I have been paying 5.5 years on this car. I used to work on the road with a 99% travel job. I would buy her a new car every time the warranty ran out so I was trading every 3 to 4 years. I changed jobs 3 years ago so I was at home every night and this car had a 5 year warranty so I decided we will keep it a bit longer as I was tired of being upside down on the car loans most of the time.

Since the warranty ran out last June I have replaced the battery, thermostat housing, water pump, spark plugs, 2 coils, and the tire pressure control board. It will get a for sale sign on it once I receive the title.

I did a little checking on the Ranger battery. It has a mfg date of Feb 09 so the PO replaced the battery right before I got it - it is a 60 month battery. Cranked without issue this morning in 24 degree weather.
