The Ford Ranger is legendary in truck circles! How soon ppl forget. Most truck guys knew when Ford brought back a new Ranger it would be class leading. I bought '19 Ranger XLT FX4 an love it. Very impressive all around. Ford is a Truck & SUV Co & dominates those classes. Toyota is a sedan & economy car builder. Tundra 1/2 ton? Pls. Its weak , lacks power / strength & build quality/tech of F150 / F250. Tacoma is better than Tundra. Lets be proud of our All American iconic Ford Motor Co!

I'm in the market for a mid size truck and I test drove both. Back in February, I really wanted to like the Taco but the Ranger just felt more sophisticated, and it had more room in the back seats, and it was a better ride on the road. I'm going with a Ranger XLT $34k the only Taco that caught my eye was the TRD Pro but that runs for $45k+

Have a 19 xlt fx4 black out package and I have put 16 thousand on and ABSOLUTELY NO PROBLEMS AT ALL. It absolutley runs great , mind blowing on the trails and gas mileage is outstanding. I highly recommend a ranger to anyone I know.

It's not like turbos are something new. My Saab was problem-free for almost 20 years before I sold it, still going strong with new owner.

I used to work for a body shop that did prep on show vehicles for a Toyota dealer. One of them was a TRD Off Road Tacoma with the manual transmission. I had to deliver it and I thought it was really cool that it was a new truck with a stick shift! It didn't exactly drive how I expected a new truck to however. And the minivan engine did not sell me either. It was a dog! However, I did like the overall size and shape of the truck. Fast forward a few years, and I have a 2020 Ranger sitting in my driveway! The 2.3L EcoBoost's 310 ft-lbs gives it some punch, and the 10R80 transmission seems to take full advantage of it. Not to mention it is much more comfortable and the truck drives much less like an old truck compared to the Toyota! It is a matter of preference, but I am glad I sided with the Ranger!

Ah yes, the same debate as always for a person seeing other trucks in a spec sheet a lot of trucks look way better than a Tacoma, with better mileage more towing and even interior because essentially Tacoma's are the same trucks for a extended time of year. But that's what makes Toyota trucks great and with loyal customers. if it ain't broke don't fix it mentality... with reliability over features. so while you make your new purchase Toyota owners don't mind the older interior, the higher gas mileage because that taco is ruining over 200 thousand miles if serviced properly, and having that peace of mind your trucks isn't giving up on you is everything....little ramble from a happy FJ cruiser owner 👍

all the replies are from Toyota fan boys that that never owned a ford with an eco boost. Just spouting cyber gossip. As for resale, try trading in you toyota at the toyota dealership and see what they give you for it, and if they even come close to Kelly blue book. This is from a Toyota owner that owned a Tundra limited and runs tacomas for my business, but now runs Ford f150's on the larger trucks. Cost of general maintenance is higher at a Toyota dealership and the reliability montra applies in the 90"s when it came to them and american vehicles but not now. This is written be someone who has owned Toyotas and Fords. Foul plugs and burn oil LOL my ecoboost has 100,000 miles on it.

So, I own a '09 Taco, 4 cyl. SR5. Great 4X4 for what it is. Tacoma's are hard to beat - best in class value holding even though some are pricey. My work took possession of a new Ranger a year ago. We have about 6K on it with no problems so far. I will say, the Ranger is punchy. That Turbo wants to go all the time but you don't have to engage it unless you need to step on it. I agree with most comments here about value, durability, etc. Although, once you research the Ranger you'll find it's not a totally new truck that's not proven itself durable. Look at how they use this model in Australia and actually prefer it over the venerable Hilux. So, will it hold it's value like a Taco? I doubt it. If a person isn't a die-hard Toyo driver, it's a good option so long as you get a better deal. The Ranger is a solid truck and I've been impressed with my few thousand miles I've driven it.

Toyota Owners can’t stand the criticism. 2015 Tacoma is the Champ, and The Reputation Is old hype based on trucks of the past.

My problem with many of the mid-size trucks is the rear/back seat area. The Ranger, like the GM variants (Colorado/Canyon), does not let you fold the rear seat up (or down) to get a flat area for storage or riding your dog. I am looking for a mid-size truck as a platform for a "light duty", overland type truck. The Ranger, Colorado/Canyon don't cut it because of the rear seat. I know many people use the rear for passengers; however, not everyone does. I would like the flexibility to use the rear area to ride people and then fold the seats up or down and have a flat area for storage or to ride my dog. Not sure about the Frontier (current or new version), but the Ranger and Colorado/Canyon loose in this area and the Tacoma wins.

So what? The Tacoma comes to a stop just fine

I put 280k on a 2nd gen. Taco over 14 years, I absolutely LOVED that truck. I am now 3 years in owning a 2018 3rd gen. TRD4x4 and I HATE the 3.5!!!!!! The stock gearing and electronics are a disaster and NO ONE who spends that much on arguably the most sought after trucks in America should have to go and spend thousands more to have the truck re-geared and fix Toyota's horrific changes to the best midsize truck ever (I stay true to my discipline of not carrying unnecessary debt).. DO NOT GET A TACOMA NEWER THAN 2015 UNLESS $ IS NO ISSUE FOR YOU!!!... Oh and I have a 2018 TRD4x4 for sale :)

2012 taco owner here……was between a Ford ranger and a Tacoma for months, I look for a vehicle that maintenance is easy to do and Tacoma sold me on that. Can’t go wrong with that oil filter location . Also the Tacoma is naturally aspirated so you will get 100’s of thousands of miles out of it, ranger will burn out with those turbos pretty quickly.

If you want a higher resale value,it’s a no brainer the Toyota hands down!

Even though the ranger gets better fuel mileage, why not just go f150? With the 2.7 L you get the same mileage, more power, more torque, and a lot more room.

It's more expensive is my guess. I'm looking at Rangers because from what I've seen on the lots, Rangers are about $6-7k less in general. Since I dont really need the additional space or capability, it's a pretty good savings.

Personally I don’t like turbos in trucks, in cars that’s a different story

All turbos are questionable from what I’ve heard. I don’t know why Ford did not put their 3.3 v6 engine in this ranger.

I have a 2020 ranger and honestly I wouldn’t have considered buying it if it came with the 3.3 v6. I know that NA engines will usually be more reliable however the F150 ecoboost trucks are not bad over the long term. Lots of them have over 200k miles on the original engine in my area, and honestly for having to deal with a northern Canadian winter that’s better than most.

Tacoma still looks way better though

The Ford will have the advantage for initial purchase price though, that should make overall cost of ownership similar. I have seen many for sale for under $20k new which is at least $7-8k less than a V6 Tacoma if similar spec. Given the performance advantage it might be closer than you think with regard to overall competitiveness.

I get 19.5 with over sized tires on the hwy in my 3.5 TRD Sport.

The Ranger will not outlast the Tacoma the Tacoma V6 is tried and true and easily able to put 300,000 miles on those motors on a consistent basis. The Ranger on the other hand is using a four-cylinder turbo which in the long run will not last as V6. When you add a turbo and ask a four-cylinder to do the work of six cylinders the rule of thumb is a star that burns twice as bright burns out twice as fast that motor will be garbage at 100,000 miles

I own neither but my problem with the Ford is that folding the rear-seat is not as flexible as in the Taco and Colorado. That's a deal breaker for me otherwise it is a nicer looking truck.

That eco boost engine will work harder and wear out faster than the proven 3.5 six in the Tacoma.

Before I bought my Taco, I was leaning towards the Ranger. My wife said “you want bells and whistles or something that going to last 300k and still sell better than a Ford". Buy what you want, need and use it for but I bought mine because I needed something to last 15+ years. Not for resale value.

Both trucks are great… at the end of the day, what matters is what you like… 😎
