petrol_head29 Posted November 1, 2010 Report Share Posted November 1, 2010 Like the ranger the fuel consumption is rubbish and at 60mph your on boost ( using the turbo) also keep an eye out for the glow plug light flashing in strange ways this could be a sine off injector problems, and make sure the rear leafe springs have no brakeges, but our ranger was an exelent of road! Just a shame at 40,000 miles we had probelems on. 2004 reg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tadorna Posted November 2, 2010 Report Share Posted November 2, 2010 Have one. Fuel consumption terrible. Leaf springs break. Eats glow plugs and squirty bottle too small considering every puddle you hit flies up and into windscreen. That said I like mine and will drive it to death until I replace it.

Vel Crow Posted October 26, 2011 Report Share Posted October 26, 2011 I've had one bout 18 months now and i love it, getting 27-30mpg and its a pleasure to drive, i had discoverys for the previous 10 years, granted they were better at 60mph+ but off road the mazda is better. You've just got to think about what the truck is being purchased for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
