I am about to buy a 1994 Ranger from a dealer and it currently does not have remote key fobs. The dealer checked and said that they were not available until 1995. Can someone verify this for me? Thanks.

Only 206K miles so it is just getting broken in.

My credo
In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.
That probably didn't start until they switched the ECM to OBD2 architecture in 96. That's when electronics started getting fancy in Rangers.

A quick look through the sales brochures shows remote keyless entry as an option as early as the 93

That's cool. I'm glad my 93 doesn't have that.

I just looked in the original owner's manual which feels like it was written on papyrus and there is no mention of remote keyless entry.
