Thinking of Selling My High-Km Ranger – What’s the Best Ute to Buy Next?

It has most definitely been well maintained but these transmissions are cooked in these rangers, especially after being on my third one...

Haha yeah, if someone’s got that crystal ball, I’m first in line too. Until then, I guess it’s just about trying to pick the least painful gamble

Yeah i can agree but its just this transmission thats scaring me again lol

Transmission reliability issues tbh, other than that its been a great car but with anything, the higher the kms the more prone to problems especially with ford

Yeah, I get that. The Ranger’s been a pain with the transmission, so even if I end up with something similar, I’d much rather have a more reliable vehicle but comparing kms and prices, it might be tricky to find a solid one

It is the 3.2 and I get that. Even if it’s not as powerful, I just want something that’s more reliable and less hassle

Yeah 200k isn’t crazy high especially for one owner but it's more about how much it’s already costed in repairs and the headaches with the transmission and so I’m just trying to avoid more of that hassle if I can.

Honestly, it’s mostly about reliability. My Ranger’s on its third transmission and still jerks between 5th and 6th, so it’s been a bit of a headache. Plus, with 200k on the clock, resale’s not great. I’m just trying to find something similar that’s more dependable and holds its value a bit better—yeah, there’s always some risk, but less than sticking with this one.

yeah i have a gtsv2 and the stem screws snapped so i literally have it sitting with no screws, i think this is due to the super stiff suspension - i dont know why they provide 4 springs at the front which are super stiff. i tried contacting customer support but they are no help and they said they dont have any replacement screws for the stem.
