Genrally liked the vehicle although I thought heavy on diesel at 25 mpg sensible driving.
5th gear failed at 45,000 miles, kept jumping out of gear.
Spoke to gearbox expert garage and informed that they all do that eventually. This gearbox specialist has even rebuilt the boxs of Rangers for the local Ford dealer whilst they are still under warranty.

I found this review not helpful because... the model Ranger the reviewer had was the previous model not the 2.5 TDCi model
