PRETORIA, SOUTH AFRICA, 16 July 2024 – The Ford Ranger is designed to enhance every aspect of your life, whether you’re navigating a worksite, embarking on a camping adventure, or managing daily errands. Among its array of smart features is the innovative drop-in bedliner1 available on selected variants, which introduces a new level of practicality and organization to your load box.
Tim Cleary, Manager of Body Structural Systems and Closures at Ford Australia, highlights the ingenuity behind this feature: “The specially moulded slots in the drop-in bedliner enable owners to craft their own wooden partitions, effectively segmenting the Ranger’s load box into multiple storage zones.”
This innovative design allows you to tailor the storage space to meet your needs, whether it’s securing groceries or organizing camping gear for a weekend getaway. The process is straightforward: measure, cut, and fit the wooden partitions to create your desired storage zones.

The Ranger’s tailgate doubles as a functional workbench, equipped with two integrated clamp pockets to hold timber securely while cutting. This feature underscores the Ranger’s utility, making it easier to create personalized storage solutions.
Creating defined storage zones within the Ranger’s load box ensures that your items remain exactly where you want them, reducing the risk of damage to both your cargo and your vehicle. Items are less likely to move around, making them more accessible and secure.
“With the diverse uses of the Ranger for work, family, and recreation, it was crucial to offer an easy way to create organized storage spaces,” Cleary adds. “Rather than having a single open tub, the Ranger’s load box can be customized into a multi-purpose, multi-zone area, enhancing its functionality and convenience.”
The Ford Ranger continues to set new standards in utility and versatility, making it an indispensable companion for every aspect of life.
