In addition, it enhances traction and controllability to give you extra confidence behind the wheel.

Included as part of the available FX4 Off-Road Package, the Electronic-Locking Rear Differential will activate as needed to hold the back axle together completely. Therefore, each tire gets to exert as much force as it can, and this process enhances the traction on both of those wheels at the same time because they'll rotate in unison.

This feature pairs beautifully with the package's Trail Control system. It handles the braking and throttle for you while keeping your speed constant. The result lets you stay focused on BC's tricky trails without worrying about commanding the pickup.

This truck's Lariat trim level comes with many illumination features to light the way.

The Lariat trim level boasts LED head and tail lamps that sine bright reliably and are also extra durable to stand up to tough job sites or rugged trails. At the same time, the automatic high beams will activate as needed and then dim in case another driver approaches to prevent you from blinding them.

There are LEDs in place for the fog lights and daytime running bulbs, as well. In addition, this pickup's side mirrors include both turn signal indicators and security approach lamps. Even the interior gets extra brightness in BC, thanks to the ambient illumination installed on the front and rear footwells, the centre console bin, and the cupholders that can range from many available colours.

Similarly, FordPass also lets you get in touch with dealers and call for roadside assistance wherever you end up. You may also use it to find your pickup in a packed parking lot.

When you add the Performance Package to this pickup, you get Tuned Front and Rear Suspension Systems specifically tailored to tackle both city trips and high-intensity trails. Plus, the FOX 2.0-inch Monotube Dampers and Rear Piggyback Reservoirs help cushion you from jostling forces while adjusting themselves to highway driving as needed, too.

Plus, the truck will ride seamlessly on its available 17-inch magnetic aluminum alloy wheels, as well, while the all-terrain tires enhance traction and control even further. That way, whether it is a rocky trail or a smooth city street in BC, the 2021 Ranger can handle it.

It has been designed to offer a smooth, stable ride no matter what happens.

This truck boasts parabolic leaf springs with a low-friction flexible design, which means the pickup's axles can move further and less stiffly than conventional designs. As a result, you get to enjoy a smoother feel behind the wheel—even on the toughest of trails.

Similarly, the rear shocks are nitrogen gas-pressurized, while the double A-arm independent front suspension has been designed to afford you excellent controllability. Plus, both of them work in concert with the monotube shock absorbers to dissipate heat better and avoid fading. So, go ahead and tackle any trail in BC; the 2021 Ranger has your back.

It comes in two different arrangements to suit any driver in BC.

Going for the SuperCab model gives you a 6-foot long bed and two doors on the cabin. Both the passenger and driver will enjoy comfortable bucket chairs up front, while a rear bench is installed for any last-minute additions. And XL configurations boast the ability to remove the back row entirely to gain extra flexibility when it's needed.

The SuperCrew gives the pickup a 5-foot long bed and four full-sized doors. Up to five people can fit inside the spacious cabin, and there's under-seat storage in the back, to boot. But regardless of the option you choose, every trip around BC is sure to be seamless.

It has been explicitly designed with this setup in mind for fantastic audio on the road.

Ten speakers are strategically installed inside the cab, and they all have been tuned to ensure optimum listening throughout the interior. That means the total 660 watts coming from the amplifier are sure to impress.

The system also includes a microphone, which continually monitors any background noise and filters it out for clean, authentic sound every time. As a result, any drive in BC can be enhanced with clear, beautiful music streamed via Apple CarPlay or Android Autio using the SYNC 3 infotainment system.

This truck is built to handle any terrain you come across in BC.

The ranger boasts a 226 mm ground clearance when it has been outfitted with the 4x4 drivetrain. That allows it to effortlessly crawl across the rockiest of trails, while the 25.4° departure angle means even the steepest of hills won't be of any concern.

Even the front overhang has been carefully designed. Measuring at 910 mm, you will find it easy to avoid hangups on bushes or in mud as you drive along BC's trails. Plus, Tremor Off-Road Package-equipped Ranger trucks get an ample 246.38 mm of ground clearance to boot, along with a front bash guard and undercarriage skid plates.

That is because this truck aced all of the trials required to be certified as a top performer.

While undergoing these gruelling trials, the 2021 Ranger had to conquer terrain so challenging that robots were required to replace human drivers. It also spent many days in a lab to discover any areas that squeaked or rattled to eliminate them, which also ensured the truck's suspension could withstand even the toughest of trails.

As for towing, the Ranger had to tug heavy loads up a steep slope in temperatures that reached 37.8°C (100°F)—without overheating. The final results were a resounding success, meaning you are assured of excellent performance no matter what happens in BC.

The 2021 Explorer Timberline boasts a moon roof. You can slide back the cover to flood the interior with natural light or even retract it entirely and let the fresh air flow freely. The custom Deep Cypress colouring compliments the terrain around you, too, while Stone Mesh appliques recall the rocks and streams.

Don't worry; just because you're letting nature in doesn't have to mean that dirt comes along for the ride, too. That's because the 2021 Explorer Timberline boasts rubber floor liners and cloth inserts, both of which are simple to keep clean.
