The starter on my Ford Ranger pickup died. I looked on the internet and found a wide range of replacements. The prices ranged from $38 to about $150.. The truck is old and will be replaced soon, so I ordered the cheapest. There were two places that had that price. One was in Calif. and from what I could tell tell the other was in Eastern Tenn. Surprise the place in Tenn. was a vendor thru Walmart. Since I am on East Coast, I ordered from Walmart. Another surprise, the tracking started for place in Mass. And the final surprise....
It was brand new manufactured in China.

It arrived late today and I put it on after dinner. It works fine. At that price I was expecting a rebuilt starter.
