The 2013 model was the recipient of the &quot;International Pick-Up Award 2013,&quot; marking the third year in a row that Ford has emerged victorious in this competition. The judging panel, which was made up of journalists from around the world, rated a number of pick-up trucks with a point system, and the Ranger was the clear victor.<\/p>\n<p>They chose this truck as the top model for its high performance both on and off the road. The judges also touted the Ranger&#039;s engine offerings, towing capacity and safety, as the new model can be combined with a 4&#215;2 or a 4&#215;4 Duratorq TDCi engine, which are both powerful and economical. This truck beat out the second-place <a href=\"http:\/\/www.njstateauto.com\/preowned\/index.cfm?make=Isuzu\" class=\"dnautolink\">Isuzu<\/a> D-Max and third-place <a href=\"http:\/\/www.njstateauto.com\/preowned\/index.cfm?make=Volkswagen\" class=\"dnautolink\">Volkswagen<\/a> Amarok. Their combined points did not even add up the the 47 points the Ranger got from the judges.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;The Ranger is great for work and great for leisure, and customers will appreciate the difference as soon as they get behind the wheel,&quot; said Paul Randle, vehicle line director for Ford of Europe&#039;s Global Commercial Vehicles. &quot;This prestigious award is testament to the work of our global product teams, and there is plenty more to look forward to with the launch of the all-new Transit and all-new Transit Connect in 2013.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>The Ranger has been an integral part of Ford&#039;s pick-up family for many years, so those in the market for a truck may want to check out used models. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.njstateauto.com\" class=\"dnautolink\">New Jersey State Auto Auction<\/a> carries a wide selection of cars and trucks, so car shoppers in the New York\/New Jersey area may be able to find the Ranger they&#039;re looking for at the lot, which is conveniently located in Jersey City.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ford offers many pick-up trucks, and while the F-150 may be the most popular truck in America, the Ranger recently received international recognition.
