22. 1994 Ford Ranger Splash

During the ’90s, Ford was into doing some pretty radical designs on their pickup trucks and the Ford Ranger Splash was one such truck. A cheap exterior paint design made the truck start prematurely fading early on. This caused a lot of frustration with new owners who were paying a premium for this truck. Then the power plant was underpowered at a time when Dodge was bringing on the new competition with the Dakota pickup truck. Overall, there were a lot of issues that just make the Splash a generally avoidable pickup truck.

If you have to get a Ford Ranger the years that ensued were a lot better in terms of quality. The Ranger itself is a standout track but the Splash just suffers from a few design flaws that make it a pain to live with.
