@@jeanmichaelc1 a rally car has only one driver so the seats are fixed in place for that driver. When you wife is half the size of you and drives it you do want them. And yes it also gets very cold in N.Z too and the UK models has the heated wheel
2024 Raptor Ranger in the USA has memory seats and heated steering hope you get it over there. Maybe they will gives us the rear vents and grab handles and rear air vents in the states and you guys get the memory seats and heated steering wheel over there.
Hey mate, really enjoy your videos. By the sounds of it, it looks like you need the Ford Ranger Raptors slightly bigger brother the Ford F150 raptor R 5.2L supercharged V8 Heated steering wheel Memory seating Heads up display Pretty much everything you wanted plus more. Difficult to acquire here in New Zealand but I have seen quite a few, right hand drive ones in Australia.
How many kms are you actually getting in the diesel, especially now its loaded up with camping gear? I get 550kms a tank on my V6 and when I test drove a desiel one with a full tank it was showing 650 to empty
😢 sad to see this one go, it is an absolute beast of a build. I will no doubt pick your brain in future when I start to add more serious off road mods to mine, I am considering slightly bigger tyres and a winch bar when the fam & I start to hit the Aussie offroad icons 🇦🇺🤘
I believe the reason why Ford will never release a ranger raptor with a v8 engine is exactly the same reason as why you are selling the v6 and going to a biturbo mate. Its just cheaper to run, by alot. The v6 gets 400-500km range per tank, super charged v8 probably 300km per tank, maximum. Who needs that much power when speed limit is 90-100km/h
Haha yes but how much fun would it be for that 300km haha . I will be going back to the V6 after this 2.0L Camper build. I don’t mind paying for the gas as it’s smiles the whole time.
Yep sold it for the most simple reason; 1- doesn’t have V8 like raptor R 2- Hud display that will add couple of thousands to its price 3- it doesn’t have memory seats, heated seats heated steering!
HUD - $80 landed, run off your OBD2. Electric memort seats - in Raptor - makes little sense. Vented seats - yeah, agee 100%. Your buying a whole heap of engineering injected in a trade truck, not a luxury car.
Yes the seats are already electric seats but I was asking for the memory function where I can have pre set positions saved for myself and my much shorter wife for simple press. Does the Heads up you use show the gear you are in or just the speed?
Why do memory seats make little sense? Properly integrated HUD needs a special windscreen to prevent ghosting. The film layer between the two pieces of glass needs to be tapered instead of flat.
Do you have the 2.0 now? Could you give a quick run down on it? Does it perform like the previous raptor? And is there any missing features compared to the v6?
Yes I have the 2.0L now. It’s much the same as the old PX Raptor. Still an amazing machine. Over the V6 it is missing the front diff lock and the live valve suspension. It’s also a lot slower and doesn’t sound as good. But I can get double the millage over the V6 and it still looks and feels the same. It’s a daily driver where the V6 is a weekend toy.
Joel! Long time since the last time we caught up! Just had this video pop up in my feed, good review of the truck. The 2.0L raptor in orange is something we’re considering for my next company vehicle so it’ll be good to see what you do with it!
Yer man it’s been great so far. The 2.0L Raptor has gone everywhere the V6 would without any hesitation at all. It’s also much cheaper to feed than the V6 and you tend not to speed in the 2.0L so it’s been great
That’s true for the bigger F-150 Raptor that needs a V8 due to the extra weight but is not true for the much smaller and lighter Ranger Raptor or the Bronco Raptor that are both made in the USA.
All snorkels are that’s the beauty of them. But I tell you what when you need them they are the most beautiful thing you can have on your Ute as all the others around you become flooded
It’s not a Ranger. My daughter’s 2002 tremor is a ranger. This is an ugly out of place F100, junk nevertheless. The maverick is ranger size, also ugly as hell. If they gave one to Farley he wouldn’t want to be seen in it.

Very cool truck, 100% - top spec seats with all the elec motors & no memory module.. c’mon Ford. Colin.
Right !!!
I don’t think I will even sell mine bc I absolutely love it and I have it for almost 4 months
Yes that’s why I am buying another one haha
This video was so informative and fun to watch!
Thanks
How many kms are you actually getting in the diesel, especially now its loaded up with camping gear? I get 550kms a tank on my V6 and when I test drove a desiel one with a full tank it was showing 650 to empty
Now that I own the 2L Raptor for 3000km I can get 600km a tank. My wife will get 800km
650??? Mine does 589 on full tank
I have the xlt 2.0 biturbo 7.5 litres per 100 👍
My 24 2.0 is getting around 800k’s
@@Rossy_moin on a full tank??? Mine says 534
Heated wheel and seat are standard on the Canadian version

I was sad too :-( but happy to buy and build the next raptor so watch this space
The 2.0 raptor, with accessories (utemaster loadlid, 33x12.5 wheels, snorkel, front and rear bar) I’m getting 550kms. Not close to 800kms at all.
@@brucephan1345 my wife can get 800km on the 2.0L and other people I have seen 900km a tank. I get about 600km with my style of driving

@@alexblackburn9771 that makes sense do you believe ford can make it happen?
@@joeldstirling they can do it of course, whether they will or not is a different question.
The 2.0 ranger raptor is a shame. I have the US 3.0 and I love it more than my bronco
The 2.0L has been keeping up and passing all the gas stations lol

It surprises me that there is no memory seat or seat cooling.
Right!
Oh wow a princess😂😂😂
we have the heated steering wheel in uk on raptor
Yes I just saw that. Why can we not have this
Checkout the GWM Tank 300 🙂 features, capability off-road, 9 Drive modes, vented seats, heat steering shell, list goes on.🙂
@@fortunatolara2028 yes but not as fast or as fun as a Raptor
Don't need to watch the video to know you're selling to pay for all those KC headlights :D
hahah they are not cheap the old KC lights . However I did not lose any money on this build 🙂
Who the hell buys a v6 raptor
@@Workerbee676 many people haha
wouldn’t be a mustang on the road with those wheels!
@@Wazza722 sure feels like it.
a V8 in a middle size pick up? wtf is that obsession with the number of cylinders...
We have always had a V8 in the Utes since 1971 that’s why
Yeah, I don't really understand either when it's pushing 405hp stock

Because I wanted a Raptor Camper

Raptor is the best hands down

@@joeldstirling yupp thats true
Do not have ventilated seats or HUD, in-fact there are zero options for equipment short of exterior color up here in the US on 24'
Pretty sure the americans just got memory seats in there model release recently. same bollox with the mustang.
yes I saw that
Totally agree on the memory seat. Super annoying
I believe they get it in the USA thou
The reptor? Is it available in Australia
Yes
Soon I would think
Driving on the beach?? Nothing for the environment and small living life. What a privileged approach, typical 1 st world hypocrites.

Real raptors are V8
Not Asian made

My raptor has memory seats
Where in the world are you based ?
@joeldstirling caribbean. But my raptor is from Thailand. I could be wrong but aren't memory seats ons that remember the setting you put it on?
