#ford #ranger #raptor - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
I've been driving my Ranger Raptor for over 3 months now. This vehicle is amazing for medium to large cities with shitty roads. And yeah btw it is amazing offroad. If you are wondering how i got mine early , well i live in saudi.
Greetings my muslim brother from Colorado.. How much did you pay? allah yubarik
AllAhhhh snakbar
Mine is being delivered in 2 days. I cannot wait. I'm from Australia 😊
@@rebelrob9637Allah Akbar my Muslim australian brother
What we need now relating to mid-size trucks is a price war.
Get what ya pay for & Ranger is best in class. Period.
If you look at all the numbers and capabilities, a used F150 is still better and cheaper.
@@RW-zh7klThe only thing where the raptor stands out is where it’s build for and that’s towing, and then also in the price difference offcourse. The rest is neck on neck, the ranger raptor even has an advantage in handling because off the weight difference, on and offroad.
@@RW-zh7kl USED and abused Not New and fresh
We have it already lol. They go to war over most expensive truck top stop 😂
Andre you have NO IDEA how important the effort you put in really is.
Thank you very much! I really appreciate it!
Agreed
You know there is a mile long list of activities that void the various warranties, so asking a lying Ford employee about their trucks is like asking a chicken for the best chicken recipe
Really impressed with the 24 Ranger tbh. I love the new interior and like the guy said it's not a knock off of the F150 and has it's own identity. I'm also liking that it has Sync 4A which is much more responsive than Sync 4.
Thank you for doing these extended in depth videos for us enthusiasts Andre.
Great interview with The Elven King 😂
Listening by to the Chief’s insight totally sold me on the truck.
you do know its designed in Australia for Aussie Conditions It will eat everything the US has. Australia has had a Ranger Raptor for the last 4 or 5 years in the PX3 version but this one is a new another level. Also the first Production 4WD to finish the Fink Race here
Andre thanks for talking to the engineer. Enjoyed what he had to say.
Thank you for watching!
Compared to other things you can get new RWD 400ish HP, this thing is weirdly kind of a bargain regardless. Especially if you want to seat 4-5 and have all weather capability. Too bad stealerships will make that moot.
Find a better dealership then
A bargain?? Yeah ok. At the end of the day if you can get one it’ll be like 65 grand.
57.5 grand after the starting point of Toyotas 65 Grand TRD Pro it does seem like a steal
The Ford Engineer sounds like the guy in the Simpsons, Troy McClure
In Australia I have the next generation Ford Ranger Sport. I opted for the 3.0L V6 diesel engine which puts out 184kw (249HP) & 600Nm (442 ft lbs). It’s great for towing my 2.5T caravan 👍
I absolutely love my '21 Ranger XLT Tremor. It's been flawless. Brilliant powertrain combo. Good mpgs. Comfortable, lots tech & off rd ability. I hate to get rid of the truck but if all new '24 Ranger is leaps & bounds better (that won't be easy) i may consider! Or give my son my '21 Ranger. Hard to beat these trucks!
All the Ford Performance Chief needs are some tasty waves, a cool buzz and he is fine.
lol😎
Don't worry...his brother has the ultimate set of tools. 🏄🏽♂️
Jeff spicole fast times!!
Being able to fit a 4x8 sheet between the wheel wells is awesome. That is rare for midsize segment, Ridgeline being only other one.
No rear vents is unfortunate though!
Both because of the partnership with VW. VW demanded to be able to fit a pallet in the bed. Likely also wanted rear vents to be a unique "premium" feature on the Amarok.
Good morning 6 minutes in & this dudes way of talking causes me to pause & get a joint & coffee :) Now I'm ready! Everybody have a great day +
Ford has a strict drug testing policy even for the people doing construction on its property lol
@B He must have cheated that test LOL. That dude with Andre made my morning the other day.
Very informative as always, thanks, Andre.
at dinner, I ditched Netflix for this!
Won’t be able to get one of these for at least 2 years considering all the dealer markups that will for sure come with these
👏👏👏 THANKS GUYS .... HAPPY FRIDAY EVERYONE ✌️....
Happy Friday 🤙🏽 even though every day is Monday for a couple months before the weekend 😅
Thank you as always!
So cool you had The Guy answering questions.
The messed up part is that dealership are going to price these bad boys roughly 10k less than a F150 Raptor (IMO).
'kay. But then they're also marking up the f-150 raptors. And bronco raptors. And used trx's. Almost a moot point. At this point either expect to overpay on any low production vehicle or find a dealership that isn't doing any markup
@@markcoopers1930 Or just do like me and wait until they have been out for a year or two and then pick it up CPO or private party sale for a discount. F*** Stealerships and their price gouging markups.
15:02 Yay, I see numbers around the ring of the tach! Ford finally came to their senses.
I hear people complaining about styling, and they're right, but know that styling like everything we like and own is subjective in the first place. What you don't like, does not affect someone else's decision. What you like, someone else doesn't. On the other hand, the market is open and wide, you can as well move over to other brands. Styling is indeed subjective.
Andre, did you try the wireless charging pad? Will it fit a full-size phone- Samsung S23Ultra? This was what kept ne from the Explorer.
There is no such a thing as overkill. Thank you Andre. God bless you and your team Man. Take care
Bro, I was sure it's James May there in the thumbnail 😆
Very nice truck, the interior is really well done. Nice job with the touch screen looking like it was designed for it, unlike the new Tacoma that looks like they just glued a flat screen onto the dash.
I like the Raptor version, seems like they really dud the research and responded, well done!
Love the Ranger Raptor but holly hell that price tag.
Nice truck but I'm not ready to adopt that Bud Light image.
Only 1800 orders after 1 month with order banks open.... not selling well right now. Hope I can get my order built soon!
My 2017 ecoboost f150 3.5TT Lariat was falling apart after 65,000km crankcase leak over and over again. I think I’ll go for the Tacoma if I was buying always lease an ecoboost vehicle never buy. they’re the worst engines in every class they’re apart of from hot hatches to the raptor. Fast and powerful but risky.
I personally miss the 'dip' the larger Ford trucks have on their front doors. I think it's such an awesome design element and really sets it apart from other trucks.
Missed opportunity.
The new '24 Ranger Raptor should be truck of the year. No doubt! -NY
Great job getting the insights straight from Ford's Performance Chief!👍
Poor Andre.... I see regret....wonders, does it come with cruise control😂😉😜. Thanks for the video blog.
I reserved a Ranger Raptor… almost ordered a Colorado ZR2 but it came out to be $51k optioned the way I’d order it and the Raptor at $56k is better all around than the ZR2…
Suspension and powertrain goes to the Raptor. The ZR2 styling and interior are far superior.
As we say, "more money than brains."
Give a full size box so I can use them on the Ranch/Farm. Do not say they are to light they are not. 7:08
56K is not that bad honestly. IMO fair price. What other car can you get with 400hp for less?
They will easily be 65-70K as soon as they hit the dealership. Mark my words!
The thumbnail looks like you’re chillin with James May!
Love that Interior and green color
We have 3 in my street. People love them. Toyota Hilux is still the ute of choice. I hope Ford bring the Bronco here.
Well done Andre and Ford engineers, plenty of good information.
getting mine tomorrow and cant wait!
$56K is actual respectable given so many off-roaders/baja start at $70K+
The ability tp put a full sheet of plywood or drywall in the back without getting creative is the one single reason why I will buy this truck.
Or the GM Twins
Wow the hated Honda Ridgeline been doing that for some years.
With its lay-flat bed.
@@fredmoss4540 we dont talk about that “truck” lol
@Raul Gallardo Why not talk about?
The auto press/media said many years ago that Ridgeline would be influential.
Others would be copying off it.
The Dual Action Tailgate of 1st Gen Ridgeline. That brought about pickup truck tailgate wars. The Ridgeline used old station wagon tailgate swing drop.
Ram with it's Barn Door style. Others with adjustable and tricks in them.
The Ridgeline in-bed trunk Ford and other EV Pickup Truck have Frumps for storage. Hyundai Santa Cruz little in-bed storage. GM little tailgate storage.
Maverick and Santa Cruz Unibody pickup trucks. They are all flocking to that Maverick. Probably a lot that criticized the Ridgeline. The lay-flat bed that can hold those 4×8 sheets if plywood or drywall flat. This is in the midsized truck segment with plywood.
The speakers in the truck bed walls of Ridgeline RTL-E and Black Edition trims.
Toyota or somebody. got a removal Bluetooth speaker. Kicked was doing something for another pickup truck.
@Raul Gallardo Motor Trend, Car and Driver others always talk about. TFL just said it didn't get enough Love.
Like I said Ranger can now fit 4×8 sheets of plywood in it's bed flat. It's wonderful buyers say. Ridgeline had a TV commercial doing that some years ago.
Lay-flat bed. Al's showing how 5 average size passengers can actually fit into Ridgeline cabin.
Great job andre! I love the truck, disappointed it only comes with 4 doors,wanted the Xtra cab and 6 foot bed
The ford guy is kinda strange, he might be AI
Nah I think he’s just stoned 😂
Just a car nerd. Love it
Without looking at him sounds like a Surfer Dude…
I think the new Ford Ranger is very nice but inflation is hitting pretty hard right now and wages aren't keeping up so I will have to look at the Ford Maverick instead
Try getting one they Are not keeping up with demand
Good luck. The Maverick roll out has been almost as terrible as the Bronco.
I love both my Hybrid and my Tremor XLT Mavericks.
I thought I would trade up to a new Ranger but got priced out
@Shifty McGee you had to order and be extremely patient
@@the305hauler I waited a year and a half for my Bronco before I gave up. Mark ups will keep me away until they’re heavily discounted years from now.
Booyah 👊🏽 😁 👍🏽 🇺🇸
It looks great.
But the trims are too expensive
Cannot beat new F150s, F250s or Ranger trucks. Owned em all. All we buy. Strong & solid. Biggest frames. Most comfortable & practical interiors w/cutting edge technology. Most importantly proven Gen2 powertrains. Keep up the great work Ford Motor! 👍🏻
What a fan boy 🤣😂
Thanks Andre!!
No rear AC, no vented seats in Raptor. What is Ford thinking.
Andre, YOU are the man at TFL!😊
I truly appreciate your kind words!
Ford engineer guy is awesome
As soon as y'all gets y'alls hands on the new Ranger, put it beside the Maverick for comparison.
56 grand and a hood prop??? That's a step backward. My wife's 2020 XLT has shocks. Not really a deal breaker just a surprise on what looks to be an amazing truck. Great video, thanks TFL.
AND NO PASSEBGER VENT!!! What gives Ford??
Just a few items for people to consider.
Tonneau cover = 65-100 lbs
Bed topper/cap = 150-200 lbs
WD hitch = 80-120 lbs
Andre, great videos! The Raptor Ranger looks and sounds to be a perfect 2nd/alternate vehicle! It wont replace the work my F150 can do but it sure looks to be an amazing daily driver/fun vehicle! Raptor Ranger in Code 🍊 🤤
Ask Ford why their products cost so much. Am I the only one that foresees the prices of all trucks surpassing a working mans salary? So when all these trucks are beyond our fiscal limits, which is about where we are now, then who will buy all these new trucks? Thx TFL for another great video.
Because Trucks are now unfortunately made for suburban office men who want to look rugged and tough but have never picked up a hammer in their life.
Gonna have to get a 180 month loan like a house
Less people moving forward will be able to afford new cars. Wait until the EV mandates are here 10 years from now...
@@phattorangecatto really? I worked a blue collar in the field job for a few years but now am an account Executive. No reason to try and put down people. BTW, your theory is totally wrong. I know LOT'S of people that work more blue collar jobs and have Raptors and other such trucks. Pricing is a function of the entire vehicle industry. Ford, like all manufacturers, need to make high margin on these types of vehicles in order to offset the losses on their less popular vehicles. That's how all industries work. Plus, the new Ranger cost billions (yes, with a B) to develop and get to production so they have to make up that cost plus profit somehow. 🙂
Always a guy who makes a lot of money to justify trucks costing so much lol
This guy certainly doesn’t spend his Ford paychecks at the Barber 💈 shop! 😂
Loving the Azure/Area57 with graphic pack on the other side.
Watts link is instead of a panhard bar. The panhard bar makes the axle follows an arc, the watts link allows it to go straight up and down.
Interesting no air vents in the rear. SE Asia version does and they are needed.
For real. With small kids and many days over 100°F where I am that's unforgivable.
Florida>>> Need it- even if no one back there-- cools truck quicker-- ESPECIALLY BLACK😳
It doesn't blow strong in the back but it's there and helps.
Hey guys, I have some questions that were not brought up regarding Ranger Raptor. Does it have the Dana 50 out back and Dana 44 up front like Bronco Raptor? Also, what is the total suspension travel? Is it about 10 inches like Aussie version? What is the ratio for the differentials?
well i can answer one question .. It is not a Dana 50 . in the rear .
Real questions that the (still) hack interviewer didn't even think to ask.
the “Dutchboy” hair on the Ford dude is kicking!!!!!!
The Ford rep is talking about saving settings to My Mode,what he failed to mention of course, all of the save settings GO AWAY whenever the vehicle gets an OTA update. My 21 F150 did that and pissed me off to no end
Now how many recalls will this one have? Will it be available to purchase in the US without the dreaded dealership issues that are currently happening?
Awesome truck! Wish I could test drive
The amount of price coping going on is Utterly ridiculous.
It may be a 'Bargain' in today's market, but the big 3 have fat profits baked into their suv and pickup segments.
Also, why is 4 Auto now considered Awd? It's not.
Yes!, you guys need one of these. They may be pricey but its still half the cost of a f150 raptor
I like the truck overall, especially the interior. I prefer the styling of the Colorado though, inside and out. I do wish GM would offer a twin turbo charged V6 for the ZR2.
I TOTALY agree. Or find a way to put a 5.3 into it lol. Those engines are honestly not the big
GM offering 315 HP & 430 on torque is awesome .... I think Ford 2.7 is 400 on torque
On Order!
The eucalyptus tree reference was clearly for someone why piled a test truck somewhere….
Love that Raptor
Funny, its already old news here in Europe. Great truck tho!
Andrey keeping up continuity with the same shirt in podcast and interview! Details!
That guy’s hair is way too awesome for me to take him seriously 😂 jk guys, good stuff!
😂😂
Mines getting delivered on Friday. Cannot wait. I'm Australian
It doesn't get me excited, the pricing leaves me less excited.
And left out 😂
Does GMC truck do it for you? If one of those don’t then midsize aint for you
@@mattbrew11 Tell me why GMC does it for you.
@@freedomisntfree_44 Some have more cents to work with than good sense to work with.
@@fredsausage8794 which truck does get you excited?
Is there more maintenance to do on the suspension than the normal xlt and wildtrak?
Likely so. Raptor shocks typically have a 50k mile rebuild interval.
As a former owner of an F-150 Raptor, I’d pay that price for the Ranger Raptor. But I will never pay over sticker, so, likely, I will never own one of these.
Good looking trucks. I’m not sure I’ll be buying one, as long as my Ram Laramie keeps running…but I like it.
Dunno what the commenterrs were smoking when they said it looked like a ripoff or whatever, but this mid sized truck is the best looking one by a mile. Cant say the same about reliability tho but that cred belongs to almost all toyota vehicles
When are they going to release a barebones raptor. I don’t want the bells
How are you doing "spirited" or "heavy duty" off roading with plastic side steps? LOL XD
Here in South Africa where the Rangers are made the roads are filthy with Raptors like a scene from Jurassic Park.
Faster than the 3.5 F150 Raptor?
When’s the drag race?!!!
In SE Asia it has a 2.0l bi turbo diesel or a V6 single turbo diesel, the same v6 as the VW Amarock
Wish the knobs were more bigger beefier. Wish the infotainment screen was wasnt in portrait style
Andre just bought a Colorado Trail Boss too, I see a trade in the future.
I would like to see the comparison and capability comparison between the Ranger Raptor, Chevrolet Colorado Bison ZR2, and GMC Canyon AT4X ,PLEASE , thank you , have a Blessed Day!- Chris
I just wonder if you were going to do overlanding how this rig is going to handle aftermarket parts.
This truck was developed in Australia with the new Amerock from Volkswagen. So it is wider because of the European pallet that needs to go in the tray.
I wouldn't count the sound on the plus-side of the column tbh.
So I raptor rangers going to be in short supply like the f150 or will production be ramped up to meet demand
Add rear vents! And an option for a moonroof!
They need to bring the flippin everest overhere.
Very nice…
gmc looks to fancy. plus I just like ford. good job as always
Great reviews TFL. Does anyone know the estimated MPG for the new Ranger 3.0 Raptor engine ?? Love the truck but hoping fuel range isnt to painful.. thx tfl
Ive had one for 6 months and i tend to enjoy the sound in baja mode a little too much so i sit around 16.5-17 l/100km (14.25mpg) with more relaxed driving 14-15 l/100km (16.8mpg) and to be extremely clear 90% of my driving is in the city on highways it has gone down to 12 l/100km (20mpg)
@mohammedbinmahfooz5791 thank you for your detailed reply regarding your fuel economy. For a 400 hp engine your averages seem very acceptable. I guess if someone is looking for 20+ mpg don't be looking at a raptor. Cheers. Good luck with the new truck.
Fuel is measured in feet per gallon if you're driving this correctly. Otherwise the standard raptor engines are a good fit
Window Stick says 16 city 18 highway
17 mix----
Yikes that is horrible. Come on ford u can do better
How can I verify that the 2024 Ranger 4x4 has flat tow mode like the 2023 version? I plan to order a 2024 but it must be flat towable.
