Ford Ranger towing capacity

Ford's midsize pickup. It was out of the U.S. lineup for 2012 through 2018, so those years have no pages.

The nameplate began in 1983. Pages here start at 2000. Earlier charts are not transcribed yet.

Cited years

Highest cited conventional rating per model year, in thousands of pounds. Labels mark the largest changes from the year before, counted only where both years are cited. A dashed tick is a year with no cited rating; it is not zero and is not estimated.

Every model year

A filled mark means that year has a cited rating. An empty mark is still a real page: generation, what changed, and an explicit gap instead of a guessed number.
