What Kiwi Owners Say

Real experiences from Ford Ranger drivers across New Zealand

"Three years of towing a 20-foot boat every weekend, plus daily use on construction sites. The Ranger hasn't missed a beat. The 3.0L diesel has plenty of grunt, and the ride quality loaded or empty is excellent."

Mike K.

Builder & Boat Owner, Auckland

"Best decision I made was upgrading to the Ranger. The technology is impressive - the 12-inch screen and voice control make managing calls on job sites so much easier. And the 5-year warranty gives me peace of mind."
