I washed the Ranger on Saturday and finally remembered to bring my camera to Mom's so here's my inherited Ranger:
1994 XLT. 19,000 original miles. I kid you not.

I wouldn't call it "new," but it sure looks new! Very nice! That's in similar shape to my 1991 Audi, though the body seems to be in a little better shape on yours. My interior is pretty good, but your driver's seat is in nicer shape, and you have way more miles. That car of yours has been treated well!

The Ford and the Saturn are both mine.
I guess you can say this is now our Focus. Sister passed away in June and it really hasn't been driven since March. And really hasn't been drove much since her illness started few years ago. Dad told me that they have no intentions of selling or trading it ever. I took care of it mostly for her since she got and will continue to do so. It's a 02 with 92k excellent highway cruiser. Replaced the egr tube and fixed a few things yesterday. Trying to figure out why it doesn't want to start.. have a new coil on the way and hoping that's it as I did find a crack in the coil.
Now that we have the Focus the Aspire is being recycled. All the suspension, engine and trans is going in the Festiva and the shell is going down to the farm. Saving the title just in case for the future.

I'm sorry, but you put a decent amount of work into that Aspire - it deserves better than being turned into a parts car when it runs fine!
Many here have mentioned it is hard to find 'bargain' beater cars anymore - decisions like this are why! Why not sell it to a student that needs cheap wheels?

Man, if that is an SE then you have the red version of my Aunts car with the Zetec and the funky shifting trans that always jumped out of gear. What 5W-20 do you use? EDIT: I see PYB. Aint that a bit thick. PYB? Or is SN thinner
Its a nice car if it runs right, but you say it wont start for no obvious reason? But when you drive it.. peppy aint it.
Would you recommend someone to consider the 02 Focus as an inexpensive used car, or DONT BOTHER RUN AWAY TOO MANY PROBLEMS?

Hes right! You can get almost $1000 for a car like that that sips fuel. Maybe less given condition, but, still. Its a great first car! Their value goes up. That and Geo Metros, Suzuki Swifts, Ford Destivas, amd Honda Civic DX hatch and CRXs. Maybe even Toyota Paseo, anything tiny that sips gas. Dodge Omni doesnt count.
