The SnowSport HD and DK2 Everest are, hands down, the best snow plows for a Ford Ranger
. Let’s start with the SnowSport HD. This model will run you about $1,800, which is a fairly affordable price for a snow plow. This versatile plow performs well on a variety of surfaces, from asphalt to concrete, and even grass and gravel. It’s also self-adjusting, meaning all you need to do is get behind the wheel and let the plow do the rest.
The SnowSport HD also has a straightforward installation process, which you’ll appreciate when the weather starts to thaw out and you no longer need the plow.
The DK2 Everest is much pricer at around $4,400, but the one-year warranty can help put your mind (and wallet) at ease. This is definitely the snazzier of the two: it comes with a handheld remote for easy control.
Additionally, it’s more lightweight—meaning it won’t mess with your suspension system no matter how long you leave it on. And, to make sure it lasts for winter after winter, it’s coated in industrial powder-coating and dipped in galvanized hardware to help repel rust.
If you’re adding a snow plow, we’d urge you to consider getting new winter plowing tires
as well. The deeper treads, reinforced sidewalls, and added load capacity help promote safe winter driving
and will help you slice through snow, ice, and slush with ease.
