The Ford Ranger gets some goodies to give it even more capability and desirability.
Sadly this is for the American market right now, but we’re hoping Ford SA gets the message that customers want to accessorise their bakkies and bakkie modification is a way of life. “Our goal is to inspire customers by giving them capabilities and styling options from the aftermarket brands they love,” Eric Cin, global director of Ford Vehicle Personalization, comments. “The three new Ford Performance Packs empower our adventure-loving Ranger customers to explore even further with even more freedom with the added off-roading capability right from the dealership.”
These upgrades are great as they’re OEM and therefore do not compromise your warranty. There are 3 packages which offer mechanical, hardware and graphic upgrades. All kits include Fox shocks, new 17-inch Dyno gray wheels, and special graphics for the bed and windscreen.
