Ford Philippines has the Ford Ranger and the Ford Everest as its popular pickup truck and 7-seater SUV. These vehicles have two diesel engine options: the 2.0-liter single turbo and the 2.0-liter bi-turbo motor.

Each has its strengths and weaknesses. And truth be told, both vehicles are highly capable and have become the best-selling models in their respective categories.

The pandemic has pushed our desires to travel and have some adventure again. And talking about adventure, Ford Motor Company has driven our eyes to the muscular Ford Ranger 2022.
