My boys have had two Rangers, yeah I know, they were teenagers.

Both trucks rolled when they slid into ditches, yeah, I know, they were
teenagers.

One was an '86 Ranger, the other was a '93 ranger. Don't know if they
have changed the wheel base width since then or not, but they were
narrow enough and top heavy enough that they rolled when a wider truck
likely wouldn't have.

I have never, ever heard of anyone having problems with rolling
Rangers. Methinks they were driving a bit too fast.....

Pretty cramped if you have any size to you.

Well, I'll have to disagree. I have the extended cab (but still two
doors), and I've had my 6'4" 280 lb husband in the front seat, and my
6'5" and 6' sons in the jump seats. *That* was cramped G

I find there's more room in that Ranger than in hubby's extended cab
Tacoma.

Yeah I've driven Rangers my whole life, absolutely love those trucks.
Doesn't mean I wouldn't drive an S-10 or Colorado or whatever Chevy calls
them these days. I stick to American vehicles only, but Toyota does make
excellent trucks no doubt about it.
For home repair and light yard detail my Ranger pickup is perfect, the
engine is solid, the bed will hold a 4x8 sheet of drywall or plywood, and it
will haul 10 6x6 treated raised garden bed posts.
