2016 Ford Ranger: The ideal truck for work and play

2016 Ford Ranger: The ideal truck for work and play

While the full-size pickup is the first thing to come to mind when individuals think about lifestyle off-roaders with a cargo bed, smaller pickups have become the vehicle of choice for small businesses who are only interested in hauling cargo. However, these smaller pickups clearly would make for a practical vehicle for everyday use as well, if they actually came with modern conveniences and weren’t just offered as workhorses.

First drive: 2016 Ford Ranger WildTrak in the UAE

The Ford Ranger WildTrak has been around for a while, although it has gone under the radar largely due to the fact that it only came with a diesel engine. Despite the visual modifications, its strong resemblance to the commercial variant never helped either. Just as diesel prices dropped significantly, Ford decided to update the Ranger WildTrak for 2016, trying to make it more appealing to people who desire a pickup truck that is too big to fit in the average parking space.
