Designing the Ranger you asked for

Pick-up drivers from all around the globe told us what they wanted in a vehicle before we started designing the Ford Ranger. We asked customers what they liked, what they didn’t and what we could improve. Armed with thousands of hours of research, our team then got to work on a vehicle that could meet every driver’s need.
