Ford Ranger Review Summary
"Latest Rangers serve up bolder, more aggressive styling."
"The engine (4.0-liter) felt powerful at all times and even sporty."
"Ranger team revised the suspension to quell the previous truck's somewhat wallowy ride and herky-jerky handling."
"Transmission will shift hard and fast when instructed by a heavy right foot."
What reviewers liked least about the Ford Ranger:
"Disappointingly, the 4-liter V6 sounded strained doing its brisk business."
"Vinyl floor may look cool but we noted it does become slippery when wet."
"Brake pedal feels too stiff but stopping distances are OK."
"The jump seats are best left to kids."
Ford Ranger Comparisons:
"Among compact pickups, it's still the pick of the pack."
"New Ranger edge is positioned between the XL and XLT and aimed at younger buyer."
Best one-liners about the Ford Ranger:
"Overall, we found the new styling to be, well, stylin'"
"Edge model I drove was loaded with enough gauges to satisfy a classic sports-car buff."
