Fitness for purpose.<\/span> Take a deftly aimed power tool to all the marketing flim-flam, and you can\u2019t go far wrong with that mantra. There\u2019s no messing around when it comes to a pick-up truck, a vehicle that has a clear job to do, and in most cases does it admirably.<\/p>\n

Except that even this segment isn\u2019t immune to mission creep, and these hardy vehicles are now expected to double as workhorse and acceptable all-round family transport. The Ford F-150<\/a> may typify the breed, but outside of the US the Ranger has been in active duty for more than 40 years. A global player since 2011, it sells in 180 territories worldwide, and is particularly dominant in the European pick-up market.<\/p>\n

But get this, 80 percent of the Rangers<\/a> sold in the UK last year were in Wildtrak spec, the version that swaddles the hard plastics in leather and ladles on the decals. It\u2019s\u2014deep breath\u2014a genuine lifestyle vehicle, beloved by the sort of buyers who actually do stuff<\/em> rather than just think about it.<\/p>\n
