New Ford Ranger for Sale Dade City FL

You don't have to choose the largest pickup on the lot to tow a trailer, haul building materials, or venture beyond the pavement. The 2027 Ford Ranger handles those jobs in a midsize package. Here's what you should know about the latest model year.

Key Takeaways:

• Ford makes few changes to the Ranger for the 2027 model year. (But a new model is coming!)
• Buyers can choose between 270- and 315-horsepower turbocharged engines.
• An integrated bed step, folding rear seats, and under-seat storage add everyday utility.

What's New With the Ranger This Year?

Current Ranger trim levels continue for another model year without an extensive redesign, but a Ranger Tremor appears to be an addition to the lineup later this year. It could bridge the gap between the standard lineup and the more-expensive Ranger Raptor for buyers interested in additional trail capability.

How Do the Ranger's Engines Differ?

The lineup features a standard 270-horsepower turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder that pairs with a 10-speed automatic. Buyers can select either rear- or four-wheel drive.

The available 2.7-liter twin-turbocharged V6 produces 315 horsepower, giving drivers another 45 horsepower over the standard engine. The V6 is offered exclusively with four-wheel drive. The result is a straightforward choice between the standard four-cylinder and a more powerful V6 with 4WD.

Can the Ranger Handle Your Trailer and Cargo?

Of course! Its max towing capacity reaches 7,500 pounds with the proper gear. Payload capacity tops out at 1,788 pounds.

The bed provides practical space for larger items as well. According to Car and Driver, a sheet of plywood fits between the wheel wells, eliminating the need to position it above them. An integrated bed step provides a convenient way to reach into the cargo area.

Ford also gives owners storage options inside the cab. Folding the rear seats creates room for gear that you don't want to leave in the bed, and compartments underneath the seats keep smaller belongings tucked away. When a trailer is attached, available Pro Trailer Backup Assist lets the driver use a knob on the center console to help direct the trailer while reversing.

What Tech and Comfort Features Do You Find in the Ranger?

The Ranger's adjustable steering wheel and seats allow drivers to tailor their seating position for comfort, whether it's a quick jaunt or a long haul.

Inside, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard. Available navigation provides real-time traffic updates, and an optional 10-speaker B&O system upgrades the truck's audio. USB ports and 12-volt outlets are positioned throughout the interior so passengers have several ways to keep their devices powered.

Which Ranger Gets the Best Gas Mileage?

The four-cylinder delivers the highest fuel economy in the lineup. Rear-wheel-drive models are rated at 23 mpg combined, while the FWD configuration earns 21 mpg combined. With the 315-horsepower V6, the Ranger gets 20 mpg combined.
