Look on almost any list of the most popular used trucks, and you will find a used Ford Ranger as one of the best sellers year after year. In fact, the Ford Ranger is one of the best selling small pickup trucks ever manufactured and can be found all over the country in rural areas, small towns and large cities. Its small size is popular among people who occasionally need to haul small loads or tow smaller trailers, but also want a vehicle that offers good fuel economy. The Ford Ranger comes with three different engine choices: 2.3 liter, 4-cylinder motor and a choice of either a 3.0 liter or 4.0 liter V6 engine. Although the 4.0 V6 is obviously the strongest of the bunch, the 2.3 liter, 4-cylinder is by far the most popular choice for the small truck because of the great fuel economy it offers and surprisingly responsive performance. For those that prefer diesel engines, you can also find a 2.5 liter or 3.0 liter diesel fueled Ranger. Like all other Ford trucks, the Ranger comes in several different trim options, which range from the least expensive XLS trim to the XLT Limited trim which offers all of the bells and whistles. Even thought the Ranger is a smaller pickup truck, it comes in 3 different cab styles. In addition to the traditional regular cab, the ranger can be found in an extended cab version as well as a 4-door crew cab style. The Ranger has been a mainstay small pickup truck for many years and continues to evolve and be relevant even as newer and trendier pickup trucks emerge. Solid engineering, good performance and reliability have a made the Ford Ranger a small pickup truck that Americans trust.
