Ford Ranger Raptor - Buda, TX
Whether you’re tackling the I-35 commute northbound toward Austin or hitting the open stretches and unpaved backroads across Hays and Comal counties, one mid-size pickup stands completely unchallenged: the 2026 Ford Ranger® Raptor®.
At Leif Johnson Ford of Buda, we’re thrilled to offer unmatched off-road power packed into a nimble, everyday-friendly footprint. The Ranger Raptor takes pure Ford Performance engineering and fits it into a versatile mid-size truck built for both weekday drives around town and rugged weekend escapes across Hill Country trails.
405 HP Twin-Turbo V6
Under the hood of the 2026 Ranger Raptor sits a high-output 3.0-liter twin-turbo EcoBoost® V6, churning out a massive 405 horsepower and 430 lb-ft of torque, seamlessly paired with an advanced 10-speed automatic transmission.
Equipped with an anti-lag system in Baja Mode, which keeps the twin turbos spooling even when you lift off the accelerator, the Ranger Raptor delivers immediate, crisp throttle response whenever you power out of corners or launch off the line.
