Dealer Description
The 2006 Ford Ranger XL 2-door Regular Cab with Long Bed (LB) is a compact pickup that blends simplicity, practicality, and basic functionality — a truck built for straightforward use without many of the trappings of a luxury vehicle. At its core, this Ranger comes standard with a 2.3-liter inline-4 cylinder engine, producing about 143 horsepower and 154 lb-ft of torque. It’s paired with a 5-speed manual transmission and rear-wheel drive (RWD). The size and engine make it modestly powered but adequate for everyday driving, errands, and light hauling. Fuel efficiency is fairly decent for a truck: roughly 21 mpg in city driving, and about 27 mpg on the highway. Dimension-wise, the regular cab long-bed configuration offers a seven-foot cargo bed (longer than the 6-foot short-bed version), giving it good utility for carrying bulky cargo, tools, or materials. Despite the longer bed, the cabin remains compact: it seats up to three people, with a simple front split-bench seating arrangement. The cab interior is basic — vinyl or rubber/vinyl upholstery, straightforward gauges, standard front airbags, and essentials like a front power outlet, cup holders, and basic storage. Amenities are minimal but functional, focused more on utility than comfort. Performance-wise, the Ranger’s payload capacity sits around 1,260 lbs, which is respectable for a small pickup, and towing capacity is modest — enough for small trailers or light-duty towing, but it’s not meant as a heavy-duty tow vehicle. The suspension setup — independent front suspension and a solid rear axle — supports everyday driving and light loads; the rear axle and live-axle design emphasize simplicity and reliability over comfort or on-road refinement. The truck’s appeal lies in its no-frills honesty. It’s not flashy, doesn’t come loaded with electronics or luxury touches, and doesn’t try to be more than what it is: a workhorse compact pickup. For someone needing a reliable truck for hauling gear, doing handyman work, transporting items, or simply driving with the occasional load — and who doesn’t care much about frills — the 2006 Ranger XL Regular Cab LB can be a practical choice. On the flip side, the compact cab can feel snug, especially for taller or larger occupants, and the ride quality is utilitarian. If you want a plush interior or powerful towing with modern comforts, this isn’t that truck. But if you value simplicity, ease of maintenance, and a straightforward work-oriented pickup, it does exactly what it’s intended to do. All in all, the 2006 Ford Ranger XL Regular Cab Long Bed is a bare-bones, dependable small pickup — a utilitarian workhorse that suits someone after practicality and function over flash or luxury.
