New Ford Ranger

I loved the truck. The back seat could be a little roomier but other than that just what I was looking for in a truck.

2021 Ford Ranger Tremor - exceeding expectations

I recently purchased my 2021 Ford Ranger Tremor from Five Star. Ford and was a great experience. Though I’ve only had the truck for less than a week, I am very pleased with the purchase and cannot speak to long term reliability. If you are thinking about a Tremor and haven’t seen one in person, do it! The truck drives very well on road, handling the bumps, not bouncing you all over the place. The Tremor interior is very comfortable and the seats are very nice. The interior is surprisingly quiet and the 32” tires on the road are well mannered. The technology and safety features are very impressive. The quality of the truck has exceeded my expectations and is well built. There are reviews online criticizing the Ranger for a dated interior. I don’t find this compliant valid at any trim. This is a truck, not a Bentley. With that being said everything is well placed and neutral. The dash is not wood or a fancy material other than leather and that is fine for me. Unlike other brands, the interior is not passé. Lots of bells and whistles and the adaptive cruise control functions extremely well and performs as flawlessly as a high end German car. Nice job Ford. When shopping, I considered all trims levels and packages and landed on the Lariat. It was really a tough choice as all trim levels and packages have a lot to offer, making the final decision for options challenging. The window sticker lists the Tremor fuel economy is rated at 19/19, but based on experience so far, I suspect the rating is lower than will be experienced in real world. At this point I am seeing between 21-22mpg. I suspect that will improve as well upon break in. Overall, quite impressed so far and do not have any regrets.

Good Truck

This truck has more than enough power and is easy on fuel. Truck runs great and rides decent. Only issue is the braking. The brakes seem sponge and the truck dives when braking. Reading around on the web, this seems to be a common issue. Exterior of the truck looks awesome and interior is basic, but okay. Wish the factory leveling kit wasn't so highly over priced as well as dealer labor

Great styling and comfortable to drive.

Great styling and comfortable to drive. Enjoy the technology features and consider the safety to be excellent. Seating is very comfortable and easy to adjust. Window vision is good.

Just a few days old

So far we are very happy with our purchase, just have to get used to the new tech as the vehicle we had was a 99, so far so good.

Great first impression

Other than being smaller and less comfortable for my dog-(100 pound wood who liked to ride in the middle of my F-150 looking out the windshield) it is a very nice ride. The front is very comfortable, works well with my iPhone connected, is zippy when I hit the gas and is a good looking vehicle. The back has some hidden storage but is small for taller passengers, but my kids will fit well at 5’6”. I am amazed by the 7400 pound towing capacity and will no doubt use this with the family camper. So far, I like it.

So far a great small truck

I down sized from a 2018 F150, very impressed with this Rangers 4x4 system works well I'm currently working in the high country of Colorado. The sync 3 and app are outstanding. The 2.3 turbo 4 has amazing power. So far no complaints

Great truck!

Very good value for the price. Beats the F-150 in all the measurables that matter. Love the looks and the way it handles. More than I expected.
