Curious about the Ford Ranger and how it compares to rivals like the Chevy Colorado? In the world of midsize trucks, some of the biggest keys to success are being able to pack a lot of towing and hauling power into a relatively small frame that allows drivers to get around Miami, FL with their gear without taking up too much space. The Ford Ranger has plenty of power to spare, and it offers a robust tech roster to round out your experience behind the wheel. Take a look at how the Ford Ranger stacks up against the Chevy Colorado to see how the Ranger excels.

What is the Ford Ranger?

The Ford Ranger is a midsize pickup truck that offers the ideal blend of power and maneuverability for your journeys around the Hialeah, FL area. The 2024 Ford Ranger marks the beginning of the fifth Ford Ranger generation, so it brings with it a host of updates, upgrades, and exciting new features to make it stand out in the crowd. The Chevy Colorado started its third generation for the 2023 model year, so the new Ford Ranger is a little fresher.

If you're eager to find a tough midsize truck that can handle your adventures around town, the Ford Ranger offers the strength and skill you need to take on your most incredible journeys.

Engine Options

The Ford Ranger offers a variety of ways to put its impressive power to the test. The new Ranger offers an optional new 2.7L EcoBoost® V6 engine that can yield up to 315 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque, granting it plenty of the oomph it needs to pass other vehicles on the highway and carve a path through rough terrain.

The Chevy Colorado offers a similar engine option, but it falls behind the Ranger, offering less horsepower and torque. So, if you're looking for a midsize truck with more punch, the Ford Ranger offers a robust engine that outpaces the Colorado's best efforts.

Towing Power

The Ford Ranger has a max towing capacity of 7,500 pounds, which is ample enough strength to help you tow small boats and other big toys. The 7,500-pound towing capacity is a touch less than what the Colorado can tow, but the Ranger offers a wide range of advanced towing technologies to help you get the most out of your towing experience. With available features like the following, you can breeze through towing and hauling and tackle your heavy lifting with confidence:

  • Pro-Trailer Backup Assist™
  • Tow/Haul Mode
  • Trailer Brake Controller
  • Trailer Light Check Function
  • Blind Spot Information System
These towing enhancement features give the Ford Ranger an edge, making it a fantastically capable companion for your adventures around Kendall, FL and Hollywood, FL.
