We bought a 2021 XLT with the tow package after breaking down in Oregon on vacation. Needed a truck to tow a 18ft trailer to California. Imagine my surprise that this met my need! Awesome tow capacity with 3500 lb trailer. Handled some gnarly inclines and 6-7% downhill grades with ease in tow mode. 5/5 stars!! Great pickup and power.

I love the design, but the build quality is poor..

Overall experience... First, I really like the design of my new truck... but the build quality has issues.. When I purchased the truck it was in transit (on a train) and was expected to be delivered within a week. When the truck arrived at the dealer it was in very rough shape after its unprotected trip. When I took delivery the next day, I noticed the new truck had already been driven 27 miles. So, not getting an answer for how a new vehicle had miles, I called the assembly plant for an answer. No other contacts including the Korum Ford dealership nor the national Customer Service could provide a clear explaination for the excessive miles. When I was transfered to the assembly plant, I was greeted by a guard that would not connect me to anyone including any public information person. She was rude and simply disconnected the call. My truck was delivered with a scratched (wiped with abrasive) Sync screen, overspray and outward dent on right front quarter panel, overfilled brake master cylinder reservoir (brake fluid on painted surfaces), floor mats that don't fit, misaligned tail gate (possibly bent bed opening), passenger seat wire harness routing problem (strain and flattened conductors caused by forward movement of seat), front wheel alignment problem (caster not allowing front wheel clearance, drivers side) and dimpled hood. In addition, the Ford Pass app wouldn't authenticate my VIN because another user was already associated with the truck. In my case, this assembly plant did not produce a quality finished product. I had no issue paying a very high MSRP for a new vehicle that should never have problems... I had to buy sight unseen due to high demand and little availability. This was a very disappointing experience. I paid top dollar for a used truck with manufacture defects. Just try to get a Ford dealer to do warranty work. If your lucky, they might fix the original issue, but cost you greaf and possibly more damage through the repair process. My experience with Ford, their dealers and their product will certainly cause me to go to the competition with my dollars in the future. They are always glad to take your money but then turn their back when an issue arrises. Through this experience I have met / talked with many quality people that empathize with these issues. If I could recommend anything it would be that Ford empower and promote excellence and get rid of dead weight. The dealer wants to blame all the problems on Ford, but my issues have not been corrected at this time. You may feel confident after hours of product research... the difference is in dealing with people and an organization you can trust with your hard earned money. My wife has since purchased a beautiful, perfectly built, fuel efficient Subaru (also expensive). She absolutely loves her car and had a great buying experience. I have attempted to get the Warranty repairs done at two separate local dealers with no luck. Both attempts were very time consuming. Ford is aware of all the problems but has so far, been nonresponsive.

Oh I am an 72 year old woman that always wanted a neat pickup. Well I found it in my little red Ranger. Some tell me I should move up to a F150 but I say no way. I love the chrome rims and I keep them clean, so when the sun hits them. The F150 guys can't seem to stay on the road. My Ranger is bright red, 4x4 and loves to play in the snow! What a great truck! I love it... really love giving someone a run for their money off those red lights. Its got pick up! Still love the Ranger it has over 47000 miles on it now. Looking to get a small camping trailer to pull with it. Still ladies you want some fun but yet something to haul things, get a Ranger its the best!

I traded a very nice F150 for the Ranger. I just didn’t need a 150 size truck any longer. Mine is a Super Crew Sport in Cactus Grey. The power is impressive. Much quicker than the 5.0 150. As with other, EcoBoosts the power comes on smoothly and never stops. Very quick. Just like my wife’s Lincoln MKX 2.7 EcoBoost, which is a rocket. It is comfortable, nice features and handles great. I have 5k miles with zero issues. It averages about 23.5 MPG in combined driving. I’ve seen 29 on the freeway. I highly recommend it.
