- The pick-up truck has gone from being exclusively used by farmers and small business owners, to a lifestyle vehicle used by families who want a tough off-roader for some weekend adventures.
Racing driver Vicki Butler-Henderson, Millennial motoring journo Rachael Hogg, and mum Erin Baker (REV!) are testing three of the UK's most popular pick-ups - the Toyota Hilux, Mitsubishi L200 and Ford Ranger - based on how people search for them at Auto Trader.
They're looking at how easily they can fit into your lifestyle, covering practicality, connectivity, and ride and handling.

Reviews like this one are very important because they force manufacturers to constantly raise the bar in terms of quality and refinement. Trucks used to be basic and simple, workhorses designed for professionals. Today, however, half of the people buying a pickup do so as a viable alternative to a family SUV. That’s a good thing. Those of us who really do need the robust capabilities that these vehicles have to offer use a different set of criteria in our evaluation of pickup trucks -but that doesn’t mean we don’t welcome or appreciate the advancements in technology and refinement. No, of course not; in fact, they make our life easier. So before you macho guys get all worked up about how women evaluate your toys, just remember that now your toys are even better thanks to them!
Mr Benedick... you sir or sir-ess or whatever are a total tit. Been a long time since I read such shite.
I must admit, from the language, content -and writing skills - it’s quite obvious that the two people who replied to my comment have a low IQ. All I can say is that they should pay more attention to what I said and spare the world their stupidity. We have enough problems as is.
you want it to be tought and robust but you want it to be refined and fill with advance technologies ?
it's a basic simple workhorse and those are the reasons for it's success all over the world and probably the reason why people like you buy it in the first place but now you want it to become just another suv ?
have you thought that if they make the vehicule you just discribe it will cost more, will not be as simple, basic, the workhorse that people need it to be ?
if you look closely to all models of toyota, i'm pretty sure that you will find your perfect suv, why do you want this last of his specie to become just another SUV, another one, really ? aren't there enough already of suv out there for you and your family ?
it's not about being a macho or not, and no our toys aren't better thanks to them instead they are not fill with tons of gadgets no one need, which break all the time, and cost a fortune to buy and repair.
with all due respect i am capable of...please women, keep yourselves away from our toys...we like them basic, simple, easy to use and repair, with no advance technology and refinement and cheap to buy.
There are multiple types of pickups, some are cheap good workhorses, some are truck looking cars with extreme pricetags, if you want a car with a bed buy a car with a bed, if you want a pickup buy a pickup, what you are describing is a suv with a bed. All those "fancy" "luxurious" addons just pumps up the price. These days you can't get a decent cheap pickup without the "extras" that push the price up. I don't think they add to the value of the truck, i don't need apple car play or gps or soft linings, fancy enterior. I want High torq, good durability, preferably decent fuel economy and a bed to hold construction materials or my motorcycle. Finally i want it cheap, able to tear trough the heavy snow, and stay on the road.
you all probably dont care but does someone know a way to get back into an Instagram account..?
I was stupid forgot the account password. I would love any tips you can offer me.
They failed to mention that the L200 is the only truck that has super select, wins hands down as a proper 4x4
Love these REV tests. Hoping for more
Thank you for the review ladies. Have owned a Mitsubishi Triton diesel pick-up for 5 years since new and used in Thailand for everything from transporting bales of hay piled high, to truly testing the springs delivering boxes of booze, and also for family holidays with inside comfort for 5. Has stood the test of time and still looking good.
Would love to see a sales comparison for these pick-ups over the years in the different markets. Including Mazda BT-50, Nissan Frontier, etc. Pretty sure the Hilux may be way out front
I have a Mitsubishi l200 for 13 months now and love it. They reported that it only has apple car play with no android auto. Well i can report that is not true android auto works well on mine.
Do you recommend M L200,? That it will be my first pick up.
Good report, although UK Spec Truck’s have the lower power trains. I have tested all three recently in Oz, and the Ranger especially in the new 2 litre twin turbo diesel is a a delight and quick. The Raptor developed by Ford Performance is a game changer, plus it has a shed load of extra tech and grunt.
Great Video Comparsion. The Mitsubishi L200 Is a Award Winner and the Ford Ranger and Toyota Hilux are huge!y popular as well
Lol the L200 is not that great so e say u can't even call it a pickuo
Glad to see you guys across the pond seeing why us Yanks love us a Pick up truck
So where were the stetsons and spurs 😁 I do like Erin’s Le Mans jacket though. I think the Dallas style split screen works quite well and it was interesting to have each intro before the drive rather than all together at the start. I missed the rotating rodeo this week though as it gave room for three different takes on each area of the car (it didn’t matter to me you scripted for each other it made it easy for you to each add your own comment/flair on the different aspects of the car and if you wanted to in the future politely disagree or express personal preferences etc in a humorous way) Keep up the great work 👍
Mini Eggs :-) best youtube name... love it.
Ranger all the way. On my second now. Brilliant for family and work. Just need to win the lottery now so i can have the new uk Raptor 47 k . Wow
nope
Ranger after 2015 its a byg error pick up
The Mitzi is by far the best ute for value for money, very popular here in Australia.
I love all pick-up trucks but I love Toyota Hilux
Hilux:👍
Mitsubishi and Ford: comment.
Hilux is the best lady’s forever
REV videos are good for the soul. Pick-ups, on the other hand, are good for distributing bales of hay to sheep and very little else. Young lads entering the building trade will buy a pick-up and then, 6 months later, swap it for a van.
Myself and my wife use ours for doging in and we find the load area in the back very useful for when she is getting back scuttled mind you it’ looks very uncomfortable, and you need a tall dude to reach the nether regions if he’s not on tippy toes, so in closing steer clear of the Ford for dogging it’s way too high, especially if you want to deliver a full load
Somewhere in The United States of America a man is puzzled by what he just read...
😂🤣😂🤣
🤣🤣🤣👍
Drove the 6 Speed Manual L200 last weekend for about 500km from a city to another with a single pump of fuel.. I must say that it is damn good at overtaking and handles very well on corners and bumpy roads.. What i love the most about the L200 is the power, fuel economy and sound proofing. Going at 160kmh at only 3000 rpm.. I'm in love!
Y have L 200 X Storm , 2012 full , with no problem at 89.000km , its fantastic evry day , end y have the confidence evry were i go , in this pick up
I’ve got a 2016 barbarian. You have to admit they are slow off the mark 😂 they are a truck though so it’s okay. The throttle/turbo lag could be measured in minutes hahaha
Lovely Rach! Hilux all the way
The Ranger just came back to the US this year. I've owned 2 of them in the 90s. Great little trucks.
Not now , after 2015 -2017 , the Ford Ranger its , worst pick up ever
I only knew the ranger existed... no idea about the others... where in the world are theses sold?
Sir, I do not
leave in UK, is there a land rover option at same level? Defender? I want to know the diferences?
Coming from New Zealand, it sounds icky calling these things pickups, because we call them utes, or utility vehicles. As I understand it, these started out in the 60s as cars with a load tray whacked on the back, as opposed to a pickup, which was a small truck frame.
Great review as always, having said that 👍❤️
Ehhh, I think the pickup started in the 20s. Maybe a modified Model T. I believe Ford started building these in Australia in the 30s, yes called utility vehicles.
The 2019 Ranger, which was released in early September, several weeks before this video, does now have soft assist rear tailgate opening.
Johnny G something the L200’s has for like 3 years...
@@JackChapmanBMWI've never driven the Triton (your UK L200) but nice to know they got that wrong too in the video.
Ranger's are shit
Why just those three? What about the Navara? It's quicker than it's rivals and looks good!
Well done ladies. Better then the men doing reviews. I love the Ranger, it really is batmans wheels.
What do you three no about pickups
None of these are available in the US. We are supposed to get the Ford Ranger in 2019, we have the Toyota but it's called the Tacoma and very different from the other parts of the world. And the Mitsubishi does not sell in the United States any pick up trucks. Toyota isn't not offered with diesel engines yet, because we prefer gasoline engines. However I believe the Ranger will have a diesel option
The reality of the rest of the world is not lived in the USA, high taxes, fuel 2 to 3 times more expensive, high insurance prices, among a couple of etc. having an American model pick-up is completely unfeasible for the reality of many, here in Uruguay you can buy any model of the American market, but it only comes by order and for a value not less than 100 thousand US dollars ... you can imagine the costs to keep a vehicle like that, or do you work to maintain your life or your car !!!
DanceManiaco the USA is the best country in the world. I wish I could live there man. Here in U.K. people think a 2.5 diesel is beefy 😂😂😂
Good to see three lovely ladies doing a test ,look forward to more.
Great report again ladies. .I'll take the Ranger thanks. .
Mitsubishi the best at gearbox,handling ,technology
All in all i think that was quite a honest review from the girls.. And in saying that it would of been nice to hear each diesel pickup switch on and left running to get an impression or find out what was the smoothest running diesel over all !!.
Mitsubishi L200 is better out the lot of them..i would never pay that price for any car truck i will stick to the second hand market.i have a 2007 l200 animal and i love it not had one problem with it :-)
I want the Ford ranger and the back space is for my plastering tools
Toyota hilux number one,number 2 L200 !!!
i like triton
The Ranger in Europe is about a 12 year old truck . The Ranger has not been built in the States for years . There a New Ranger coming out in the States . I am not a Truck person .I am a American living in Europe and a car nut . I watch a lot Auto News. Oh and Jeep is coming out with a New Truck too .
I don’t know anyone that just goes for the invincible when you can get the invincible X
Yes!!
I didn't know this was a mums review title should explain
If you want a smooth, comfortable, SUV-like pick-up, the RAM 1500 is the only way to go... It's now the most popular pick-up in Western Europe, but too bad the U.K. doesn't get them because RAM doesn't want to make right-hand drive vehicles (only the 2500 for Australia, but you can't drive those on a regular car license in Europe.
The RAM has a very smooth gasoline V8, which always feels more refined, and a good, ZF 8 speed torque converter. Plenty of room, and there's still the workhorse-side (which no one uses), in case you need it, as well as a V6 diesel for companies/commercial use. Extremely low on taxes because it's a pick-up (it's still a 2,6 ton vehicle with a V8, only €150/year in Belgium) and probably cheaper to run than these in the video if you get the autogas (LPG) BiFuel option.
If you want a more practical, work-oriented vehicle that's gonna get dirty every now and then, those in the video are very good. I don't really like the Mistusbishi (they always looked strange), especially now that Fiat sells the exact same vehicle... I'd go for the Hilux, kinda looks like a traditional Land Cruiser
No body would by them here in the UK due to the engine size. The fuel prices in the UK are horrendous, due to our greedy, untrustworthy fat, old people in government. TAX TAX TAX Everything, everyone to breaking point.
@@tounovtwin Same in Belgium. The 5.7 V8 comes in a bunch of different cars: Jeeps (Grand Cherokee etc), Dodges, Chryslers, ... but no one would get them in a passenger car, they'd be like €4.000 a year just in road taxes. Even the 3.6 V6 would still be like €2.000. That's a ridiculous amount of money, or at least it is to me.
However, since it's a pickup, you can avoid all of that. I believe the UK has some sort of flat rate for pick-ups as well, but not sure.
Run it on lpg (which is also quite a bit more expensive in the UK), and it's way more affordable.
Gasoline 95, 10% ethanol is currently €1,200/l where I live (107£p), 98 is €1,305/l (117p), autogas is around €0,420/l (38p).
Rik Wes so true
Mitsubishi Triton is number one if going for offroad rally long distance race, number two Ford ranger third Toyota Hilux
All 3 pick ups fail where can i place my make up!
It's a commercial vehicle lol what do you want
VBH😍😍😍😍😍
It's a shame you ladies dont know the new hilux is not actually that reliable thesedays.
Fuck off you ranger lover
What ever mate ford has a shit reputation for all most all the cars they build, so why would you get a ranger. Hahahahahahahahahah 😂😂
@@bignateaussie8123 just because it works over there doesn't mean it works over here. They're well within their rights to be suspicious, especially with the likes of yourself. No wonder Australia's reputation seems to be sour...
Sour haha, the only person that is SOUR is u because u know I'm right
Big D Nate Aussie look mate the Hilux use to be tough now it’s be let down why? Because how are they gonna make something that’s built Unbreakable nowadays when they have to make sale numbers, you’re not gonna like this same as everyone else but the hilux is incredibly known to almost roll over failing the moose test from 2008-2017 that’s pathetic, and is also know to stick in gears. Numbers show it’s not as good as it use to be not been number 1 selling duel cab Ute for years
Give the a 79 series Landcruiser, a 4.5 v8 turbo diesel from Australia and then tell me that the Hilux is still better
Anything at all about costs? Road tax, miles per gallon, insurance. I want one, but what is it going to cost me? Can I afford it?
They always stick the bloke in the back of the cars hahaha
Didn't Heard Vicky for a long time ,missed her
Nice vedio.👍👍
Thanks❤
So many things wrong with this. A small person telling me that the rear is roomy? Great. Is there enough space for three workers wearing high visibility jackets and steel toe boots? Are the buttons easy to use whilst wearing safety gloves? Does the screen work with gloves? Is there enough headroom to wear a safety helmet? How wide is the rear, will three workers fit? Can I fit a standard pallet? Is the leather or fabric durable?
This review didn't address anything that matters to someone buying one of these
Five of us... HI vis jackets and pants, lot of clothes underneath because of winter in Norway in the new mitsubishi L200. NO SPACE AT ALL
Truck is small inside, very cramped, seats are small, overall the worst 1,5 hours of driving to get to the working site, not to mention our backpacks with spare clothes and lunch had to be in a back trunk with the dirty tools and equipment
3 ladies imposing a feminist agenda on us lol ,
@@zarkokamber3602 exactly! This is how these trucks are meant to be used!
Also can these three workers in their toe steeled cap boots still bum each other after work?
lol I imagine these 3 ladies in the video bumming each other with cucumbers lol 😂😂😂
A real farmer would not want Automatic but would take the 6 speed manual
A real farmer would buy a Cummins V12 diesel Dodge Ram , most reliable off road pickup ever
I would still want a raptor or any of these
The Ford Ranger Raptor is coming for 2019 so start filling your piggy bank
the Ford Ranger Black Edition looks porn...
L200
Toyota Hilux 💪👍
I like hilux
Mid range vs mid range vs top spec, yes well done. smh.
Why no Amarok?
The criteria for picking the vehicles is for the most searched for models on Auto Trader.
or Ford Raptor?
Not really saying much about running costs or reliability ? Have you got any trade mechanics reviews
4 Years witha Series 5 L200 125K Miles I cannot wait to see the back of it poor quality finish dated interior too many problems to mention and the series 6 is a joke the only good thing is the super select 4WD System
It’s the gearshift gate on the Mitsubishi that looks like it’s fallen out of the 1970's. It ages it so much, I wouldn’t even step in it!
Oh no. I've just seen the same visually challenged designer must have drawn up the Toyota gearshift gate. Another fail.....
Mitsubishi rather effeminate, lightly built, historically prone to head gasket issues. On the plus side it is the only one with 'super-select' 4wd system that gives the useful option of full-time 4wd on paved roads and grippy surfaces.
Ford, great to drive, roomy, tows 3.5 tons without the three axle restriction of the the L200. Very thirsty engines and the 6 speed automatic, while better than the five speed of the L200, is not the best and most predictable box.
Toyota. Very black inside which shows dust and dirt terribly. Rather uninspiring engines and transmissions and rough suspension.
All of the above are trucks and don't compare favourably with even SUV's. They all have live rear axles on leaf springs like the old Morris Marina, only much harder to carry a ton in the bed. The Ford, and maybe the Toyota [I haven't checked, but the Ford certainly] is over weight when unladen and is therefore restricted to 10mph less than many other pickups, such as the L200, on many minor and dual carriageway roads. So 50 on A roads and 60 on dual carriageways, which is a pain in the posterior when it is by far the best to drive.
How come the best is not included?
#navaranp300
that is not the best
Amarok V6 for me!
Amarok 178 top , V6 its a byg error
Toyota mucho bueno
I own the ranger
I’ve owned l200s and driven long term the newest one
Work used hilux before going to rangers
Hands down the ranger is better by far the best truck
As for this video using two mid spec trucks against top spec hilux is a little misleading
That is not the top spec hilux
And it’s the black edition of the ranger
Not sure that Hilux is the top spec model either
Ford ranger's are shit
Ranger despite how good it looks and well equipped it can be, has a multitude of very high risk issues. Hilux may or maynot be as bomb proof as yesteryear models but time will tell, it also only has like 160bhp and the laggy UI on that touch panel looked awful. The L200 is the only pickup in the group that can be used in 4wd on the road which is a god send in the rain.
Wow! You can actually SEE how bumpy the Toyota is lol. Sort out your suspension Toyota!
yep , nearly broke my rib in my uncle's Hilux the other day on bumpy potholed roads , way too hard suspension
It is made to carry heavy loads. . .
They’re all horrible to drive it feels like you’ve genuinely ran someone over when you hit a potholw
"Erin's" nice.
hilux is still king of pick up trucks
Fuck Oath
Dodge Ram is better
Christophe Ayres were not talking about cool American trucks. We’re talking tiny engined slow U.K. trucks
Ranger be like Noobs
Ranger all the way
Should of had the ranger 3.2 wild track
No, don't do it, rest of the world. Don't crowd your roads with these the way we have in America! Trucks in the US are popular because most of the country is still somewhat rural and people see them as the default choice - but they don't need them or make use of them as trucks. And it's hilarious to constantly see people with over a foot of suspension height inching slowing over a 5-inch speed hump. Btw, Erin's jacket is cool.
Sadly it's far too late for that.
These vehicles appear to have become the default choice for many over here.
I won't go into why I think they're a poor choice for the majority who own them, or the reasons why they have become so popular, but to say I dislike them is an understatement.
E Brown It just a truck dude, what’s so special about them?? I know you Americans like to fuck your cars but seriously chill
Actually most of the US is urban. But I agree, most people dont even use them for utility purposes. I rarely even drive mine. But tons of people use them for things you cant do in a car or suv and just because it has a bed doesn't mean that it's only purpose is to haul stuff. By your logic, why are people buying more SUVs than cars when they're slightly less efficient, arent used for off-road sport, and have more space in the back than most people need. Maybe just like suvs owners, truck owners like to sit up high when driving. That's a personal preference man and you cant fault anybody for that.
3 cars made for builders with 3 women reviewing them. Fucking bonkers.
I started out the video as a guy but by the end was wearing a dress and heels lol 😂, too much female power here the estrogen is infectious lol where's those 3 clowns from Grand tour wheb we need em lol
these are pickups not really best shown by ladies.🛒👠 🤦♂️ they all look good though ya really need your boots on ladies 🤦♂️
What are these broads up to
Mia Cassinelli welcome to the uk it’s fucking awful
We have 6 women sat round a table commentating the men’s football
3 chick's...lol. Bring back men for car reviews as we love our trucks. Personally don't know any girls who would buy these.
Toyota
Not 100% Accurate on L200 specs... Warriror and Barbarian both have apple/android car play.
MITSUBISHI is the only truck you can drive in 4wd on the main road like a SUV...
Appalling!!!!
Review for the rural school run mums . Waste of time for anyone wanting to buy a truck for what they were designed .
It's not top gear. People looking at these videos are in the mood to buy they need help to make there minds up.. A.B.C what one is the all out best top top. They fail to get the point. Now going to look at more videos to find the real answers. Wasted video.
Mitsubishi is the best. Toyota 2nd and the Ford 3rd
What would they know other than parking in a mall
Give it to farm guys to test! There not for townies
fuck off parasite
These ladies seem to like to ride it rough..
lol
They are all made from cheap shit steel. Get the one with the longest anti-corrosion warranty. My Hilux rusted out after 8 years - Toyota didn't want to know.
agt155 who keeps a car for 8 years
Conner MUSE anyone who’s not leasing or pcping lmao
@@conner7224 Someone who can afford to buy one out-right I suppose. You do make a good point. The majority of people who 'buy' new vehicles do so on lease/finance, keep them for less than 5 years and then 'buy' another. Therefore what do Toyota care if their product falls apart after 8 years, the guy with the rusted out 8+ yr old vehicle probably wasn't going to buy new next time in any case so they haven't lost a customer.
Toyota is kak
L200 very good Hulix very bad
l like female videos with car
1st
Yeeaaaaah,I was actually first but I erased my comment so that some else could enjoy the pleasure of being first....you're very welcome.
When comes to pick-up trucks, I'd rather trust Aussie farmers' opinion on the matter than two english chicks and one english dude called Erin (wtf?! that's a girl's name). So I would take the Hilux, thank you very much.
JELH Fuck off, go do something worthwhile with your sad life instead of troll on the internet hiding behind your screen.
Nathan Knight, you are a pervert.
No ones buying Hilux anymore they have massive reliability issues mostly due to their DPF Filters. The most popular 4X4 in Australia is the Ford Ranger
Aussie farmers use landcruiser utes
The most popular and trusted by the Aussie farmers is the Toyota Landcruiser ute, weather it be a 40 75 or 79 series
Women reviewing Pick ups = total waste of time. It’s all very well being progressive but how many women are pick up users? Negligible!!! It would be worth having a mans opinion.
MitsubiSHIT it's not for me 😉
Why the hell would anyone in the UK want to buy a pick up? Complete waste of money because they just don't work over here. Just buy a transit for fucks sake.
I guess you never towed a heavy trailer.
@@grafvonwalbeck8261 Not had any need to. There are plenty of good tow cars out there, no need for a pointless pick up.
what the hell is a millennial....or shouldn't I even bother.
Ford the best
Ford is gay and shit
@@bignateaussie8123 you mispelled Dogsh*t Toyota
Useless review.
Toyota is not super reliable, i had one for 10 weeks and at 12,000 miles had play in steering, amazing truck for motorways, but felt uncomposed in off road, un-even lumpy conditions.
Never driven ford, but if you want hair in your new paint and blemishes plus oil coolers blowing up and destroying engines then go for it.
The only truck you can drive full time 4x4 is mitsubishi, it has puddle lights etc in barbarian spec too.
Anyway, bit light on actual ownership facts this review....wouldnt base a descision on it....
All diesel
So no💩
Why do you get clowns like these to review car's like this. They haven't got a clue.
Never take truck advice from Brits.
Mitsubishi has no business making trucks, just like Toyota doesnt. If it's not a ford, Chevy or ram it's not a true truck.
