  • With the 2023 Ford Ranger Raptor having just landed, should you consider buying a used Raptor to get all the Raptor-y goodness without breaking the bank? What should you be careful of if you're still thinking about dropping $70,000+ on a used Ranger Raptor?

    At ReDriven, we’ll be taking you through the pros and cons of a huge range of used cars to see how well they’re going now that they’re a few years old, have thousands of kilometres on the clock, and are coming toward the end of their warranty, or maybe don’t have one at all.
    Plus, thanks to our resident mechanic, Jim, you’ll find out what commonly goes wrong with them and what might need to be fixed.
    Most importantly, we want to make ReDriven a voice for the most in-the-know used car experts there are...you guys.. See, you’re the ones that actually buy, live with, love and sometimes unfortunately hate the cars we’ll be reviewing.
    So we want to hear your thoughts. Hit us up in the comments, or on Instagram and Facebook.
    We’d love nothing more than for you to give us as much feedback as possible, so we can make this channel the best it can be.

    Loved this video, very informative; I recently got almost the same exact raptor from the video it’s 2018 and had 139,000 from when I financed it and I had the exact same questions and doubts before getting it but the raptor has been going great, the previous owner has serviced it consistently up to date/km and mostly used it as a daily commuter to head into town because she lived in a property an hour away and looked after it. As long as it’s been looked after and any issues that come up gets fixed it’s a good very capable and comfortable ute.

In the last 12 months I've had the timing case seal replaced twice under warranty and a seat bracket replaced as it was plastic and simply appeared on the floor one day. the Transmission can definitely be a bit dim-witted when cold but other than that, I love it. great review!!!

    18:02 I have a raptor here in France, I am a builder and very often where I travel to work is off road.. it’s been fantastic. The smaller towing capacity and load bed capacity haven’t been an issue. I can still tow a one ton digger for smaller jobs and all my tools fit in the back. Though I would like a better load bed solution. At the weekends it deals with motorway really well and off road exploring is amazing. So far no issue other than the odd squeak.

    As the owner of both outgoing and next gen Ranger Raptors, Id get this one even in 2023, its an exceptional truck, makes more sense than the new one unless youre after an off road ripping machine with all the tech bells and whistles, The first gen is more fuel efficent, offers a much MUCH better ride comfort, seats are cushier, feels punchier when driving relaxed arround town, better build quality than the new one, oh and looks better too with those sexy fenders and narrow glasshouse, the new one resembles the base ranger too closely.

    Have been waiting for this video! Got a 2020.25 Raptor and think this is a very fair review.
    My transmission failed at 26,000kms and was rebuilt under warranty without hesitation from Ford. Could not fault their customer service. Was given a new Wildtrak through Europcar while repair was carried out (3-4 weeks).
    Have had various other warranty claims honoured (fading exterior window rubber trims replaced, worn red leather on steering wheel - new steering wheel fitted etc) without any trouble at all.
    On road ride quality and refinement leaves all other dual cabs for dead which was one of the main deciders for me. Yes, that comes at the cost of payload and towing capacity but for me - no issue. Also yes, it is a little bit under powered but still offers reasonable economy.
    I rate it highly as an overall package for my requirements but will certainly be moving it on before the warranty expires!

    • @janjans0001
      @janjans0001 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I have just clocked 50k on mine. I also think it is a little underpowered, but because of this engine I was able to get such a car as a daily driver over here in Europe. A big turbo V6 or V8 petrol engine is just impossible to have over here with our fuel prices...
      So while that is a bit of a trade off, at least I can feel like a little kid again driving the monster truck I always adored!

    These remind me of the old ZD30 powered Patrols. You might get a good one that does over 300,000 km without an issue, or you get one that blows up before 50k. The build quality of the drivetrain is consistently inconsistent. I look after a fleet of Rangers where I work, and most of them don't have issues, but there are a few with oil leaks around the fuel pump, rear main oil seal leaks, failing EGR valves, DPF issues, and electrical gremlins.

    As I had my Raptor serviced for a Transmission overheating issue in July 2022, Ford informed me that we should be prepared to service Transmissions from 60,000km, particularly if towing or near max loads for most uses
    In all my Raptor has been reasonable, I have had only 4 issues all covered by warranty
    1) Fuel Pump burn out just before 10,000km - Plastic fuel line burnt slightly and bent over stopping fuel being pumped into engine - Fuel Pump replaced, - 21 Jan 2021
    2) Coolant Pump issue - Dash light came on just prior to 42,000km - Coolant Pump replaced, - 06 Jun 2022
    3) Transmission Overheating (46,000km)- on a return drive from Melbourne to Toowoomba during the hill sections of southern NSW, thermo bypass valve appeared sticky, transmission was slightly over filled- Transmission was serviced (replaced fluid) and tested, - 22 July 2022
    4) Tail Shaft slip yoke (69,000km)- On a recent service the Ford Techs identified that the Tail slip yoke had excessive play (+/-3-5mm) in the slip joint near end of expected suspension range - replaced with new tail shaft unit, - 10 August 2023 (of Note newer Tail shaft design installed)

    Fair review. I have driven one of these for the past 3 years and 113,000 Km. It's an enjoyable ride on the highways and very capable off-road at the farm. I can't find a reason to replace it as it is still very good despite the mud I leave on it and especially when the new model is 30% more expensive.

      Not only is it 30% more expensive to buy, it is going to be a fuel guzzler! While Ford claims 8litres for our 2 litre engines, they claim already 16 litres for the new one! If I do the math, I am doing 13.6 liters in my 2 litre raptor, the new one would do over 20 litres with my driving style, yikes!

      On the other hand you take the raptor off road and it is more capable than I am willing to put it through! I do 120kmh on dirt roads and my wife asks me to go even faster! It is really really impressive off road!

      Offroad, the Raptor is the most capable bad boy off-the-shelf. After an experience where my ute almost rolled off the edge of a cliff, I am not ashamed to admit that I don't go around testing my Raptor's off-road prowess. I'm just happy to overcome every challenge without a sweat.

I'm pretty interested in how it's going to handle rough dirt roads and the corrugations, I've seen enough videos to see the 4WD capabilities which seems to be okay if you're not setting out to try and destroy it :). I think before buying, not enough people consider the shitty road conditions before you even get to the destination where you need to chuck it in 4WD.

I went to places that I hadn't been to before because of the versatility of the X - Corrugation is the biggest + I can actually drive at 110Ks+ across the top of it and it's just like you were on sealed road I was actually having chuckle to myself it was that good. In the MUX you would just bounce off it and into a paddock on the Side of the road trying to hang on😁 On the highways and freeways its also magic it is as smooth as and cruises really well. First big trip coming up in a month or so Can't wait 👍Hey something else I have heard and seen people commenting on the brakes being ordinary ? Mine stops really well so I don't know what they are on about I have a 2018 Mustang GT ok that stops the best by a mile after that the Raptor is the best followed by Ford Territory, Ford BA LTD, then the MUX then my old 73 mustang but she's getting an upgrade to Wilwoods

      @@016cobra That's awesome, thanks for the detailed reply mate! Good to hear about the corrugations, I see so many video and written reviews that kind of brush over how good it is on corrugations etc., but I haven't seen that properly demonstrated aside from quick high speed offroad clips that do look impressive. Having a less capable vehicle for offroad means driving a lot slower and a rough ride, making for very long, uncomfortable trips that nobody will want to participate in. That will be a big selling point to my wife once she feels that difference - as it stands all I told her was I got a Ranger, not specifically which variant :D. I'll be setting it up for light overland stuff, so probably a hidden winch behind the stock bumper, a tub rack (already have a roller shutter on it), and aim for a lightweight rooftop tent to go on the rack. I've got an old '06 diesel BMW that is a blast for handling on-road, but got the itch again to go out exploring, there are some awesome local tracks up here on the CQ coast, as well as beach access.

    I’m looking to buy my first ever ute and going to be the family car with 3 kids - 2 needs car seats. Currently driving a Q7 (2018), but wanted something can do bit of off-road, during school holidays. Comparing 2020 raptor with nextgen v6 Wildtrack. What would be your thoughts in terms of practicality and comfort?

    I’ve got a 2012 landcruiser 200 series, bought it new and it’s done 462,000kms. I’ve done multiple brake replacements, 2 sets of shocks and one set of injectors. It hasn’t skipped a beat and I wouldn’t trade it for all the ranger raptors in the world.

They all have their common issues. 2015-17ish Hilux have dpf issues but stuff all else, dmax until 2019ish do turbos and body mounts like crazy, tritons crack exhaust manifolds and engine blocks weep coolant through the metal. From what I’ve seen the Hilux do seem to hold up better to harsh conditions and are always the oldest vehicles still running in the fleet.

    Regarding the 2 litre motor - I’d rather the 2 litre motor over the V6. I’ve done the Canning Stock Route and will do it again soon enough. Man I did it in a short wheel base 84 shorty 40🤣🤣. This thing would be perfect with that diesel motor in remote Australia - just point it anywhere and it’ll do it with diesel available anywhere. At 80km/h when smashing over corrugations and bumps the car doesn’t care whether it’s a 4cyl or V6. Just my 2 cents🤘🤘

  • @davidbrayshaw3529

    The great thing about Raptor's is you can drive them up the right hand lane of freeway at about 5-10 kmh. below the speed limit with your 'phone stuck to your ear because you haven't figure out how to use Bluetooth, yet.. Then, when someone passes you in the inside lane, doing the speed limit, you can flex the muscle of the mighty twin turbo engine and speed right past them before cutting them off as you finally move from the right lane to the left lane, just in the nick of time to make the exit ramp that leads you to your newly completed, but not yet paid for, West suburban abode.
    I shouldn't be so harsh. They're great for towing the jet ski that you still owe eight grand on and the dirt bike that you bought from your mate, cheap, but still haven't made a single payment on. And what better vehicle to tow your new ski boat, once the finance is approved.
