Ford Ranger 4th Generation (North America)

2019–2023 · truck

Ranger's return to North America after the 2011 hiatus — based on the global T6 platform but with NA-spec frame and bumpers. Single engine: 2.3L EcoBoost I4 (270hp/310 lb-ft), 10-speed 10R80 automatic, no manual. SuperCab or SuperCrew; regular cab dropped. FX4 off-road package, Tremor (2021+) adds Fox dampers and 32-inch tires. Replaced 2024 by the all-new P703 5th-gen built in Michigan.

Watch out: Two repeat complaints from owners: (1) front-end clunk / sway-bar end-link wear at low miles — Ford issued multiple TSBs and replaced links under warranty for many; (2) 10R80 10-speed harsh shifts and 1-2 / 2-1 flares that improved with Ford TCM reflashes through the model run. Neither is catastrophic but both are dealer-visit items for early-build trucks.
