Video Review: 2020 Ford Ranger

The only midsize pickup Built Ford Tough, the 2020 Ford Ranger is ready for adventure and packed with driver-assist technologies to enable easier driving both on and off-road.

In this review, I get into the 2020 Ford Ranger in its Lariat 4×4 package and talk about the hits and misses for this little truck. The Ranger is somewhat unique in that it gets compared to larger, more capable pickups and yet isn’t one of them and shouldn’t be confused with one. Instead, it’s a small, capable pickup with a mixture of car and truck attributes. Check it out.

*Editorial note: As commentators have pointed out, I was incorrect in stating that the Lariat trim is the middle trim for the Ranger. It is the top trim.
