Can anyone help out with the exact towing capacity of a 2000 Ford Ranger? Planning some trips that might involve a bit of towing.

The towing capacity can vary based on the engine and whether it’s 2WD or 4WD. Generally, it ranges from 2,000 to 6,000 lbs. Check your owner’s manual for the exact specs for your model.

To add to what Alex said, if you have the 4.0L V6, you’re looking at the higher end of that range. But make sure your hitch and frame can handle what you plan to tow.

Don‘t forget about the state of your transmission and brakes. They need to be in top shape if you’re planning to tow near the max capacity. Safety first!

I rigged my Ranger with a transmission cooler when I started towing frequently. Really helps keep everything running smoothly and prevents overheating.

Also, check if your tires are proper for towing heavy loads. Upgraded mine to all-terrain with better load ratings to improve stability and handling.
