Ranger emphasizes safety and security for the 2007 model year, with Ford’s Personal Safety System, tire pressure monitoring system and SecuriLock passive anti-theft system all as included as standard equipment. The Personal Safety System includes a front-passenger sensing system and dual-stage driver and front-passenger air bags. The tire pressure monitoring system uses sensors mounted on each of the wheels except the spare to monitor air pressure.

Ranger is a five-time winner in the compact truck category of R.L. Polk & Co.’s Automotive Loyalty Awards.

Ranger is built in St. Paul, Minn., at the Twin Cities Assembly Plant.

Design and Equipment

The 2007 Ranger is available in XL, STX, XLT, SPORT, FX4 Off-Road and FX4 Level II trims, in regular-cab and in two- and four-door SuperCab configurations. A 7-foot box option is available on XL and XLT regular-cab models. Two new 16-inch aluminum wheels are available across most of the 2007 Ranger lineup.

Three striking new colors help draw attention to key exterior design elements that include aggressive lower valance and power-dome hood structures and a nostril grille: Pueblo Gold Clearcoat, Vista Blue Clearcoat Metallic and the reintroduction of Screaming Yellow.

The sporty and functional interior features seats with sculpted bolsters and seat backs for comfort and support. Also available are sport bucket seats, leather-trimmed seating surfaces and a leather-trimmed steering wheel.

Comprehensive packages allow customers to order a Ranger that fits their needs — from the FX4 Level II Package with skid plates, bold aluminum wheels and Bilstein shocks to an earth-shaking, 510-watt audio system with the TREMOR Package.

Shortly after the 2007 model-year launch, all audio systems except the base AM/FM receiver will be equipped with an auxiliary audio input jack as standard. In addition, MP3 compatibility is added to the single-disc CD audio system. SIRIUS Satellite Radio is available on STX, XLT, Sport and all FX4 models.

Powertrain and Chassis

Ranger offers three engine choices: a 2.3-liter, inline four-cylinder (I-4) and two V-6 engines.

The 2.3-liter, dual-overhead-cam I-4 produces 143 horsepower at 5,250 rpm and 154 pound-feet of torque at 3,750 rpm. This engine offers the highest fuel economy of any pickup in the market, delivering 24 miles per gallon in the city and 29 mpg on the highway. It’s now the standard engine for STX 4x2 regular cab and STX 4x2 two-door SuperCab, in addition to XL and XLT two-door SuperCab 4x2 versions.

Ranger’s 3.0-liter, overhead-valve V-6 engine produces 148 horsepower at 4,900 rpm and 180 pound-feet of torque at 3,950 rpm. The larger, 4.0-liter, single-overhead-cam V-6 produces 207 horsepower at 5,250 rpm and 238 pound-feet of torque at 3,000 rpm. All three engines are equipped with a five-speed manual transmission and are available with a five-speed automatic transmission.

Four-wheel drive and comprehensive chassis upgrades are available for off-road use.
