It will fly when the 2.7 engine is available.

[@scottfarrar3441]

Items you missed --> REAR SEAT Folds FLAT (nice for Dogs...and Coolers, etc). BED (Wheel Wells) is WIDER...Plywood Sheets now fit between them. Also, the CABIN SOUND is "quieter" due to the new "Sound Barrier" auto-glass being used in the 2024 Ranger. The RIDE is better due to the additional 2" WIDTH and additional 2" WHEEL BASE...plus the placement of the REAR SHOCKS on the outer portion of the Frame.

[@tools4dummies]

ford needs to put the manual transmission from the broncco into the ranger

[@robertkeller8064]

Better? Yes. But at what price? I will stick with my 2019 XLT FX4. It does what I need it to do.

[@dimitrioszabarelos5168]

Interior dimensions virtually the same. Check out the specs. That being said, I'll probably go to the 2.7 l Ranger next year. Love that engine.

[@PapioRed]

Drop in the hybrid setup from the Lincoln Nautilis and you have a winner. Hopefully the PHEV makes it to the US.

[@LebronPhoto1]

It’s confusing when you compare the 2024 Lariat with the previous model XLT because some of the items being pointed out in the new one (push button start for example) was available in the previous Lariat model.

[@ghilliemanreviews]

My only complaint for the new one is when the 2019-2023 model came out they bragged the steel front bumper. They went away from that. Raptors have one, put it on the normal one

[@slmjake]

Sorry, my 2004 Ranger has a 6 foot bed. The new ones have wheelbarrow handles in the tail lights, and mine is paid for.

[@jimmycline4778]

My 2023 Chevy Colorado Trail Boss is also paid for and I only have 3k miles on it!

[@georgesawtooth2214]

The older model is still pretty nice. As for mid-trucks my personal preference is the Nissan Frontier. That was actually a funny comment: keeping your foot warm from the exhaust pipe!

[@richman555]

Not sure this will surpass the Tacoma in sales however this generation of Ranger will compete much better.

[@danielrn133]

It won't. Tacoma is Toyotas F-150. However Ranger is really good.

[@kennetho5393]

I don't think Ford has the capacity to exceed the Tacoma. The Ranger is only built at one plant in Michigan and shares production capacity with the Bronco. The Tacoma has full production at a plant in Mexico and I think can be built with the Tundra in San Antonio if needed.

[@chrispnw2547]

The market is so different these day. In many markets in the U.S. the Tacoma is being discounted by dealers and NO additional sticker. I think/hope the Ranger grows in market share as the F150 has gotten more expensive and is a bit too large for many.

[@rileypettit4832]

Would love to own either if i has the money. I say the old one for me would be more worth it. Love both in extior design, however the interior of the older one is nicer due to the smaller screen i hate big screens and that every new vehicle is over the top with tech. The old one being a little smaller wouldnt bother me as i want a smaller truck anyways. For the price and size of the new one you might as well buy an f150

[@mojorisin7317]

The new Ranger is way better looking. I don't care for the new extended vertical center stack screen. Half that size with some physical buttons and controls for the hvac would have sufficed. I love the addition of the 2.7 especially if you tow and haul cargo and people often. The biggest issue is the scandalous asking price 😮 ✌🏽🇺🇲

[@pfwww12]

Broo major Upgrade!!!!! Trade in your older Rangers. The height the tires the deisgn the size all upgraded wow!

[@shawnevans26]

I like the old ranger! When it came I thought it reminded me of my 1997 f-150. But the newest is still alright. P.S. plus I like that the 2019-2022 ford ranger is thinner.

[@xisotopex]

what engine does the last generation ranger come with?

[@secpac58chichi]

And will it rack up the dozen recalls the hybird Maverick has ?

[@georgedoolittle9015]

For the price I'd go full size but it's definitely game on for mid-size pickup truck wars. Winner going away with it: Ford Mavericks soon to be the best selling truck and possibly vehicle ever. Ford Maverick has a hybrid option as well.

[@jimmycline4778]

The new Colorado has rear Ac heater vents, the new Ranger does not!

[@JamesThomas-dn6ee]

Who gives a shit lol

[@eddierodriguez3472]

@@JamesThomas-dn6ee I do! So do many people in the South. Summer’s are brutal down here. I’m a 2004 Toyota Tacoma owner looking to upgrade to a GMC Canyon AT4 which has the rear vents.

[@JamesThomas-dn6ee]

@eddierodriguez3472 the vehicles are not that big the front vents will cool the whole vehicle no issue

[@planoman0935]

I think they both look good! The only design que I qustion is the antenna...Why a sharkfin and a anntenna sticking up? I expet once they get production ramped up the new Ranger will do quite nicely and give Tacoma a run for top selling mid sized truck.

[@PiperMac55]

Looks like the F150 that’s attractive…I liked the ‘70s where it was just different trim packages…like my 79 F150 4 speed/ 4x4 custom trim in my barn

[@NoNameFish247]

So glad sun roofs are going away. They are so dumb and add complexity and leak points. Option it if you want it, but not me…

[@SamCarLegion]

Why??

[@dhmig88]

The 2024 Ranger looks great, I prefer the more square front end, it has a more classic truck look.👍🏼

[@ChristopherS-qv8br]

They should just make an extended cab and a longer bed,not much room for adults in rear anyway. Good looking truck but way over priced.

[@jimmycline4778]

LOL I have a new Chevy Colorado Trail Boss, these are midsize trucks, I’m 5’9 and have plenty of room, this guys 6’2 and still has good room, are you 7 ft, I use to ride in the back of my new 02 Silverado extended cab that I still own and my Colorado is way way more roomier, way better to have a very roomy rear seat than a longer bed that won’t hardly get used,,it blows my mind when people complain how small the rear seats are, they aren’t small at all! These are big midsize trucks, compare these trucks to midsize S10s and 80s 90s Rangers!

[@wickedmainah950]

I just bought a new ranger, I could comfortably sit in back at 6 ft

[@jordanfrangquist1474]

Upgrade now to increase sales both will get you from point A to B in the same time and manner

[@TREVORJB101]

The new Ranger may be better in every way, except looks, in my opinion. I prefer the older, more sleek version of Ranger.

[@SamCarLegion]

Interesting

[@nokoolaid]

I think they wanted it to look more like the F150.

[@SlingKing2015]

After having Explorers among our fleet rigs, and all the problems that have come with them, I wouldn't buy a cheaper Ford. 🤷‍♂️

As long as Ford keeps focusing on technology over reliability they will not get my business.

[@LightWeNeed]

Ok

[@LightWeNeed]

[@kerplunk38880]

​​⁠Glad you agree. Even their CEO says their quality is crap

[@nokoolaid]

That model is 50K US before any dealer convenience fees where I live. It seems like a lot for what it is. While they are two totally different classes of vehicles, my challenger RT SP 1320 was cheaper, but it's a hell of a lot more fun than a 4 door car with an open trunk. I think vehicle manufacturers are starting to run into the limits of their greed. Inventory is piling up and they don't understand why.

[@barbmelle3136]

The new one is a whole lot bigger than the original, the bed is shorter and the price tag is in the $45,000 range. Why did ford abandon the 1990's version that was a great truck, and sold like crazy because they were affordable?

[@housepianist]

Competition. If they start making larger mid-size trucks (Tacoma’s, Xterra, Canyon, etc) with more features and amenities, Ford is bound to do the same. However, with the popularity of the F150, which was selling like crazy every year, Ford just decided to put their resources in that so the Ranger just languished and discontinued for a time.

[@seruresto1386]

EPA regulations are largely responsible in USA. Vehicles get judged on different standards based on wheelbase and size. I've read that in order for a truck the size of the old Ranger to meet modern regulations, it would have to be capable of getting something like 45-50mpg. Which of course isn't possible with the tech we have.

[@barbmelle3136]

@@seruresto1386 Reading between the lines, the compact truck market has been screwed up by the bureaucrats who were never voted into office and have no accountability, but tax paying citizens get to suffer. Sounds about right. .

[@ItsAlive111]

They still make the small 1990 Ranger, it’s now called the Maverick. And you’re right is sells like crazy!

[@barbmelle3136]

@@ItsAlive111 Thanks for the suggestion. I am struggling with that because the Maverick only have a 4-1/2 foot bed (and no frame) the old Rangers were 6 foot for the short and 7 foot for the long, and they had frames. I would however, love to have a 1972 Maverick Grabber coupe 😁

[@jasonbailey1166]

If he compared 23 lariat to the 24 lariat there would be a lot less comparison… he’s just trying to sell the new 24’s … total ford BS

[@user-jv2ol1yq9w]

The ridgeline is an accord with a bed and a max towing rating of 5k. The full frame Ranger can tow 7500 lbs. for those who actually use a truck for truck reasons towing and the tech, the Ranger is a home run.

Really , ,thats your reason not to buy the ranger ? LOL. When your driving your ranger , you doing it from the back seat ?? lol

Because Ford is #1 in Truck sales. Ford makes mostly better looking trucks, they usually offer more technology than the competition, usually more power than the competition as well. They also fair better in accidents.

Very nice, Ford did a nice job on the new version. Light years ahead of the ancient technology found in its competitors.

No long bed. Crew cab only. Huge disapointment. Annoying that midsize trucks are just mall crawlers now. Wide enough for a 4x8 sheet in the bed is pretty nice tho
