is over 200,000 miles and is still running strong but I can’t really say for the 2.3 because I’ve never had one of those
2.3 is gonna be more reliable. The 3.0 though is the best imo it’s bullet proof
McSlama Jama as far the v6 I would go for the 4.0L ford rangers 207 hp stock
All motors are extremely reliable. Depending on what's important for you & what kind of driving you'll be doing. If MPG is key & not off roading, then anything smaller than the 4.0l is for you. If you want power, torque & towing capabilities than 4.0l is the best motor.
I'm about to buy an 04 4.0 v6. would you recommend it? 270 miles. any advice?
Bode bx I’m about to buy a 03 4.0 v6 4x4 with 200k miles, I hope we both are happy with the purchases
@@sanddabs159 Good luck mate!
Got an 01 with 114k in Feb2020 & extremely happy with my Ranger! Best purchase ever for me. So easy to work on & maintain!! Parts are cheap. You won't be disappointed
How old is this kid?
I'm guessing 16 or 17
What engine is it? Horsepower?
This must be your first car?
Good job, I coudnt find a good review on other videos like that, im trying to find a truck like that and this review helped me alot. Keep up the good work.
Very nice truck i really want to buy one.

DIXIE LAND I’ve had it for 2 years and have done nothing to it
What rims and tires are those ? And same for the exhaust what exhaust do you have ?
Did you do your actual research on this ranger before you made this video?
No joke... I have the exact same broncos sticker in the exact same spot on my 01’ ranger.... also, just an idea, throw some subs in the back because the back seats are useless, that’s what I did. Nice truck though. I have some pictures of my ranger on my insta @mr.shady22 if you are interested.
