- The 2017 Ford Ranger is without a doubt one of the most insanely capable machines I’ve ever driven. With a 3.2 diesel engine, 6-speed box and ample onboard tech to keep even a 10 year old happy - have Ford made the new Ranger even better than ever before? In the Wildtrak spec, it's definitely in my books as an amazing truck.

Ford Ranger doesn't have Locking Diffs all round, just the rear and its not a V6 either, it's a Straight 5.
Good video mate, but get your facts straight!
I love mine. It's a straight 5 though not a V6.
I know loads of people have commented on the fact it a Straight 5 rather than a V6... But, tbf, I thought it was a V6 up until the day I bought one! :D
This Motor is a 3.2 Liter 5 Zylinder Not a V6
Sven Scharm as per other comments, oversight on the press pack - too late to amend the video now. :)
TomKentMusic no problem😊
We have by one off these imposible pick up and we love to drive this car.
strictly speaking a inline 5 Zylinder :)
I'm really toying with the idea of getting one of these. Really putting some time into watching reviews and yours is the best I've found so far, really informative and great to see the range of scenarios you covered with it too
did u get one??
@@harrydelaney6623 unfortunately not yet, but I would still like to in the future. I couldn't get the finance for it, but did get finance for a Tourneo Connect which was the same price..work that out lol. The Tourneo meets most of my needs to be honest, but I still want a truck 😂
@@rfitzgerald2004 yea i’m down to get one too 😂
I bought a wildtrak this year. Friggin awesome. Love it ! 😁
John Citizen they’re amazing vehicles!
me 2 best motor i have ever had 😃
Two things... Just say no to "skinny jeans" and NEVER use low range on dry tarmac. It can cause significant damage to your truck as there is no CV in the transfer case. Thus, no slip. Since the front and rear will spin slightly different, binding will occur then, SNAP!
this is so weird.i just discovered your videos 20 minutes ago.I was researching 1 litre Honda Civics and also Ford Rangers (weird combo i know but I have narrowed the search down to those too)and strangely enough you reviewed those exact 2 models.then i discover we both play variations of the Fender Jazz bass professionally.anyway thank you for your bassists take on both vehicles.now i must just choose(bound to be the Civic)
The Civic is a brilliant gigging car. As shown in the video, the Jazz fits in the boot length ways - a rare ability!
Top marks for playing a Jazz too - epic basses!
They're even better when you remap them.
NOT A V6 FELLA. ITS A 5 CYLINDER.
David Williams as per every other comment. :D
Best bakkie ever made!
Janco Stander Ute
The Ranger, epic or what?? And it's a Golf saver.
dude must have been going some to flip lol
but yeh epic thing
I think it was heavy breaking from the posted speed limit, plus a slippy road. A sad loss, it was a great looking car.
how is the audio quality ?
Decent for a commercial. Amarok and X-Class have superior systems, but they’re based on commercial and passenger technology. As commercials go - this is top notch.
Inline 5 cyl, great engine, soo torquey
Looooads of torque, very good at towing cars out of ditches, as I found out!
Hi I'm sure the ranger is a five cylinder and not a V6 also great fuel economy quoted as my ranger m sport only averages 20ish around town??
manual trans? im impressed! not many people drive manual these days. there are no reviews on the ranger with manual trans.
how do they drive with manual trans? can you do a review on them? thanks
This particular truck was manual. I think I made a comment like, it feels commercial but you trust it entirely. Very solid, typically notchy for a bigger engine but still lovely to drive.
another wicked review but not sure id have one ahah
I'd strongly advise test driving one, it'll certainly change your opinion.
Nice car
Just bought 1 in england I hope it's as good as you say lol💪
It definitely is! Even a few years on, they’re still great.
@@TomKentMusic I just bought a 2017 in sea grey with 21000 miles there is an electric dif lock and auto box..I'm sure this will be a little harder on fuel?
+Dave Irish probably nothing too major, the 3.2 has a lot of power to move stuff.
great truck no lie but the onea we get in trinidad is like glass handle with care or its gonna break
That’s not good to hear!
Its a 5 cylinder not a V6
Any plans for 2019 ranger 2.0 biturbo, 10 speed auto?
Not currently, but it can be added to the ‘to review’ list! :)
Next year they plan to release : 10.0 l, eight-turbo, 36 speed auto. Enough 4 U ?
I think you'll find the 3.2L in the Wildtrak is an in-line 5 cylinder unit not a V6 as you stated......
Steve Cope Ah. My tech sheet said V6, must’ve been a typo!
Might be a good idea to open the bonnet and take a look at the engine if you're doing a review.....I own a 3.2 Wildtrak and I can assure you it's a straight 5 diesel.
The 3.2 is an 5 cylinder in-line engine. Open the hood, and watch inside. 😉
+thierry humbert yeah, a slight oversight! 🙈
rookie error
The other thing on the MPG you have quoted.....
You say between 38 and 35 MPG. That's between 8 and 7.4 l/100Km. The best factory rating for these is 9l/100Km (31 MPG) and in reality - every owner I know and mine as well, get 11.5l/100Km or 25 MPG. I don't know how your test one delivered such economy beyond even the most conservative factory numbers - and WAY better than owners experience.....can you confirm your numbers are correct?
+Steve Cope Tank to tank - 35mpg on a run (250 miles) with no weight loaded on, driven at 60mph. The higher number would’ve been proven had I not got stuck in traffic.
If you drive sensibly, it returns good fuel economy - my figures are roughly what Ford UK claim it can achieve, and it’s the only vehicle I’ve ever tested to do that.
+Steve Cope in addition. UK gallon is different to USA gallon - so might be a muddle up there?
No - no muddle up there, I use imperial gallons (Australia). If your's get that economy at 60MPH, you'd better let the factory so they could claim it. Their global sales pitch number is 9l/100K's or 31MPG. Believe me, if they could claim a better number - they would. Reality is between 25 to 29MPG. Yours is an anomaly, I can assure you.
Steve Cope UK spec list PDF says 39mpg extra urban, 33.6 combined. Spoken to multiple 2.2 and 3.2 owners during the loan who have all said theirs were very close to Ford figures. Local dealer also confirmed theirs to turn around just below claimed figures.
Amazing. No-one here gets better than 9l/100Ks or 31MPG here unladen at cruise highway speeds. Economy goes south from there. Is yours the Ad Blue model?
V6?
towing a car for the law on camera whilst talking to pc plod and no seat belt on! lol good vid tho
Only has rear locking diff, not all round but never mind 👍
This one definitely had the all-round diff option, not just rear etc. :)
TomKentMusic don't want to get in to argument but the rear diff is an optional extra with the off road pack, the front does not have diff lock, google it? I pick my wildtrak up tomorrow with off road pack 👍🏻 cheers
I agree google says that, but the press spec sheet said front as well! :) Also said V6.. ;)
TomKentMusic I picked mine up this morning same colour as yours so I asked sales guy, the front is limited slip diff the rear can be locked with off road pack, but am really pleased with the first 20 miles, buy the way your review helped me decide on the ranger over the hilux invincible! Cheers for your honest review 👍
I’ve got one,,23mpg round town 28mpg up the motorway at best
Wow! Maybe I just got lucky..
are you sure v6?
Carl Lorenzo as other comments, my spec sheet for the vehicle was wrong - it’s an online 5 cylinder. :)
Nice video but it is NOT a V6
Push the button in while pulling your handbrake. It might work properly
that VW will buff out . all good
Sparky Malarky Sadly it didn’t. :( He stripped it and now has a new project.
Ford ranger < Chevy colorado
G H O S T R I D E R 115 what makes you say that? The ranger is a tank! :D
id say the colorado is equal not better
Equal is a good shout, but the Ranger isn't made for the US market (I don't believe). That's why you have Ford F150's etc.
V6, do you know what are you talking about? Pathetic,9 min lost
Not really. Bit of information wrong, rest is correct. Rest of the video is journalism - also have you even taken 30 seconds to see the other comments? Or read the description? 😅😬 Be constructive, don’t be a keyboard warrior, especially not at Christmas. 🎅🏼
