Ford numbered all of their full size trucks, and eventually added the title "Super Duty" to the 3/4 ton and larger f-series.
The F-150 has been produced as a 'Lightning' and 'Raptor'.
The compact truck has been called the 'Courier', 'Ranger', and some thought the new Ranger would be renamed the F-100.
There has been the Bronco.
Ford added the 'Explorer', and then the SUV's that followed share similarly themed names; 'Expedition', 'Escape', 'Excursion'.
Note that at one time, 'Ranger' and 'Explorer' were trim packages on trucks.
Other package names have been 'GT', 'High Rider', 'Sport Rider', 'Tremor', 'Edge', 'STX', and 'FX4'.
Sport Trac had an 'Adrenaline'.
'Lightning Bolt' and 'Storm' have been concept names not used.
And finally, the 'Raptor', is an off-road performance Ranger that we're not going to get. At least not for a while.
Oh ya, the 'Global' Ranger has a 'Wildtrak' package option.
So now the question, if you had to come up with a name for a unique off road package Ford Ranger, what would it be?
