Ford Ranger weight

Ford Ranger curb weight affects the fuel efficiency, handling, and overall driving experience. A heavier Ranger may have a more stable ride and handle better in adverse weather conditions, but it may also require more fuel and have slower acceleration.

On the other hand, a lighter Ford Ranger may boast of better MPG and quicker acceleration, though it may also have reduced stability and less control on the road.

The lightest Ford Ranger was produced in 2011 with a weight of 3028 lbs. And the heaviest model came off the production line in 2000 with 4750 lbs pounds in curb weight.
