2023 Ford Ranger new owners share their experiences with their trucks
The Ford Ranger is one of the most popular pickup trucks in the Philippine market. The current generation was introduced in July last year and since then, continues to have a large and growing following with more and more units seen driving on local roads.
With that, Ford Philippines has tapped some of these new owners to share with us what they think of their daily driven 2023 Ford Rangers. These two Ford Ranger owners are Pampanga-based website developer and part-time photographer Philip Vino and Cebu-based associate manager Earl Cuevas.
“A pickup truck is really ideal for my needs. As a young driver, I prefer a pickup truck that looks good and matches my personality. I’m always in remote locations due to the nature of my job, so I need a vehicle that can keep up with my busy schedule, and I found it in the next-gen Ranger,” says Philip Vino
“The headlamps are too handsome. Inside, the ride comfort is outstanding. It doesn’t feel like a pick-up truck as the ride feels really premium,” shares Earl Cuevas.
Both Vino and Cuevas shared their thoughts on the Ranger’s powertrain performance. “Driving to neighboring towns and provinces like Subic, Bataan, Zambales, or all the way to Metro Manila and Tagaytay is so easy and convenient with the next-gen Ranger,” Vino shares. He also mentioned its fuel efficiency. “A single full tank was almost enough for our 14-day stay in Baguio,” he adds.
Cuevas, who frequently drives around Cebu because of the nature of his job, talked about the vehicle’s driving capabilities across different road conditions. “I have clients who live far from the city and up in the mountains as well, so it’s great to have a truck that is so capable to take me wherever I need to go,” he says.
Both Ranger owners also told Ford about their love for the technology that the Ford Ranger is equipped with. For Vino, the Apple Carplay and 360-degree camera are some of the most useful driver-assist technologies.
With the introduction of FordPass last year, both owners are also enjoying remote access to their 2023 Rangers through their mobile devices. “We are all aware of how hot it can get in our country. With FordPass, I can remotely start my truck and turn on the air conditioner. My passengers are definitely happy and excited to ride the truck,” says Vino.
“It’s a highly recommended truck if you’re looking for a vehicle that can drive you to your workplace and take you to new places and destinations on weekends. You get the best of both worlds,” Vino shares. For Cuevas, “There are plenty of choices in the market right now. It will depend on the buyer’s preference, but for me, the next-gen Ranger is one of the best in terms of interior, ride comfort, and exterior design.”
For the 2023 Ford Ranger customer, will these statements help you decide or perhaps excite you more on your future purchase?
