Ford’s Ranger will be refreshed for 2004 to better compete against Chevrolet’s new Colorado
compact truck. The 2004 Ranger is identified by a new front-end design that is similar to
the new F-150. A choice of bench or bucket seats is offered for the first time in leather
trim, and new instruments also are added. The Tremor audiophile model gets 4×4 capability
along with a new high-powered stereo system. The FX4 also gains a manual transmission
option, and off-road models get retuned suspensions. Powertrains remain mainly unchanged
with a 143-hp four, a 154-hp 3.0-liter V-6, and a 207-hp 4.0-liter V-6.
