The modern Ford ranger is the same size as the F-150 from 2004.

Not if you're actually honest and compare trucks with the same features (4 doors, similar bed length).

Trucks are mostly higher than they were before, but their width and length hasn't increased as much as some people think as long as we compare trucks with the same features

2004 F150 crew cab, 5.5' bed:

Length: 224"
Height: 73.5"
Width: 78.9"

2023 Ford Ranger crew cab 6' bed:

Length: 210.8" (-13.2")
Height: 71.5" (-2")
Width: 73.3" (-5.6")

Are you telling me that 4 doors are longer than 2 doors?

Crazy right? Who would have thought that a mid size truck with four doors and a 6' bed would be longer than a full size truck with two doors and a 6' bed?

Yeah right pal, what's next- 6.5 is longer than 5.5?

What's funny is that the Ranger with the 6' bed is still more than a foot shorter than the 20 years old F150 crew cab with the 5.5' bed, so as I said, when you compare the two with the same features, the 20 years old F150 is bigger, people look at 4 doors mid size and compare them to regular cab short bed full size trucks and come to stupid conclusions...
