If you’re in the market for a mid-size pickup that packs a lot of power into its impressive feature, the 2021 Ford Ranger is one to consider. It performs well and it’s a perfect in-the-middle size.

4_Truly_Impressive_Features_of_the_2021_Ford_Ranger_Conway_SC_Conway Ford

1. An Agile Engine

Despite its decently bulky size, the Ford Ranger is an agile-feeling truck. It has a 2.3-liter engine with 210 lb-ft of torque and 270 horsepower, giving it lots of prowess through its 10 speeds. The transmission is fast to respond during automatic gear changes and drivers feel the truck is responsive overall, too, making them feel in complete control every second of the day.

2. Trail-Ready

Like all good pickups, the Ford Ranger is ready for the trail. Switch on all-wheel-rive and you can go off-roading to your heart’s content, with superior traction that lets you crunch your way across rocky or loose terrain with ease. You can also equip the Ford Ranger with one of the many off-roading packages available in the 2021 model. Someone who frequently tackles tough terrain would benefit greatly from one of those.

One of the best features available as an upgrade is the Terrain Management System. This lets you set the terrain you’re driving on and the truck will adjust performance to match what’s under your wheels. The terrains are:

  • Sand
  • Grass
  • Snow
  • Mud
  • Gravel

3. Excellent Hauling Abilities

Whether you’re on or off the road, you can take a big mound of gear with you. The Ford Ranger can tow 7,500 pounds with ease, without compromising performance or responsiveness. If hauling large loads makes you nervous then there are also ways to ensure a superior drive even with a trailer piled with gear. One way you can do this is with the backup camera, which makes reversing safer. There’s also Trailer Sway Control, which leads to superior stability.

4. Driver Assistance

Those excellent safety features don’t just kick in when you have a load attached. There are driver assistance features available all the time, ensuring safety during your journeys. The only standard safety feature is automatic emergency braking that helps prevent collisions, but if you select a different trim there are other incredible features available, such as:

  • Automatic high beams
  • Rear cross-traffic alert
  • Blind spot monitoring


The latter feature is particularly impressive. It can account for an attached trailer and even factors in its length, so you have your blind spot in check no matter how much space around you is obscured. This ensures you’re always safe, and it brings excellent peace of mind to even the best drivers. There can never be too many safety features in a vehicle, making the Ford Ranger a valuable asset compared to vehicles with zero safety features.
