endgame Selling my 1997 Ford Ranger XLT with only 49k miles. This is a 1997 Ford Ranger XLT with 2.3L 4-cylinder engine and a 5-speed manual transmission with very low mileage for it's year - just under 49k miles. I have owned this truck for the past 4 years, owned but not really driven. Bought it back in 2010 and drove it from Florida here to Georgia and then used it for couple of months here around town, putting less than 1000 miles to it. In mid 2010 I have left and spent the last 3 and 1/2 years abroad. During that time the truck was parked in the garage. I have now decided to offer it for sale since I will be leaving again and perhaps it would be better if this truck actually served someone else. This is an XLT trim, so it comes equipped with the following options: rear sliding window, bucket seats, alloy wheels, ABS, driver airbag, radio with CD and four speakers, power steering, air conditioning. Mechanically, the truck is in excellent condition. The engine starts right up and runs smoothly, the transmission is tight and the clutch is good, a/c blows cold. The all season Firestone tires have plenty of thread left as well. After I bought the truck in 2010, I changed the oil, oil filter and air filter (they have less than 500 miles on them). I also replaced the spark plugs at that time. I also did a few other small upgrades: upgraded the rearview mirrors to larger and better looking ones (from a later model Ranger), replaced the original orange front turn signals with white ones (still have the original mirrors and turn signals). I also installed four bull-ring retractable truck bed anchor points and bough new interior color matching floor mats. Everything on the truck works as supposed to with the only exception being the fuel gauge, it always shows empty but this is a fairly common issue with Rangers. Cosmetically, the truck is in very good condition, there are some small dings and scratches on the truck bed (visible on pictures) and one scratch running from passenger door to truck bed (pictured separately). The paint is all original and in very good condition, there is no rust, this is a southern car, been all it's life. The truck bed underneath the liner is as good as new (pictured). See the pictures and make your own judgement. This truck is ready to be driven and serve for many more years. There are not that many left with such low mileage. With its 4-cylinder engine it's also quite good on gas. I have the title in hand. If you have any questions, just ask. Terms and Conditions: The vehicle is sold AS-IS, WHERE-IS. I will not ship/deliver. Buyer is responsible for pickup or shipping. Any shipping must be arranged and paid for by the buyer. Full payment required within 7 days after end of listing. I accept cash in person when picking up the car or bank wire transfer.
