So I have been just as completely obsessed with the new Ranger as any of you here over the last few months. Just today though I realized that with my eyes peeled every second (EVERY second) wondering if I'm going to see one on the road that I have never mistook a Colorado/Canyon for one; a Tacoma once maybe (certainly wasn't from the front); and only occasionally an F150 (most of those coming directly from the rear). Seriously... the most often noticed "Is it a Ranger!?" truck almost always ends up being a RAM.
This isn't a bad thing to me at all as I like the Ram's styling the best for full-size trucks; I just don't need or want a full-size. The Ranger seems to have very similar overall curves like the Ram as compared to the boxed, squared off lines of the F150. Of course, the details in the grill and light shapes, and other design specifics show the Ford relationship; but strictly comparing silhouettes I think the Ram is the nearest comparison.
So, anyone else think the 2019 Ranger looks more like a junior RAM than a baby F150? Or am a I crazy??? And note, this IS coming from a guy who's never owned a truck and who certainly has no brand loyalty. I do love the new Ranger though and am excited to have one (placing an order this week!). Just figured this would make for an interesting, if possibly triggering, discussion. Haha!
