Ford Ranger: The Versatile Midsize Pickup
The Ranger is Ford's midsize pickup, offering truck capability in a more manageable size than the full-size F-150.
The Ranger nameplate has a long history, from the compact trucks of the 1980s and 1990s to the modern global midsize pickup. The current Ranger is a tough, capable truck sold worldwide, with turbocharged power, available four-wheel drive, and a wide range of configurations.
It bridges the gap for buyers who want genuine pickup utility without the bulk and cost of a full-size truck. The high-performance, off-road Ranger Raptor adds serious desert-running capability.
Practical, capable, and right-sized, the Ranger has become a global success and a key part of Ford's truck lineup.
