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 is the mid-range choice Ford shoppers picked for its extra power over the Splash and the option of four-wheel drive. The 4.0L V6 delivers 160 horsepower through an {automatic transmission} and {four-wheel drive}, which gives it confident traction in rain or on gravel but returns 16 mpg combined. The XLT's off-road capability is limited by its basic suspension, so expect a truck built for light trails rather than rock crawling.
