2002 ford ranger review this car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale. Most popular compact pickup packs most power in class. introductionford ranger is the overwhelming first choice among compact pickups. The 3. 0-liter v6 is rated at 154 horsepower and 180 pounds-feet of torque. The 4. 0-liter v6 develops 207 horsepower and 238 foot-pounds of torque. five-speed manual or five-speed automatic transmissions are offered with all three engines. the price-leading base edition is the xl regular cab styleside 12,270) with the 2. 3-liter engine, manual transmission, and two-wheel-drive. Opt for a supercab flareside xlt with 4wd, and the tab rises to $22,645. options include a new five-speed automatic transmission, a limited-slip rear differential, power windows and auxiliary rear doors for the supercab, all of which can load the bottom line by as much as $3,000. special models supply a surplus of attitude. The edge sports monochromatic color schemes that include a vivid chrome yellow. Edge comes in 4x2 and 4x4, but either way it rides at 4x4 height. Tow hooks, fog lights, and a 60-watt stereo with cd player all contribute to its attitude. The designers borrowed elements from the larger f-150 trucks and used them to strengthen the ranger's visual cues and streamline the package. the styleside design sweeps a continuous line from tip to tail, but the flareside version carves a recessed step into each side panel immediately behind the cab. The notch accentuates a rounded rear fender. Indentations in the bed support partitions to segment cargo. the edge focuses on a monochromatic treatment, with a power-dome hood bump that hints at a powerhouse beneath. An optional bed extender flips out and rests on the tailgate, like a u-shaped cage of tubular stainless steel. An optional 895) hard tonneau lid unfolds in separate front and rear sections, divided by a central vertical partition, with a lock added on the forward bin for security. interiorthe ranger's cab was revised for 2001. The most noteworthy improvement is a newfound quietness. Previous rangers consistently set the standard among compact trucks for spacious, comfortable accommodations and convenient features. The latest models build on that foundation with new seat designs clad in new fabrics, a revised instrument panel with tachometer supplied at all trim levels, and a revamped center pod for climate and audio systems with large easy-to-use rotary dials. the regular cab carries a bench seat that can squeeze three aboard. Two small side-facing jump seats may be added to the cab's rear bay; each folds down from the back wall. Two optional rear-hinged doors allow easy access to the supercab's rear quarters. the edge adds a textured rubber floor cover for wash-and-wear convenience. The bench splits 60/40, with side bolsters for outboard positions and a center armrest that folds down and contains a pop-top storage bin. Deluxe interior components also come with the edge, including air conditioning and an audio kit with in-dash six-cd swticher. With this engine, the ranger leaps off the line and runs quickly to speed. This produces closer ratios for better throttle response when accelerating, towing a trailer or driving off road. A high-gear lockout switch on the tip of the shift lever enables the driver to kick down a gear with the tap of a finger. a ranger supercab 4x4 with the 4. 0-liter v6 and optional five-speed automatic delivered good performance for passing, even at altitude. It could scamper up mountain grades or effortlessly pass a line of heavy freight haulers. the ranger handled bumps and curves with confident dexterity. A high ground clearance enables the ranger 4x4 to clear ruts and bumps easily. Base prices compare favorably with those of entry-level sedans, and many folks feel that a truck has more personality. A truck can be a versatile weekend workhorse and, especially when equipped with an extended cab and auxiliary rear doors, a competent family car the other five days out of the week. ford ranger remains a popular choice. One in three compact pickups sold last year was a ranger. More than 5 million rangers have been built since the first one rolled out in 1982. fresh exterior styling and innovative add-ons (like a cargo bed extender and the two-flap lockable tonneau lid) make america's best-selling compact truck even more attractive and appealing. In performance, the 207-horsepower v6 propels ranger to the head of its class. the edge adds attitude with a monochromatic exterior and an easy-to-clean interior. model lineupxl 12,270); xlt 14,405); edge 14,855). assembled intwin cities, minnesota; edison, new jersey. options as tested5-speed automatic transmission 1000); limited-slip rear axle 295); supercab with vinyl rear jump seats, power equipment group 405) includes power windows, locks, mirrors, remote keyless entry; step bar 295). model testededge supercab 4x4 21,020).
