My son had a 93 ranger with 175,000 when he bought it. It had always been maintained and was in good shape. He drove the crap out of it but still changed oil and kept up with doing any repairs it needed. At 260,000 he was going off highway and something went wrong and he rolled it. They pushed it up on its wheels after about 20 minutes of it hanging upside down and it started on the first hit. Of course he shut it down right away but Rangers are tough. Don't abuse it too bad and she will last along time.

I have a 1990 ranger with over 350,000 on the trans&rearend 2.3L engine at 155.000 miles I had it rebuild around $1300 I do about 500 miles a mouth with it.it runs good and strong I maintain it all the time. Im the only driver/owner of the ranger. they last long when taken care of I have alot of mods on it. it is a 5speed 17"rims so give it some gas once in awhile.
