The all-new 2019 Ford Ranger is coming soon, and promises class-leading capabilities for drivers who want a truck that can get the job done. The impressive new Ford truck starts with a powerful engine, the 2.3 liter EcoBoost® that boasts 310 lb.-ft. of torque, higher than any other midsize pickups with gas engines. That power pairs with a 10-speed transmission, exclusive to its class, which gives drivers control over the truck’s capabilities and helps create a great driving experience.
In addition to class-leading torque, the 2019 Ford Ranger also leads the way when it comes to payload and towing. A maximum payload of 1,860 pounds means drivers can literally haul nearly a ton, whether it’s outdoor gear, work equipment, firewood, or more. As far as what you can bring behind you, the towing capabilities are even more impressive. A best-in-class towing capacity of 7,500 pounds will make it easy for drivers to get boats, campers, and trailers wherever they need to go.
We’ve already talked about the intense testing the 2019 Ford Ranger has undergone to ensure its toughness, and the incredible capabilities make a perfect match with the truck’s proven endurance. Ford Ranger chief engineer Rick Bolt describes the truck by saying “think of [Ford] Ranger as the biggest and most capable backpack for your gear.”
Here at your Shelbyville Ford dealership, we’re pretty excited about this new “backpack,” which begins production this year for arrival in early 2019. We know that any Ford truck is something special, and we’re thrilled to be adding the all-new Ford Ranger to the line-up alongside old favorites like the Ford F-150. Louisville area drivers don’t have long to wait before the 2019 Ford Ranger, and its class-leading abilities, arrives at O’Brien Ford of Shelbyville.
