Ranger timing belt sets are cheap just a pain because the A/C parts are in the way when you go to change them. Them 4 cyl seem to hold up well with the higher miles.
Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!

Buy a good used Toyota. Spend twice the amount of money you want to spend.
Please buy a better vechile. Please. ^^ they are not cheep and they are hard to find a good one ( at least down here) take care of it and it should last you for a while! Good luck!

Almost anyone can have a decent vehicle if they have a job. The bank has lots of money to lend,(interest rates are as low as they have ever been) unless you have bad credit.Just stay within your budget. NEVER borrow from loan shark companys or shady car dealers.

Be prepared to be shocked, I have been looking for a used superduty, diesel, 2012s will cost you 2/3 of new. 2016s are within 8gs of new. My neighbor just offered me his 2017 1 ton Super duty (Gas) 82xxx miles. I had to pass because of what the dealership offered. Uh - Seriously, I might as well just buy a new one.

Any fairly new(couple-3 years)used vehicle with low mileage is not much lower in cost than new A lot of people lease vehicles now and turn them over at around 50-60 thousand km.These vehicles are on sale on a lot of lots here for almost same price as new.

Just bought ex mans for a 350, 50 bucks each new, 10 for new bolts. these days a regular guy probably best to pay payments and insurance than "try" to work on his own.
Friend bought new 1 ton 4x4. He said one brand was 5k more than the other. Hear-say but yikes 5k?

Well apparently there not such a super deal if your fixing them all the time. Your buying other people’s problems, you get what you pay for!! You may have a Mechanic issue???? My last truck purchase was a 1988 F250 4x4. I bought it from a local junkyard last fall and drove it home. This spring it will get a remanufactured motor with new belts and hoses. New tires and brakes. Junkyard made a little off of it and when I’m finished it will fit my needs. I’ll know what I’ve got when I’m done.

B I think that's the route I'll go too. I have a 97 250 4x4 that's rusty and needs some love, only has 47k on it. I'm gonna start looking for a southern cab and put a flatbed on it. Do a bunch of work on it and keep the ole girl.
I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....
