“My Ford Ranger is a very dangerous vehicle. It is built unstable/balanced, it vibrates and also shakes uncontrollably. It has almost taken my life twice!

The 2003-4 model have the same problems, but ironically the toyota tacoma has no problems at all that are related to these of the Ford Ranger. …”
