Just sold a 95 ford ranger with 140K miles. We had only a couple of minor problems in 14 years of ownership. In 2007 it had a sensor problem that was hard for the shop to fix, but once they did we were golden. Great truck, sad to see it go but we didn’t have room for it.
I had a 94 VW, now that thing was a piece. It ran okay but it had so many trim and fit&finish problems it was ridiculous.
