No matter how you drive or work in Palm Beach Gardens, there’s a Ford truck that will be a perfect fit for you. If you know you don’t need a heavy-duty truck, then you’re likely deciding between the 2023 Ford F-150 and Ford Ranger. Both trucks have everything you expect from a Ford truck: exceptional power, plenty of features, and unmistakeable style that’s always in fashion on Lake Worth streets. Take a look at the Al Packer Ford West Palm Beach comparison between the new Ford F-150 and Ford Ranger to start the process of deciding which one works best for you.
It’s probably no surprise that the full-size Ford F-150 comes with a slightly higher price tag than the midsize Ford Ranger. Here’s how their starting MSRPs compare:
Again, these differences come down to the difference between driving a full-size truck, which is going to have a more powerful engine and more capabilities than a smaller midsize model like the Ford Ranger. That said, the Ford Ranger has the best towing and payload capacities in its midsize class. You’ll also have multiple engine options with both trucks so you can choose the amount of power you need without paying for more than you need. Let’s compare the base level engine for both models:
The smaller Ford Ranger gets slightly better gas mileage than the Ford F-150 with most of its engine options. The base Ford Ranger 2.3L 4-cylinder engine gets an estimated 21/26 city/highway mpg. That said, one of the Ford F-150 engine upgrades bests the Ford Ranger: the 3.5L Powerboost® Full Hybrid V6 engine, which gets an exceptional 25/26 city/highway mpg while still generating the power a full-size truck needs.
