The 2012 Ford Ranger is America’s Premier Compact Pickup
Truck enthusiasts in the northern Illinois area should be thrilled with the release of the 2012 Ford Ranger in Oswego, Naperville, Montgomery, and Aurora. With the current state of the economy and increasing gas prices, truck-lovers may be a little weary of purchasing a full-sized pickup. With the 2012 Ranger, Ford has provided truck drivers around the country with a more compact, long-lasting truck that won’t put such a dent in your wallet. Although it is classified as a compact truck the Ford Ranger is very comparable in size to the F150. The design for this great pickup is the culmination of four years of work by nearly 500 engineers around the world, and all this hard work and dedication shows in the final product.
Designing the 2012 Ford Ranger
The restructured 2012 Ford Ranger is taller, longer, and wider than earlier models. This increased size has unquestionably led to additional towing capability, giving this year’s Ranger a class-leading 7,400-pound capacity. The interior has also been dramatically improved, with a variety of technological upgrades providing drivers with a more enjoyable ride. With Bluetooth capability, USB ports, iPod integration, and the ability to command all of these functions by voice, this compact pickup is truly up to speed in the 21st century.
Price and Powertrain Features
One of the best things about the 2012 Ford Ranger is that it won’t put a huge dent in your pocketbook. This year’s model starts just under $20,000 for the 2.5L single cab, manual transmission trim package. The new Ranger also offers 4 x 4 and 4 x 2 drivetrains, an automatic or manual transmission, and three new engine choices.
