I have always said that a mid-spec XLT derivative Ford Ranger is the sweet spot in the range. And when it comes to value for money, the 2.0-litre single turbo one even more so.
This is exactly what has arrived for long-term testing at The Citizen Motoring .
The plan was to hit the open road over the festive season and make the best use of the fuel consumption this single turbo double cab offers. But a family members fractured foot and a moon boot put paid to any plans to go surfing or having a cold beer in comfort at Buffelsbaai. And so, the decision was made to stay at home and hit the open road later in the year.
