2019 Ford Ranger Features Best in Seat Belt Safety

For years we’ve had people ask us why Ford no longer made the Ranger.

Therefore, we asked our friends at Ford and relayed the information given: “There isn’t a demand for small trucks.”

Guess what?! It looks like Ford listened, heard the demand, and put those requests into action.

The 2019 Ford Ranger is here and it’s full of smart technology and safety features for the family.

In fact, the Ranger has some of the smartest seat belts in the industry through the use of an innovative safety technology called Belt Monitor.

To ensure rear seat passengers stay buckled up, the feature alerts the driver if a second-row passenger unbuckles and indicates which seat they’re in.

You will know right away if a passenger is unbuckled.

How is this different from other seat belt systems you ask? Other systems only monitor belts upon the initial start of a trip.

The Ford Ranger’s system monitors in real time while the truck is in motion.

It’s smaller size doesn’t take away from the power it brings to the road.

It offers a smooth ride, easy maneuvering, and a fun drive. Honestly, it took me back to my teenage years!

I learned how to drive (manual) in a 1986 Ford Ranger. Oh, how things have changed since then!

The new 2019 Ford Ranger is definitely worth a look if you’re in the market for a new truck!
