2006 Ford Ranger XLT?

I have been wanting a new car for some time now. I decided that I really wanted a truck and wasn't worried about the low mpg rating. At first I was considering a 4 door 5 passenger F-150 but decided against it since I dont have children yet. I will probably get a full size truck a few years down the road. Also the smaller trucks are about half the price.

Anyways...I was wondering if I could get some input from people who do/did own a newer Ford Ranger (2006-2007 models) So if you like or dislike anything about this truck or have any information you think I should know about it, it would be much appreciated.

Update:

Also, I am not interested in hearing anything about other trucks so please don't come here trying to convince me to buy a different truck all together. If you have a negative review to offer on the Ranger, I'd like to hear it. But please, no positive reviews on other trucks.

    This might not be the answer that you want to hear but I would generally recommend staying away from Ford.

    My brother-in-law is a lemon law attorney and the majority of his clients are suing Ford. The main reason is because of the number of Fords on the road in comparison to other brands but Ford has not yet reached the level of quality that we would like to see American manufacturers reach.

    I suggest that you research the consumer reports for the 2001 - 2005 Ford Rangers and see how well they scored. Then compare them to other trucks to get the most reliable truck available to you.

    Good luck and all the best!
