Miles Overview
The 1998 Ford Ranger is a compact pickup that fits into tight parking spots and narrow city streets with ease. It's light and nimble, though the turning radius is wide and the ride can get choppy over rough pavement. The extended cab adds a pair of jump seats and enclosed storage behind the front bench, which owners find handy for groceries. Owners consistently mention the comfortable fabric seats and the truck's ability to haul gear without drama. The XLT adds a tachometer, a chrome rear bumper, and a nicer cloth interior over the base Splash trim. Its 3.0L V6 makes 140 horsepower and pairs with a automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive, which is enough for daily driving but not quick off the line. Expect 17 mpg combined from the V6, which is typical for a compact pickup of this era.
