New version Ford Ranger

Here is a dealer advertisement of the new Ford Ranger currently being sold in France and other European countries. Saw it in France, Greece, and Spain while on vacation October 2016. Here is the latest model on display. To me it strongly resembles the Ford Explorer View attachment 128 Sport Trac of Year 2007.

I think it resembles ugly. Just nothing pretty about that thing.

Yea. It's starting to look generic. Rangers used to be easy to spot coming down the road. Now you'll
have to read the badge to see what it is.

my 3,2 diesel in australia looks like your your just released model

But wevget the 6 speed auto with a 5cyl 3,2 diesel

Very few F150 or 250 over here wont fit in our parking spaces or garages about 2 feet two long ,the ranger is about as long as we can go

Ford should learn from the Mustang and Ranger to never fix what’s not broken.

Yeah. Now they've botched the Mustang up to where I wouldn't piss on one if it was on fire.

The bumpers turn me off. My '99 has chrome steel bumpers. I want steel, chrome doesn't matter. These look plastic. So l'll look elsewhere for another truck.

I have a '21 and am glad they never drilled those plastic bed tie-downs for the USA model. Sport Trac was a mess in a lot of ways and on an SUV body like you will find with the new Maverick is, based on the Ford Edge/Puma platform, same as the Ford Bronco Sport. Cars/trucks are all looking generic and most don't come with metal bumpers even if you get the "chrome" package. Mine does have gunmetal metal bumpers (XLT FX package) but a plastic skid plate that does look cheap, but easy to change when scratched.

The old little Rangers are just tiny and uncomfortable by today's standards and most people need one vehicle that can do everything and the 19- Ranger seems to do that well. I have had many former old Ranger owners ride in mine and be really impressed that they weren't in a tiny coffin-sized truck.
