Here to show you more about the 2021 Ford Ranger is our Crest Ford team.

Tow, Haul, and Off-Road with the Ford Ranger

You can go seemingly anywhere in your Ford Ranger and bring all your gear and supplies with you with while you're at it. It comes powered by 2.7L EcoBoost® I-4 engine, which creates 270 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque.

With the power it generates, this engine helps the Ford Ranger tow up to 7,500 pounds. You can also load up its bed with a variety of items, with up to 51.8 cubic feet of cargo volume in the bed and maximum payload capacity of 1,905 pounds.

From driving in the forest to riding along the sandy shores, the Ranger is a pickup also designed to take you wherever you want to explore. That is because it offers an available 4X4 system as well as technology to help you safely tackle any terrain with available Trail Control™ and the Terrain Management System™.

Smooth, Efficient Driving Each Day

While perfectly at home out in the wild, the Ford Ranger also offers you a comfortable driving experience when traveling around the city and surrounding areas each day. Even if you aren't towing or transporting items in the bed of your truck, the Ranger is still ideal for your commute to work or various appointments.

Part of that is the efficiency its EcoBoost® engine provides. With its standard powertrain, the Ford Ranger gets an EPA-estimated 21 city/26 highway MPG, which beats out many other pickup trucks. It also is compact enough to handle well as you navigate your way around.

Inside, the cabin provides the space and features you want in your new vehicle. You'll be able to make great use of the 39.8 inches of headroom and 43.1 inches of legroom as you find your ideal seated position with the available 8-way power-adjustable driver's seat. This includes lumbar support, so you'll have a comfortable ride home after a hard day's work.

The Technology of the Ford Ranger

Speaking of its cabin features, the 2021 Ranger also has some extremely useful systems you can get within its cabin-one of those being the available SYNC® 3 infotainment system. With this, just plug in your phone and watch its apps appear on the 8-inch touchscreen. That way, you can access all your messages and even reply to them using your voice, as well as play whatever songs or podcasts you want to listen to as you drive.

Along your commute, the Ranger will help make sure you stay safe. That is because it features Ford Co-Pilot360™, which is a bundle of various driver-assistive systems. The BLIS® (Blind Spot Information System) is an available feature that can alert you whenever this is a car in your blind spot, so you know when it is clear to change lanes. Other available systems can help as you cruise along the highway and make sure you stay safely within your lane, as well as help you to maintain a safe distance from the car you are following.
