2016 FORD RANGER 1647 PX MkII XL Cab Chassis Single Cab 2dr Man 6sp 4x4 3.2DT $16,990 Exc. Gov. Charges

This 2016 Ford Ranger PX MkII XL is a single-cab cab-chassis built around practical, hard-working capability. Its 4x4 drivetrain, six-speed manual transmission and 3.2-litre five-cylinder turbo-diesel engine give it the mechanical specification expected of a traditional work ute, while the cab-chassis format leaves the rear ready for specialised equipment. In this example, that versatility is extended by a hydraulic tilt tray, creating a useful platform for transporting equipment, materials or vehicles.

The Ranger's diesel engine produces 147 kW and 470 Nm, with its torque developed from 1,500 rpm. That broad torque delivery is well suited to moving substantial loads and working at low speeds, while the manual gearbox gives the driver direct control over gearing in changing conditions. The selectable 4x4 system adds traction for uneven surfaces and unsealed access roads, and the vehicle is specified with a 3,500 kg braked towing capacity and 750 kg unbraked capacity.

With 155,130 kilometres displayed, the vehicle presents as a used commercial-focused ute. The listing records the condition as good and notes service history and a logbook. It also includes three keys and remotes, offering useful everyday convenience for a vehicle that may be shared between drivers or used in a work setting.

Its equipment is deliberately functional rather than extravagant. Steel wheels, mud flaps and a tow bar support the work-oriented brief, while four listed good tyres provide the contact with the road. Electric front windows, power mirrors, air conditioning and cruise control make longer trips or warmer working days more manageable. Steering-wheel controls, Bluetooth, mobile-phone connectivity, a CD/MP3 audio system and AUX/USB input add straightforward communication and entertainment functions without distracting from the Ranger's central utility.

Inside, the cabin uses vinyl flooring and vinyl floor mats, a sensible choice for a vehicle likely to encounter dirt, dust and work boots. Bucket front seats, an adjustable driver's seat, front cup holders and a multi-purpose centre console provide the basic support and storage expected in a two-seat commercial cabin. Safety equipment includes dual front and head airbags, anti-lock braking, brake assist, electronic brake-force distribution, traction control, trailer stability control, rollover mitigation and dynamic stability control.

The cab-chassis measures 5,110 mm long, 1,850 mm wide and 1,800 mm high, with 232 mm of ground clearance. Its stated payload is 1,405 kg and gross vehicle mass is 3,200 kg. These figures, together with the tray conversion and four-wheel-drive system, make the Ranger a practical proposition where carrying ability, towing and access to less predictable surfaces matter more than passenger capacity. The two-seat layout also preserves a clear focus on tools, cargo and job-site functionality.
