Ya, totally. I get it. Many folks like a firm brake pedal though..Not hard to push or touchy (touchy reminds me of my Dad's 69 Impala...holy smokes those were touchy). mind you, but not spongy and an earlier initiation and consistent feel through the range. I loved the brakes on my 04 Mach 1.I find this discussion interesting. I've only driven my truck a couple hundred miles at this point, but I actually like the brakes. They are somewhat "mushy", but I hated the very sensitive brakes on my Honda - it was hard to keep them from grabbing hard. It was like you press down a little and they did nothing and then all of a sudden they were ON - HARD. I like the extended pedal travel on the Ranger that allows you easier application of just as much brake as you want/need without being grabby. If you want them on hard, you just push down hard and they comply easily
Different strokes for different folks I guess.
That was the one negative thing that stood out to me on the Ranger test-drive and I wasn't even looking for that. I'll accept it at some point
