What's wrong with my 1988 Ford Ranger?

Whats the difference between a Ford Ranger and a Ford Ranger Edge?

• I just bought a 2004 Ford Ranger Edge. First truck iv ever owned. I know some people that have Ford Rangers but iv never seen the Edge put on it. What is the difference other than the edge lettering on the side lol

• Answer:

  Yeah, its just a trim package. Edge comes with alloy wheels, fog lights, monocolor paint, the 4x2 has a 4x4 look and ride height, stuff like that. Its targeted toward to "youth market" who want a better looking truck but not expensive. it's basically an XL Ranger with added on appearance stuff. Not as fancy as an XLT. "Ford’s idea was to create a Ranger version especially geared toward the youth market, and tie it in with the introduction of the all-new 2001 Ranger this coming October. Shown to the public for the first time at the Chicago Auto Show earlier this year, the Edge is so named because it will be a bit “edgier” than the regular Rangers. It will offer a host of features designed to appeal to high school and college-age kids, as well as be affordable. Drew Cook, marketing manager for Ranger, understood what needed to be done. “Current Ranger buyers are a lot older than you would think,” he said. “The goal of the Ranger Edge is to attract a younger customer into the Ranger lineup. The truck will provide good value; our goal is to market a product that hits on attributes that drives the youth market.”
