I have been asked to give advice by a friend whose teenage daughter is looking at a 2006 Ranger with the 3.0L V6 and automatic transmission. This is her first vehicle and has earned the money to buy it herself so I am trying to make sure she won't be getting a bad one. It is a 2WD model with a lift kit that overall is in very good shape and runs and drives well. It has 147k miles on it but doesn't look it at all. Everything seems to check out on it except shifting into gear has a little resistance. The Ford dealer told them this is normal for this transmission. Is this the case? Also, any things to check on the vehicle would be helpful. Thanks in advance for any advice.
