A Little More Chatter....

Ford says the " Ranger is the F-150 of the world ," a boast that both ties the midsize pickup to the larger, bestselling F-150 and to its global roots of late. It also puts a positive spin on the previous-generation model, which was sent here a few years after it went on sale in the rest of the world, making it both an awkward transplant and old upon arrival.

A decade had passed since Ford sunset the Ranger here (when it was still a compact truck), and this was the pickup that was supposed to resurrect the Ranger name in America? Well, here we are again: Ford has once again given the rest of the world a new Ranger before its home market, though it tightened up the timeline so that Americans are only waiting about two years for the new one.

We figure most American customers aren't particularly interested in the "F-150 of the world," and are instead hoping for the Ranger of the U.S.A. Our Ranger.

One worthy of filling the void of all those Ranger-less years we needed to endure—and which gave competitors that stuck it out in the segment a leg up, namely the Toyota Tacoma. One worthy of the "Built Ford Tough" mantra. The new 2024 Ford Ranger still holds ties to the versions sold in Australia, Thailand, Europe, and elsewhere, but it's a much better focused rig for our market than the Ranger sold here from 2019 to 2023.

is it going to be yours...
