The Ford Ranger Journey
The Ford Ranger name was introduced back in 1983 as the designation for all Ford Pickup trucks. Sold in many forms and markets over the years, the Ranger is currently one of the best-selling Pickups in the UK. Choice, powerful drivetrains and class-leading towing capabilities sit alongside a high-quality build with the latest models showcasing the latest technology and equipment levels beautifully. If you’re in the market for a Pickup, a used Ford Ranger should be on your shortlist.
Why should I choose a used Ford Ranger?
Capabilities. The Ford Ranger is a best seller for good reason, a wide selection of models – choose from a Regular, Super or Double Cab are teamed with Ford’s legendary intelligent all-wheel-drive system and configurable modes, ideal for tackling tricky terrain. All these models sit alongside the stunning Raptor and latest EcoBlue diesel engines with Ford introducing an all-new Ranger in 2022 featuring the highly acclaimed 3.0 twin-turbo V6 EcoBoost petrol engine. Complementing the engine options are a perfectly weighted 6-speed manual gearbox or 10 speed automatic, both perform exceptionally well and contribute towards the impressive 3,500kg braked towing capability quoted on all used Ford Ranger models.
What do I need to look for?
The Ranger excels on all fronts, with intelligent all-wheel-drive (complete with low range and on some models dedicated driving modes) sitting alongside a high standard specification and selection of upgrades. Every used Ford Ranger at FOW is unique from its optional equipment list and engine to the gearbox and configuration.
One of the most popular options on a Ranger is a lockable load box hard top canopy. Complementing this is a selection of factory upgrades including Ford’s optional Premium Pack (adaptive cruise control, park assist, locking rear differential (makes a huge difference when tackling steep terrain), automatic high beam assist and collision mitigation with driver alert system), Raptor Dress Up Pack (power tonneau cover and roll over bar), Raptor Splash Decal Pack, ICE Feature Pack (SYNC 3 Media system with Apple CarPlay, FordPass Connect, 6 speaker audio system and satellite navigation) and the Off-Road, Parking and Driver Assistance Packs – each taking elements from the Premium Pack).
