Ford Ranger 2009
Many rural, suburban and even urban drivers adore the Ranger’s big-truck attitude and affordable price, making it the best-selling American pickup truck for 17 years.

Though deemed among the least fuel-efficient trucks out there, these ever-popular vehicles are unlikely to ever completely be removed from the road anytime soon. Convincing a truck loyalist that a 1.5-litre, four-cylinder engine hybrid is going to give them the same satisfaction on the road as a Ranger is a hard sell, to be sure… But higher oil pricesl may be thing that does the trick.
