Ranger question

From what I've read on here, the only thing different about rangers is that they have alot of fancier stuff.

But my friend says they have less power.

Is this true or do they have the same amount of power as a regular 73-79?

Your friend does drugs . . . tell him to stop. No, they have no less power than any other truck of that era, just different trim options.

OK, that's good to know.

Now I can rub it in his face.

Do Rangers usually sell for more?

No,
The Ranger is an application to Ford truck Models.
There is a Ranger Explorer,

The better equipped trucks like XLT's & Lariats.

You can do a search using the words Trim Line in this forum for more info.

They wouldn't sell for much more, but more than just a custom. Like million said it is mostly a badge, but the Ranger XLTs are very nice with all the options and trim pieces.
