If I was buying new again, I’d buy another 3.2 Ranger auto.
If you get a turbo’d 2litre, make sure it has COSWORTH on the head

Yeah, as far as I can tell it's the same - no worse or better than any other ute but they keep a lot of outfits in work just with the shear number of Rangers on the road. A lot of it I think is down to servicing - if a lot more outfits ran OBDII datalogging I'm sure a lot of the issues could be picked up before failure. I know with mine we have found a lot of stuff that wouldn't have been picked up at service time but could have taken something critical out.
