2020 Ranger: Your Off-Road Wonder

Many daredevil drivers want to explore the off-road terrain of the Piedmont region in their 2020 Ranger pickup trucks. For the best experience, add the available FX4 Off-Road Package to yours. Adapt to any landscape that comes your way with the Terrain Management System™ included in the package.

You can choose between four terrain modes—Normal, Grass/Gravel/Snow, Mud/Ruts, or Sand—to find traction on even the least tamable surfaces. An electronic-locking rear differential, when activated, can help you keep your grip as well.

What sounds better than cruise control for the trails? Try the available Trail Control™ on for size and see how easy driving is when steering is your only concern!  

How Much Can the Ford Ranger Tow?

The Ford Ranger is just the friend you want in a pinch. Whether you’re towing the family boat out to the lake or tackling that home repair project, this pickup will help see you through.

The Ranger can tow up to 7,500 pounds when properly equipped. The 2.3L EcoBoost® 4-cylinder engine delivers 310 lb-ft of torque—just what you need to get moving from a stop with a heavy trailer in tow. Move that boat or your other favorite toys for the endless weekend!

With a payload of up to 1,860 pounds, the Ranger makes itself useful in other ways too. You can load up that truck bed with everything you need on the worksite to get the job done right.

In Sync with the Road: Safety Features

When you’re driving a truck, safety is key—especially when you have a trailer in tow. The 2020 Ranger is equipped with the driver-assistance features you need via the Ford Co-Pilot360™ suite.

The available BLIS® (Blind Spot Information System) with Trailer Coverage is one of its most noteworthy features. When you need to change lanes in busy highway traffic, this feature can warn you of vehicles detected in your blind spots or alongside your trailer, if you have one hitched.

For those longer drives, you’ll want to set your pace for the adventure ahead. Available Adaptive Cruise Control lets you set a cruising speed and distance from the car in front of you. You’ll slow automatically as needed to keep you safely at your preset parameters!
