When you’re looking for a new work truck in Warren, VA, then it makes sense to compare the 2023 Toyota Tacoma and the 2023 Ford Ranger. You need a vehicle that has impressive features, is highly configurable, and is tough enough to get the job done. Which truck is right for you? Let’s compare these two compact pickup trucks and figure out which belongs in your garage.
Reviews found that the Tacoma was exciting to drive with its agile steering, especially during off-roading. The Tacoma comes standard with the 2.7-liter 4-cylinder engine with 159 horsepower and 180 lb-ft of torque, and if you want more acceleration, there is also a 3.5-liter V6 engine with 278 horsepower and 265 lb-ft of torque. You also have the option of a six-speed manual with the TRD model.
Critics said that the Ranger was clumsy around corners and the ride was a bit jumpy. Also, the suspension didn’t do much for restraining sharp motions. The pickup truck was discovered to be unresponsive and slow to respond in its 10-speed automatic normal mode. Critics also found that when braking, the truck appeared to nose dive.
The Tacoma incorporates touchscreen infotainment in every model, with a 7-inch display in the base model, and an 8-inch screen in the upper trims. The Tacoma also added some new technology features such as Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto compatibility, making the truck more user friendly for a better overall experience.
While the Ranger also offers Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto, critics found that interacting with paired mobile devices was complicated. There also aren’t any steering wheel buttons for the phone, so occupants either have to use voice commands or use the touch screen.
The Tacoma has a comfortable interior with its power-adjustable and heated front seat options. Also, if you have small children, there are two complete sets of rear LATCH connectors for installing safety seats. You can also seat four to five passengers in the Tacoma if needed.
Critics found that the Ranger’s interior was mediocre and had a dated design. Also, the rear seats were said to be cramped for adults who needed extra legroom.
