The Ford brand has a long history of producing trucks that will get you to the job site during the week and a new campsite at the weekend. The Ford Ranger is a mid-sized Ford truck with great power and capacity. If you live in the Alpena area and you're considering a new Ford Ranger, you can check out the information below.
The 2024 Ford Ranger underwent a complete redesign from last model year, including a revised front-end style and making the 2.3-liter four-cylinder turboengine standard.
Your new Ford Ranger is available in three different trim levels.
All three trim levels offer excellent value depending on your travel needs and goals around Gaylord. The updated styling of the new Ranger means that the higher trim levels are a bit heavier, though they also provide standard four-wheel drive. If you need a truck that can haul work materials and easily reach highway speeds, the XL may be a better choice for your requirements.
The new Ranger offers a turbocharged four-cylinder engine with a ten-speed automatic transmission. The four-cylinder engine provides 270 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque. Cheboygan shoppers can upgrade to a six-cylinder twin-turbocharged engine on higher trims. This engine generates 315 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque.
Thanks to the four full-sized doors of this sizable cab, Rogers City shoppers can comfortably carry five adults. There's also extra storage under the rear seat, making it possible to secure your tools and have friends and family simultaneously. Heated front seats are available on the higher trim levels of new Ford Rangers for 2024 and prior years.
Your miles per gallon will also significantly impact the truck you choose if it's your daily driver. New and recent Ford Rangers get an EPA-estimated 21 miles per gallon in town. You can expect up to 26 miles per gallon in rear-wheel drive on the highway. If you need to be in four-wheel drive, you can expect a slight drop in mileage. Of course, you'll also have terrific handling and a safe and easy way to handle harsh conditions.
Your new Ranger has a towing capacity of up to 7,500 pounds at any trim level. Depending on your driving conditions, your payload capacity can be up to 1,800 pounds if you're in rear wheel drive. When you need to get into a four-wheel drive, your payload capacity will drop slightly to 1,711 pounds.
Keeping your bed load stable will be simple, thanks to several tie-down points and a durable bed liner. Presque Isle shoppers can turn your new Ranger into a rolling job site in the higher trims thanks to the 110 outlet and multiple lighting options. Whether camping or earning, you'll have access to the power you need.
If you love having a sizable infotainment screen to monitor your vehicle, plan your routes, and don't want to buy a brand-new truck, you'll need to focus on higher trim levels. The 2023 Ford Ranger offers an eight-inch infotainment screen in the XLT and Lariat models. The new Ford Ranger features a 10-inch infotainment screen in the base model truck and a vertically oriented 12-inch screen in the XLT and Lariat Models.
The Ford brand's safety features in the base model of older Ford Rangers include a forward collision warning and automated emergency braking. In the XLT and Lariat models, you can add adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, and a rear cross-traffic alert. Improving the safety package on a new Ford Ranger is as simple as adding an affordable options package, offering crucial blind-spot monitoring and a rear cross-traffic alert.
