Personal Ranger milestone
At some point early tommorrow my 1995 4.0L 4X4 ext cab Ford Ranger will hit 200,000 miles (I'm at 199,989)! The only repairs aside from routine maintenace; The famous ranger door switch problems, 1 bad brake caliper at about 60,000, intake gasket replaced at 160,000.
Anybody have an estimate of how many miles a 4.0L V6 can go for??? Mine seems to still run just fine (only burns 1 qt of oil between oil changes). If I were to guess, I'd say my drive train components are gonna give out before the engine.

around 220,000 miles now on my 95 3.0 XLT 2x4 manual trans. i got it as a graduation present in '95 and haven't been the best to it. only major fixes were replacing the clutch and heater core. so, i'd say it's a pretty tough truck. once i get this little oil leak locked down, it won't be using any oil between changes. oil goes in and the same amount comes out. i still get a minimum of 20 mpg mileage. although, i wonder how off that is with the 31" tires, now....
