What wrench sizes should I carry in my Ranger?

What roadside repairs can really be done to these modern trucks? replacing a hose maybe or fixing a flat. What can be done if it won't start or runs erratically, you'll need to check various sensors etc to see which one is giving a bad signal, or has a bad connection. probably a voltmeter would be number one, then whatever size socket or whatever to replace whatever it is, plus a service manual to know what to check.
phone and towing insurance is likely the best bet.
That said, I drive VW Bugs and we used to carry all kinds of crap, and I have done various clutch cables and points and condensor swaps on the side of the road in the past,
but modern cars just don't break down like that. i do carry a box in my 10 ranger but it just makes me feel prepared for any zombie apocalypse... :)

I hear you K_W I think that everything is all metric now so go from there, yours is a lot older than mine so I can't really recommend what sizes. I carry a ratchet screwdriver with 5.5mm (7/32) and 7mm (9/32) for those little dash and trim screws and etc and a box with basic wrench set with some sockets. One good thing is the screws are phillips and not some wierd torx like my chevy of similar age af yours.
