Simply...FORD
Pals, this morning the new Ranger arrived at our local dealership.
Hope you like it; this is what I think:
PROS:
-beautifull new design, similar to the Amarok and Hilux, but in my opinion, a better looking truck
- interior comfort; seats are very comfortable, similar to a car, you can almost forget youre in a truck
- equipment; 2 airbags (the top of the line has 6), ABS, traction control, ESP, multifunction steering, alloy wheels etc etc etc
- engine: this was the 2.5 gasoline engine, which has 170 HP. Theses a 3.2 Turbodiesel Intercooler common rail, with 6 speed manual tranny with 207 HP.
- Built quality
- back seats room; again, you forgot youre in a pick up truck.
- Load capacity
BADS:
- front bumper made of pastic; I dont like that; a chromed metal bumper would be nice, like all ford pick ups
- seat fabric; altough the seats are extremely confortable, the fabric quality can and should be better. Offcourse theres a leather interior option
- some plastic fittings should be better
Here are some pics:
