Rear Door and Jump Seats

[d_m234]

I want to buy a ranger with these features, but I have no idea what years to look for and if these were options or not.

Does any one know what years these came on / were offered on?

Thanks

My 04 2wd Edge has that setup:

Per http://www.therangerstation.com/resources/RangerHistory.htm:
"Not available in EV form was the Ford Ranger with extended SuperCab, which for 1998 offered dual rear-hinged back doors, a feature not available on any other contemporary compact pickup. Also for 1998, the Ranger's base engine grew from 2.3 liters to 2.5."

So 1998-present models. I really wish had those rear doors, it's a pain to need to move the seats forward and wedge things in and out from behind them. Glad I got the ext cab though.

I see, I didn't realize there was a resource page...


so the jump seats have been offered for a while too. Lots of good info there.

Yeah, the jump seats have been offered since the 80s, but your question was jump seats with rear doors (which is a huge convenience feature that I would opt for if given the opportunity). I wish I was able to find a Ranger with that set up and the manual transmission when I bought mine.

I was hoping the rear doors were offered on the 2nd gen rangers... But at least I can get the jumpseats.
