Well I'm am a Ford Parts man for over 30 years. I own 2 Rangers, guys have put out some good points, haven't heard many of the bad ones so I am asuming no one from the north east rust belts have replied. I only know from my side of the counter it's tough to wear our a 4cyl ranger, we have many with well over 200K on them, but they don't look good here in Pa. I personally like the 3.0 V6 just because they too have been trouble free, but I like the power of the 4.0 much better on these Pa Hills. My 3.0 will only give me 21.5 in the summer But I love the trk. The 4.0 in the summer get 19.5 to 20, both have 3.73 axle ratio. My Choice for the 3.0 would be a 4.10, both are 5speeds.. Both have 125K roughly. I've never touched the 3.0, but the 4.0 I didn't buy new & have replaced the engine. Without proper oil changes & without a new theromstat in a 4.0 every year they will get into your pocket. As for 3.0 & 2.5 they are bullet proof... I just wish they didn't use salt on Pa. Roads.. Both of mine are in good shape only because I wash them high pressure twice a year underneath & spray them with used motor oil/rear axle oil underneath & inside the doors.. Makes a mess but it's the only way they won't rust apart.

As with many things there are often several right answers and a few wrong ones. Some purist I'm sure will disagree to no end with what I will tell you but most of us out here in the real world don't really care do we ? Some of them only bring their noses down out of the air long enough to look down them anyway. If you are like me you are only doing this old tractor stuff because you enjoy it. You
