Ford Courier Review and Road Test
Our opinion is that the Ford Courier is one of the best products to come out of
the Ford factory. It is a car that promises all-round performance and
drivability to its owner. The Ford Courier is considered to be an efficient work
vehicle both on and off the road.
The Ford Courier we reviewed was the 4 door 4x4 Turbo Diesel Super Cab, a new
addition.
The Engine
Ford Couriers can be found with a choice of two engines; the familiar
2.6-liter petrol engine and the 2.5-liter turbo-charged and intercooled diesel
engine. The core of the AXT Turbocharger System that is found in the Ford
Courier is a custom-built Garrett water-cooled turbocharger. The designer and
producer being Allied Signal; who use technological resources of Aerospace and
Engineered Materials. The Garrett turbochargers that are used in Ford Couriers
are often considered the best turbochargers on the market.
Another point of the Ford Courier worth mentioning is the fact that the chassis
uses box-section members, and is found to be rather stiff. The fenders, wheel
wells, load gate, floor panel and other panels of the Ford Courier are made of
galvanized steel.
A Smooth Start
Another point that has made Ford Courier one of the most widely acknowledged
trucks is that it is genuinely strong and tough, similar to its F-series
cousins. All the engine needs is one go to start!
Safety Features
All the 4WD models of Ford Courier have a 70-liter fuel tank with standard
16” wheels. The 4x2 super and crew cab have a 63 liter tank with 14” wheels. For
safety, the Ford Courier has a drivers airbag, along with other safety features
like side door anti-intrusion beams and a collapsible steering column. |
