Mate. I just came across your channel on TH-cam. I did subscribe. I'm a yank, live in the desert in Arizona and love seeing the outback of Australia. You give me plenty of that. Keep up the great work !
G’day Scott, good to have you along for the ride mate 👍🏻🍺
I was like “nooooo don’t stop.. let it sing” 😂😂😂👍🏼
First 2 attempts are trying to walk the girl through. Attempt #3...time to open up the song book. 😎👍🏻🇦🇺
Sweet teaser can’t wait for the full video
Cheers mate, working on it 😎👍🏻
Awesome job mate. Might need to get an additional set of max trax for the camper ! Can’t wait for the next video 🔥
G’day Mate, yeah I think I’m going to need to widen the wheel track of the trailer, it’s a fair bit narrower than the Raptor turning it into a big anchor in the soft stuff. 👍🏻😎🇦🇺
Thanks for the regular raptor updates
Where were you camping at?
Do you still like the 2L ?
G’Day mate, I’m still loving the 2.0L, this video was captured up at Lorrela Springs in the Northern Territory 👍🏻🇦🇺
At least you had the equipment and knew how to use it to keep going. What brand and model belt knife were you wearing. Good video thanks.
G'Day Dave, Great comment mate thank you. Getting stuck is all a part of the adventure, getting un-stuck with the minimum amount of sweat is the real challenge. My belt knife is a "OAF Nation - Kodiak GEN 3"
For how many km have you been doing this?
Just lower the air pressure on tyers to around 10 bar and you'll drive easy
LOL, you mean 10 psi, 10 bar is 140 psi
@@99unclebob 14 psi is good
Actually 5 psi is what i do in sand and deep snow.
@@beerbeforebreakfast I prefer 0 psi
@@beerbeforebreakfast than you risk debeading you tyre from your rim. 15 psi is easily enough low to get through any sand.
Cool video Damo, such a teaser for the full trip video. Did you put any airbags in the rear springs to stop it sagging with your trailer weight? I just picked up our new camper trailer and it dropped the rear a shit load. I was thinking I might need some airbags.
G'Day Nath, No I haven't added bags to mine...from what I can work out its not really an option to bag the Raptors, due to the coil over shocks. What you can do for the Raptor is change the actual spring itself (works out a fair bit cheaper than bags too i think) My camper has a fairly low ball weight, but it still makes a big difference. Changing the spring rate is the next thing on my to do list.
Well out mate! Yeah I always drop my pressures even though my mates all shake their heads. Also auto and traction control off makes all of these newer high power dual cabs unstoppable! Great videos, subbed!
What tyre pressures were you on...
0:20 cmon man your tough! 😂
Just found your videos today. Got the Raptor November last Year so i'll ask about the recall on my 15k service i never got a letter though. I was surprised it got stuck until I saw the tyre pressure. That will get you every time. If you ever do any trips to w.a let me know i'm out in one place or another as often as I can be. I've got a little video i made up last year of some dunes on my channel. I'm interested in knowing what media you use for your recording like your drone and camera and stuff. I'd also be interested in your camping setup and gear you reccomend too if your intersted in making something like that. I did Perth to Darwin in 16 days last year but as it was just me and the other half I didn't need a trailer but now i'm looking into one. Subscribed today looking forward to more content
Cheers Brett, Planning on some trips in WA in the future once the kids get a bit better at long drives, I watched your video when It first came out 👍🏻 I think we must have got our Raptors around the same time. Nice colour 😎
Nice one Damo!
Cheers Mate 👍🏻🍺
RANGER RAPTOR - Stuck In Sand ........ bogged by Damo🤣🤣
Haha good stuff👌 I bet the ole Leyland brothers wouldn’t have minded 4 of those max trax when bogged over the years. Hurry up with the rest of the video will ya😆
G’day Chriso 👍🏻 Yeah the old set of recovery tracks work a treat. It’s the first time I’ve ever carried 4. Usually get by with 2 just fine and no trailer...what worked better than the recovery tracks was the beer fridge...fairly hot up there needed a cold one after all that digging 🍺
😂 I’m slowly chipping away at the main video mate. Had a few blokes pull the pin at work so I’ve been running 13-14h nights...need another bloody holiday 😎
Round The Fire work hard play hard mate - you’ll have enough to buy another Raptor doin those sorta hours🤣 yeah our mob is pushing hard for end of year results, push push push.
She looks great the big girl, bet ya that trailer was worth it’s weight in gold apart from gettin it through a few tough sections👍
😂😂 I’ll keep working to pay this one off first...Trailer was handy, will need to make a few mods to it so she tows in track with the wider stance of the Raptor but overall worked out a perfect spot to carry all the extra cartons 🍺
good stuff...well done
Thanks mate 👍🏻
Beautiful pick up truck!!! nice color and wheels.... I thought these type of tires were designed for sand surfaces...glad you made it throught. Greetings from Lima, Peru. south america.. I did suscribed, great content.
Thank you and welcome 👍🏻 yes these tyres are great in the sand, this 1 particular time I was just going too slow for the conditions
@@RoundTheFire I understand, perfet!
I would like to see a video about Before and after a Wash... washing your muddy ford ranger before and after...that would be very satisfying,
@ 1:38 you said the wises words there are in 4x4. "This is how you learn". Every trip is different with new challanges and with every challange you up your skills and learn your vehicle more...
Exactly right mate 👍🏻😎🍺
I can hear a blow off valve. Can you tell me about it plz, causet he sound is amazing.
Good stuff. I love it. Love u too
Cheers mate.
Good job on the self recovery. What was the air pressure you were running?
G’day mate, thanks for the comment 👍🏻 tyres were at about 24psi at that stage.
Was it bc of the trailer? I never seen a Raptor get stuck in sand, Ive see them go through alot worse. Im assuming the drag and tongue weight has something to do with it. Was this expected of any truck in this area or is this a flaw int he Raptor? Im genuinely asking and curious. I own a 3.2l Everest 4x4 and that thing has climbed out of some really sketchy places.
G'day Alex, Good observation and great comment...The drag of the trailer was the main cause, followed closely by lack of initial momentum.
how much psi was in your tyres?.did you lower the psi level
Gday mate, I had only dropped them to 24PSI, still way to high for how soft it was at the bend.
Super dry sand is tough!
G’day Craig, definitely mate, middle of the day, nice and hot makes for hard going. I underestimated That little section and approached it with a bit less momentum than I should have. All good fun 👍🏻
Indeed
One of the best things to have in any off-road truck is a good air pump or simply a Neutrogen filled bottle.
Then you can drop the air pressure and then add air again depending on the conditions.
Driving in sand is like driving in snow. If you deflate the tires, you both can traction and spread the weight of the vehicle over a larger conntact area ( = softer footprint of each wheel. If that makes scene )
One of the issues with modern trucks is the size of there front brakes. So now you can't use smaller then 17" wheels instead of like 15" back in the day. So in return you have to accept lower profile tires that don't deflate as well (or as useful ) as the bigger profile tires. Bigger profile is always better when doing real off roading. Not Raptor rallying.
I personally drive my Trooper that has 32" tire ( BF all terrain ) on a 15"wheel. With tire pressure between 12-15psi as standard everytime I drive off- road. ( also to causion the ride, because it's front suspension is not good dealing rough washboard like roads.)
And if I have to deal with snow or soft sand I take it down to between 3-10 psi. The true magic is between 3-5 psi.
Gday Einar, Thanks for the great comment Mate. I do carry an air compressor for exactly the reasons you mentioned above. Thank you for sharing.
What did you do with the 3rd brake light and antenna? I couldn't see them when you went up for the Maxtrax.
All still there mate, in the original positions.
@@RoundTheFire can the antenna be fold flat? I was thinking of a roof top tent. But it would be partly hanging over the cabin.
The Antenna is a screw in on a fixed mount. It's short and flexible enough that you can bend it to sit flush under the roof rack if you need. Ive gone the opposite way and bent it to feed up and through the roof rack.
@@RoundTheFire OK, good to hear. I will most likely just screw it off. Not many radio stations here anyway.
How's the fuel economy. Notice any changes after the power chip and throttle response mod? Rumours here in Europe are to ban diesel from cities. Or better said, they are just preparing justifications to raise more tax income by raising prices.
Go the maxtrax! Good effort mate!
Expensive to buy - worth their weight in gold when you need them 👍🏻😎🇦🇺
When are we gonna see some more videos on your trailer build!!? 👍🏻
Coming soon mate. Got the water tank and auxiliary lighting installs coming soon.
Beauty, Just saw your IG post. She looks good mate 👍🏻
Damo... mate.... about time. Was beginning to think u got bogged somewhere never to return, but then u have a raptor. Lmao... had to take mine out to goos family farm while u were away.. thanks for that hahaha
😂 I wish I was still out there!! 👍🏻, that’s the go, get amongst it. I’m planning on doing the rounds of the BNE 4x4 parks in the near future, how did you find the Goos? 😎
@@RoundTheFire hey damo, yer i enjoyed goos, its relaxing its not overly technical(and i'm not saying its easy lol), like when u got a new 4x4, you kinda don't wanna run over some crazy shit to find out what its capable of, goos, is a nice step in the "capability" direction, even got bellied out..( was watching a triton try to get out, so i had to do it damo... i HAD to do it lol), by the end of the day, missus took her 1st attempt off road there... she had that grin like an anti gun person who just found the happy switch for the 1st time haha... winner in my books... other than that.... since u were away so dam long haha, done old chesterfield road, smashed it. been to bribie for a day, smashed it, jumped it, tbh, 2wd most of the time on bribie... had a bit of fun out imbil forestry....
I lower the pounds of the tires to 9 psi back 12 psi forward, because of the weight of the engine. depending on the covers, I see that you have placed bf goodritch, you will not have problems when lowering the pounds. In the sand there are no problems with covers with few pounds. change the off road completely by lowering pounds ...
Hi. I have a question. Does your Ranger Raptor got any problem? Some trucks with 2.0L in Thailand got problems like engine oil consuming, engine oil leak that brokedown the alternator.
Wow that’s interesting about the oil leak? The alternator is top mounted. I haven’t heard of anything problems like this happening in Australia 🇦🇺
@@RoundTheFire The front differential oil vapor drain hose is too short, the oil is drained into the alternator. Did your dealer fixed this? I think this problem is only in the first lot.
I looked into this problem, we had a recall on our Raptors here in Australia, there was too much oil in the front differential causing flash back through the diff breathers. I made a video on this a while back 👍🏻😎🇦🇺
Such a cool truck
Champion 😎👍🏻🇦🇺
@@RoundTheFire I really want these trucks to come to the u.s
Word on the street is you guys will be getting the Ranger Raptor in 2020?? I’m hoping they get released in the USA 🇺🇸 too, I can’t wait to see what aftermarket accessories will come from the states 👍🏻
@@RoundTheFire hell yeah!!
I don't know about sand but in muddy UK I tie maxtracks to back of truck and drag them after me so I don't have to go back for them. Nice clip mate
Paul, Very interesting idea...sounds like something I wouldn't mind giving a go. Cheers mate.
@@RoundTheFire I'm only a novice compared to you. But old army bloke showed me. Cheers
Solid Advice, but I guess you are not towing a trailer?
@@BravoFox27 tricky one I know. Never with trailer. Maybe tie to rear of trailer but that is awkward.
The tyres dont look too deflated. What were they? 16-20 psi? 10psi you would probably have just driven out. It's amazing the difference 10psi makes.
Exactly mate. The tyres were still up at 26PSI all dirt before this sandy section. Dropped them to 18psi on the way out, no dramas, straight through. 😎👍🏻🇦🇺
I would have had them at 5 psi all round, it works a treat in the sand, you will never get bogged, ever. I have done 5 x paris to Dakar races so I know my shit
Tie some bright colorfull ropey material to trax makes it easier to find and pull them out :-)
Gday Drew, Solid advice mate, I actually have the straps that come with the trax and as usual I put them in a REALLY safe place...so safe I can’t find where I put them 😂...at least they won’t get lost...😂
Been there done that (well once anyway 😁) Best place for it is on the trax but hindsight is always good lol
😎🍺🇦🇺🤙🏻
Man your loaded up on the trailer drop some psi and you should be right about 12 should get you out
What were you running pressure wise ???
It was a fair while ago, I think at this time I was at about 24PSI on the truck? It was day 8 of the trip and this was the last 100m section of the track before camp.
Slim , prolly been down that track in his old purple Ford 😅
😂👍🏻🍺
Ignore the keyboard warriors champ. You're videos are awesome
Cheers for the comment Kris, All good fun mate 😎👍🏻🍺
@@RoundTheFire
Wish I could have half the fun you have mate. Too bad the wife wanted a rav4.
That's why I enjoy ya videos. Keep it up champ. You got another sub.👍
Well you know what that means...when it’s time to upgrade it’s your pick 😁 thanks for the Sub, welcome on the team 😎👍🏻
@@RoundTheFire
Lol cheers mate
If you are driving in the sand, lower the air in the Tyers to 15 or less and should use special or soft tiers
My dad also had a Ranger raptor but for sand, he usually puts the tires down to around 18 PSI. And plus, the Ranger raptor already comes with 285/33" BF Goodrich tires which was specifically designed for the Ranger raptor
wft how many kilo are you bring on the trailer
About 1500kilos. 👍🏻
Hey dude, was wondering when your next video will be uploaded. I had the same issue in the dessert dude and the air in the tire was probably to much, same as mine first time. The engine is really a bit weak for this job but she made it with your experience. Looking for more updates. How is your plan, how will be the next few weeks??? Cheers mate. 🍻🇩🇪🤙🤙🤙
G’day Mate, Yes I made the mistake of too slow, wrong gear choice from the start. Still we got the job done ✅I’m working on the main video now lots of footage to sort through. I’ll hopefully be putting up little teasers like this one as I keep working on the main video. 👍🏻😎🇦🇺
@@RoundTheFire I wait for every video from your adventure. I'm one of your number one fan mate. 😂 Shout out next video. 😂😂👏🤙🇦🇺🇩🇪🤙
I’ll see what I can do mate. You want me to shout out to Dan or to DailyLife? 🤙🏻
@@RoundTheFire Danny is enough mate. Do you use Instagram too? How long will be your Tripp bro?
Dan, yes I have Instagram too.
@Round.The.Fire
The trip is already done now, 3 weeks travelling 👍🏻
How much load were you towing?
Close enough to 1 1/2 ton in the trailer plus fully loaded truck. Main fault was that the tyre pressures were too high. Camp for the night was 100m past that bend so I tried to run the gauntlet.
wow nice :D
Thanks mate 👍🏻
Any air filter changes? I have a bi turbo but I swear mine doesn't flutter like that !
Still got the OEM filters in mate, I’ll change to K&N as soon as they have something. The DP Chip and Throttle controller add a fair bit of boot.
@@RoundTheFire they do have a k&n filter! I got mine about 2 weeks ago. Defiantly might try the chip
Oh snap, thanks for letting me know!! 😎👍🏻
I am wondering how had the Frontier do on the same conditions
Nooooo this test Is really hard for any truck ...
What is the tire pressure front and rear ?
Beat me to it ;)
They look full LOL
G’day Mate, I was running the tyres at 26PSI at the time. Was definitely too high for how hot/soft the sand was. That 100m section snuck up on me. All good fun 👍🏻😎🇦🇺
Probably want to go 15-18psi max
@@RoundTheFire those big tyres dont even start bagging out till around 16 psi. Also if your doing sand trips leave the trailer at home
What was your tyre pressure here?
About 24psi on that day.
Hey mate im assuming by the look of the tyres you didnt let down much or any tyre pressure ?? Should of gotten through that alot easier but then again hard to judge the sand in video. Dry soft sand can be a bloody nightmare.
Im from w.a so had my fair share of it. Im looking to upgrade and was gonna get a y62 v8 patrol for power to pull a small off road camoer trailer just abit bigger than the one u got on. But was hoping with a few mods like exhaust intercooler egr delte airbox exhaust and dyno tune i could get a raptor and save a bunch in fuel economy
Cant decide
Exactly right mate, I think from memory I was at about 22-24PSi could have gone way lower but it was only a very short section of sand on what was otherwise a solid stretch of track. Momentum was the key, I was only walking it through...you will definitely be able to tune up the Y62 for more pulling power than the Raptor and the Patrol will 💯% give you more cabin room depending on the size of your family needs? I’m very happy with the Raptor, my situation required me to transition from a wagon to a Ute because of my dog. Hard decision 🤔 If cabin space and bigger tow is needed Patrol is definitely the way to go. If you travel fairly light (under 5.5T combo) then have a good think about the Raptor 👍🏻
@@RoundTheFire yeh yhats what i was thinking maybe down to 18psi or 16psi u couldnt really tell plus with camper u dont wanna smash it around the track without knowing it well. Specially NT there is not alot of help if shit goes bad
I what the big y62 patrol but not keen on fuel.bill im using a big Ute now so use to it and like it better but power is what im after
Im not pulling have max 1 tonne or just over for offroad camper trailer. I would do some.upgrades to raptor if i got it
I normally start at 18...by this stage we were about day 8 or 9 of the trip and I was getting a bit lazy to adjust the tyre pressure. If you are only pulling about a ton then no dramas with the Raptor. My trailer is 1.5T all I’ve done is add a DP chip to bump it up to 185Kw. Easily pulls along at 130ks sitting on 1600rpm using 13.5L/100, still plenty left to overtake road trains without a run at it.
@@RoundTheFire hahaha yep 100% know that feeling ur experienced then that will take it out of anyone
Brother are you change home?
If you know the FORD RANGER very well, it may have lost power due to LIMP MODE. Once its in that mode you need to visit the workshop asap #From experience
Nice one Damo. How has the raptor preformed other wise. Do you have front lockers aswell 😎
G’day Phil, The Raptor goes really good mate, very happy with it so far. No front locker installed, just the factory rear e-locker. 👍🏻
The car isn't out yet here in Europe or at least in my country and you have yours and already fckd it up! ahahahah :D nice video!!! how's that engine, everyone says it's weak!
I have had my Ranger Raptor here in Australia 🇦🇺 for 1 year now. I’ve definitely given it a fair go on just about every type of terrain...sometimes it doesn’t go quite to plan 😂 As for the engine, I’m very happy with it. I have added a DP Chip which brings the power up to where I personally think the engine should have come standard from the factory. All in all I think the real magic happens from the 10 speed gearbox 👍🏻😎
@@RoundTheFire does it ruins factory guarantee when u add that chip? It must be that specific one or there are more, saw the video!👏👏 Super easy to install , strange why it doesn't come from factory or how easy it would be to add that power from origin.
The color is amazing! Love hi natural ur videos are!!👏👏 Greetings from 🇵🇹
It would not be hard for Ford to add the power from the factory, but I’m sure they have their reasons?? 🤔 By adding a chip to your engine you will most likely void your warranty for the engine and drive line. The reason I have chosen the DP Chip is they provide warranty on the engine and drive line should there be a problem, also their business has been around for as long as I can remember in Australia, very well respected company. 👍🏻
Nice job mate. Maybe your mates should have offered you a snatch...
A beer would have been nice 👍🏻
Nothing like the sound of an underpowered Ford in the wilderness .
Some people learn slow and some don’t learn at all
can you still get into car parks with the rhino rack on the roof?
Sure can Mate, even with the rack loaded with tools I can still fit into 2.3m clearance underground parks. Haven’t tried lower than that yet. 👍🏻
Round The Fire sweet I’m still waiting on my raptor tobe delivered but most of the car parks around me are 1.95m and 2.1m, and I’m thinking of doing a similar rack system on the roof
Standard roof height is 1.87 so you might “just” fit into a 2.1 with the rack on. The back bone mounts are the lowest profile you can get.
@@RoundTheFire I just clear carparks at 1.9m
@@powderskier5547 Champion! As always mate, greatly appreciated for the info.
Nice job. Doesn't look hot or dry there at all. 😁
😂😂 Thanks Jim, was it the fact that I had to keep shaking hot sand out of my thongs that gave it away? 👍🏻
@@RoundTheFire I live in Minnesota (in the U.S.) and we had snow last week and this weekend it's 70.😜
Well in that case G’day from Downunder. My wife is from CA 🇺🇸. At the time of filling this clip the needle was pushing 100’F
The only problem with Maxx trax, finding them in the sand after your out. 👍
😁👍🏻
Just here to see what the engineers from the comment section think he should have done better.
🤣🤣 Zac This is the best comment I’ve ever seen, CHAMPION 👌🏼
@@RoundTheFire 😂😂.. Thanks m8.
Lol clearly running road pressures you can tell when its bouncing around on the second use of the tracks and spinning/jumping. Lower tyre pressures would just easily crawl that at 15psi or lower. Also lowering pressures on the trailer is overlooked often and makes a massive difference.
All the tyre pressures were down to 20 psi, I watched 6 different vehicles go through there before hand and only 1 made it through without getting bogged. 🤔
Round The Fire ah fair enough it looks so bouncy like road pressures. That trailer is likely pretty heavy tho and that type of sand is so silty. I have to run 10-15psi on my patrol with muddies to toe through sand like that and float on top
@@Snook_ Mate, when i first looked at it, I definitely though I could have walked through it no drama. I put the rear diff lock in on the second run off the trax which I think was causing the jump going round the bend. Dont get much bag out of the 285/70/17 until i get under 16psi which may have been the problem...that or the fact that the camp site was only 20m around that bend on the beach and I was ready for another beer!!
Having fun dragging a plow behind.
😂 Yeah all fun and games with a trailer in the soft stuff. Definitely need to look at widening the wheel track on the trailer to match the Raptor. 👍🏻😎
Nothing worse then getting caught out into the soft stuff.
I run 12-15psi in the wifes everest and only in lo 2nd or lo 3rd on harder sand.
If i have a trailer on i run 3psi higher in the rear then the front and the trailer tyres are the same as the rear tyres.
I'd prefer drop pressures first before grabbing the traxx out only coz it's abit easier on the car once your moving again. Atleast you didn't bury it once bogged like most folks haha.
Hope you're having fun Damo.
G'day Damo, Great comment mate, just the sort of thing I like to see up on the channel, good constructive information for the guys watching that maybe haven't had too much experience off road. Bloody legend, thanks mate...Oh and I wouldn't expect much less from a bloke with a name like Aussie Damo, champion.
price ?
AUD$80k
To be honest I find low range digs in a lot more in soft conditions like that. Do similar driving on holiday in Mozambique so really soft warm sand and high range with 15-18psi tyre pressures and that works very well even when towing. Traction control needs to be off in those conditions as well otherwise you bog down
Deep sandy mood??
My Subaru outback handles sand like that. Just air down to 20 and no worries.
sir, excuse me? how is she?
Where the sand mode in raptor 4x4?
G’day Mate, The Ranger Raptor has a terrain management system built in. You can change the onboard computer using the ‘mode’ switch on the steering wheel 😎
@@RoundTheFire why in the video raptor get stuck on sand meanwhile the truck have the mode sand to helped the raptor go out from stuck in the sand?
@@archuleta8921 The driving mode will not do all the work, it is still possible to get stuck. The truck still needs help from the driver.
Sand mode or whatever is no substitute for not letting you tyres down.
Good video, the Raptors could do with some more power. On their own they are ok but struggle towing
Think you need to get rid of that child’s shovel and get a proper one, feel sorry for ya mate
Subscribed!
Your load is too heavy and the sand is too loose. It's not on the Raptor. Lower your tire pressure or change type of tire.
Tire pressure too hi mate lol
Put a 3.2engine on that big monster with twin turbo, and that monster became trully a monster.
O my friend ! Did you reduced the tayers pressure??? What the air pressure was??
G’day Mate, exactly right tyre pressure was still too high for sand 👍🏻😎🇦🇺
He didn't use mud/sand mode....
That's the worst thing to get stuck in. The truck by itself would have gone through it, with the trailer makes to much drag. Keep on trucking cool plates for putting under the tires.
💯% there mate. Trailers are big sand anchors. Maxtrax are a handy bit of gear for exactly this type of situation, not cheap, but saves a ton of shovel work. 👍🏻😎🇦🇺
This 2.0engine is very stress to pull that heavy load. The bi turbo is useless on heavy load.
Dont think the 2.0 is any issue.
Has plenty of power where it needs it.
Poor little 2.0 engine she's working hard
Mate she definitely got the revs up by the end of it. Had it locked into 2nd gear low range And a fair bit of right boot for the last pull through 👍🏻😎🇦🇺
*it's
Wrong tyre pressure will get you know where mate
You can put as many stickers on it as you want but its still gonna be just a Ford ranger lol
It's entirely different. Go and test drive one
Nice gear very nice car, but you got to learn a lot, which is ok of course, we all went through that period. Have fun!
I thought the Raptor only came with Gasoline engine?
In Australia 🇦🇺 they only come with 2.0L, 4 cylinder, Bi-Turbo Diesel.
the badly designed engine only have around 300 rpm of usable torque and soo many gears to make up for it so 2nd gear low will not work .I will take 3.2 any day or even old 2.2.
3.2 has the identical peak torque bracket as the Raptor 2.0 but 10Kw less max power output...using more fuel to achieve a lesser result??
Make psi tires 10
I thought ranger raptor has a baja mode
The Raptor definitely has a Baja mode. I was having a play with the different modes throughout the trip. I was using mud/sand mode here as more of a work mode while pulling a trailer. I used BAJA mode later in the trip without the trailer attached = unstoppable 😎👍🏻
Sounds like a tractor. Not a pickup truck haha
Solution; get a taco!!!
put it in BA HA mode so it laughs when ya about to get stuck
Your good, you have equipment.
But... you have many loads to pull.
And not easy for the car doing this.
And also you have to much pressure in tires. Take some air out , and you will see you go better.
A cara e muito rui na hora que o carro atola mais têm. Mais avetura
Why not use sand mode...
G’day Mate, I had the Mud/Sand mode on. Just didn’t give it enough right boot to start with...didn’t seem that soft/deep when I walked it. 👍🏻😎🇦🇺
Haha!!! Honestly my man, that was painful to watch. Digging up the entire track. You need to learn about Tyre pressures.
basics really all cars no matter what they are get bogged because driver is a muppet, put straps on your treads and lower your tps simples,and put some proper fucking shoes on lol
I love hilux
Tire air should be reduced to 15 psi
Exactly right, tyre pressure was still too high 👍🏻🇦🇺
@@RoundTheFire
I wish you have a good time
Ha
ถ้าตัวรถหนักจะไม่เป็นแบบนี้ครับ น่าจะเอาของใส่หลังรถให้เยอะกว่านี้หน่อย
Your ranger raptor engine sound too loud my friend , ranger raptor in the USA engines is super quit. Sounds like your engine is going to blow up. .
jason vue we don’t have the 2.0L diesel in the US nor do we have the Ranger Raptor.
AUSSIES ONLY GET 2.0 LITRE DIESEL WITH TWIN TURBOS AND THIS IS A GREAT ENGINE
Decrease the tire pressure
Watch how they drive in Dubai dessert
The only car is an Amarok🙌🙌 the rest is bullkak😭😭
A wild track or hilux or xlt limited to tow..... the raptor isnt that great at towing its much more capable of doing just about anything else the best but not towing
You’re alright, not great, but alright.
