    The next-generation Ranger's updated appearance and enhanced handling turned out to be a match for Philip's way of life.

    “A pick-up truck is really ideal for my needs. As a young driver, I prefer a pick-up truck that looks good and matches my personality.

    For Earl, he liked the 2023 Ford Ranger’s look inside and out. “The headlamps are too handsome. Inside, the ride comfort is outstanding. It doesn’t feel like a pick-up truck as the ride feels really premium,” he shared.

    Earl, who frequently drives around Cebu because of the nature of his job, applauded the vehicle’s driving capabilities across different terrains. “I have clients who live far from the city and up in the mountains as well, so it's great to have a truck that is so capable to take me wherever I need to go,” he illustrated.

    Both Earl and Philip adore the technology that comes standard with the new Ranger. According to Philip, the 360-degree camera and Apple Carplay are two of the most practical driver-assist features that make driving both safe and entertaining.

You get the best of both worlds,” Philip explained.
