Fast Fun Ride

Very happy with my purchase but did have a few gripes: Driver side floor got wet due to an AC issue but it was fully covered under warranty. Sound insulation is pretty light in the doors and roof so rain is loud! The radiator fan is also quite loud but thankfully it doesn’t run much. All in all a great value. Engine power is excellent (as is gas mileage) and the truck is a lot of fun in sport mode! Looks good too!

No stability control

My partner in my business just had a recent crash in my 2020 ford ranger super crew cab . Very disappointed it didn’t do a thing as far as handling wet asphalt and hydroplaning no brakes engaged lost complete control of vehicle which is supposed to have stability control . It says in the book it’s supposed to brake itself on correct tires to prevent skidding hydroplaning etc . The ranger did not preform right as far as stability control it is either just not functioning like it should be or not at all. I would like Ford to take a look into this

Have been impressed!

Purchased the new 2020 Ford Ranger in November, 2020 and have been very surprised ever since! Was waiting for the Ranger to be provided with a V-6 but when I drove the 2020 I was shocked to find the 2.3 liter four had much more power and pick-up than my 1999 Ranger with a 4.0 liter V-6. Since I have towed a trailer with no problem and have been pleased with the 25+ MPG I get with the new truck. The Lariat is a good looking truck and gets me all of the benefits of a truck while maxing out MPG and ride comfort. The only negatives I can identify are the smaller 5-foot bed on the Crew-Cab, but I work around that with little problem. The other is comments on the stiff ride and I purchased a 4X4 so the ride is going to be a little stiff, but still refined on a smooth road. I owned a 1999 Ranger 4X4 for 22 years and it was a little stiff riding, but I never had any serious problems with the truck in 22 years of ownership and it still performed like new after all those years! I am a fan of this great truck!

I finally got a truck

Ive been wanting a truck for some time and boy did I get a beauty. Lariat edition of the Ford Ranger. The seating is comfortable and so far I have getting 26.5 miles per gallon, ABOVE the rating! Looking forward to reviewing it even more after my cross county drive in August to the national parks back west. P.S. This is my first Ford ever and at first was hesitant but so far my fears are calmed.

Awesome truck!!

This truck is great new vehicle that I plan to enjoy for years to come. It will meet and exceed all the needs I require in a truck. It looks great and I love the color!

Perfect for the Pacific Northwest@

The Roush Ranger truck is well suited to most driving conditions in the Pacific Northwest. With the Ford Performance pack, tuned for pulling a trailer, it meets all of my needs! Harris Ford Lincoln did a great job of meeting all of my requirements! Larry Parker is the guy! Every dealership needs a Larry Parker!

Retirement here we come

We purchased a truck to pull a travel trailer and fit in our garage. The truck will pull up to 7500 lbs dry weight and has off-capability.

Impressive performance for a smaller truck

Excellent handling, comfortable seats, really roomy cab. Traded in my F-150 because we need garage space, but this truck feels substantial and amazingly powerful. After being accustomed to the F-150, I worried about the smaller truck feeling “tiny.” Pleasantly surprised by this vehicle. Drives very much like our Ford Edge. If you don’t need the larger bed for hauling, the Ranger delivers on all fronts. We have the super crew cab and love that decision despite the shorter bed.
