Sorry about the spelling of Wildtrak at the start of the video - IT'S LITERALLY WRITTEN ON THE SCREEN 😂 - Sean is now living peacefully at the bottom of the river crossing we used at the end of the video.
Haha… Sean is swimming with fishes… a Sicilian message
If this was a Ford Transit review, you could say that Sean was now living in a van down by the river 😅
We love Range

I have never seen Paul enjoy reviewing a vehicle as much as this one.
It's a ripper!
😂
Cause he bought 1 lol
@@whodiedlee He wouldn't have bought one if it initial impressions wasn't good, I don't see him putting money down for a Chinese Wok ute 😂😂
@@-PORK-CHOP- 100% but they get exclusive access before we do :D also 80k is nothing when you have cash haha
Even though a few other channels had their reviews uploaded first I patiently waited for Paul’s as I knew his review would be the best as always
Thanks mate!
His reviews are the best
@@CarExpertAus It's a "ripper"! :P
I watched a couple of others cause Paul was a bit slow but they were rubbish compared to CE
Same I love Paul’s reviews can’t watch anything else
The road noise test is fantastic, and it proves how this channel listens and incorporates feedback - just like the popular soft roader off road capability test.
Keep em coming !
This is my favorite car review video.
I love your format, you give me so much information and so much detail and I'm so engaged throughout.
I love the cruise control test, love the reverse test and I love the outside B - roll footage and how well it is synced.
Keep innovating and introducing more stuff and you honestly have the best off-road segment in the industry.
I would recommend a night time drive to teat out the lights, the ambient lighting and the interior usability at night.
I would also recommend you get some copyright free music to test out the audio system cause I believe we are able to discern the difference from one car to another.
The drawing feature is actually a really good thing as being a contractor I often do site meetings in my vehicle and I discuss various site things with my clients and draw a bunch of stuff on the ground to illustrate certain building structures which makes us go out of the car. Its really cool to see that we'll be able to do it inside the car while enjoying the a/c of the car itself
Hitting 2 birds with one stone hay? Get your message across and show off the car! Lol
Until the subscription error msg pops up "pls insert more coins to continue"🙂
@@adjrasta9365 Game Over
Have you not heard of a pen and paper?
@@kingcrumpet What is this witchcraft you speak of?
Decibel levels were brilliant. Better than the typical “it has some road noise” most journalists do. Keep it up.
I've been hanging out for your review and it didn't disappoint! Packed full of information and looked like you had alot of fun. I've ordered a Raptor aswell so am really keen to see your review on that!
I've been waiting this entire week for this review. Really enjoyed it. Keep up the good work. I really like this bakkie as well.
Love this review. Can you please do a review on the Ranger Platinum!
The road noise test is a great idea, its one of the most important metrics I use when buying a vehicle. Great to compare vehicles road noise.
Dynamat will fix road noise issues on most vehicles.
As always, the best reviews on TH-cam. Keep it up, so comprehensive and friendly!
Much appreciated!
Thanks for another great review Paul. Love the new segments and the new off road test track. Keep up the great work and ongoing innovation!
Paul your a legend mate! Love your reviews and the detailed depths you go to. I can't wait to see the review you do on the raptor! I'm planning on getting one too but want to see your review first. Thanks mate 👍
Awesome video. Really liked the road noise test. I think that’s a great element of your reviews to keep. The windows down In the rear was a new one as-well which is handy.
Ford really have made the hilux look ancient and outdated again.
First time I've seen a reverse speed test, very interesting. Fun fact: the Falcon XR6T had a max reverse speed of 80km/h. Fun times doing that on the HWP advanced driving course :)
yeah. what idiot wants to do that in reverse?
My VW amarok the passengers need seatbelts in reverse if you floor it from a standing start, its limited to about 45km/h, not fast enough to spin the front a full 180 deg around unless to road is wet and slippery
Love your review Paul, loving the new tests and look forward to seeing this in the comparison videos!!
Thank you Paul! This truly is THE best car channel out there! Getting my Ranger Wildtrak in the next days!!
Loved the new tests, particularly the radar cruise control and lane control! Appreciate how detailed your reviews are!
Great video man , thanks for all the work and share. I was waiting for this.
Thanks for the great Driver Aids section of the review! Really like the focus on testing the lane-centering capabilities of today's cars. Glad the Ranger has it included-- looking forward to seeing these arrive sometime in 2023 here in N. America!
Thank you that was a great test....very informative 🤙😎🤙
Love that they even prepared a larger size bottle just to check if it fits the door cupholder. That's how the video gets to the top trending mate!
My 2021 Wildtrack has the 360 lighting you've mentioned in this video. I love the wing mirror lighting at night. Makes a huge difference with getting in and out of the car in the paddocks.
Loved this review format and the inclusions. When you get to test the Next Gen Everest like this, can you please include a demo / test of how the park assist works? Also would love more inclusion in these segments on safety ie airbags etc, suitability for child seats / passengers etc. Thanks for these thorough reviews, has made pandemic therapy shopping expensive but awesome 😂
Fantastic video especially the radar cruise testing. The stop and go was great to see also. 👍🏽
The thoroughness of this review is a much appreciated display of high quality motor journalism.
Awesome review as always Pavle.
Legend 👏
45 minutes !! Great stuff Paul & Carexpert team.
Excellent review, by far the best comprehensive new car review I’ve seen.
Great review mate. I learnt a lot.
They should put the remote start function on the key itself rather than the app.
Love the review mate. Always very comprehensive. Thanks very much. What’s the story with the recall on the tail shaft vibration? XL and XLT affected too?
Great review Paul as always, very informative!!!
As always, the best review out there. Thanks.
great video...is it possible to switch the gauge cluster to just classic dials like the one in upcoming amarok?
Great review, love all the new tests.👍
Great video Paul. Can’t wait for the V6 review and when you get your hands on the Everest also 👌
I love your demonstration of the vehicle 👍🏽
Great review Paul, and congrats on the production and editing!
This is a great channel
Simple explanation of car features, no bullishit. 👍👍
Best review of a vehicle I have ever seen, so detailed. Well done.
You review cars in such a satisfying way! I love it
I took one for a test drive today v6 and it was awesome! Needless to say I’m now on the list
It couldn't give lane guide if there is no lane mark on the road, am I correct?
Awesome review, I really enjoyed watching it!
love the road noise test and settings test. we won't be needing to test drive a car because u Paul lol. Big ups man
Aaah at last, the review I was waiting for 🕺🏾.
My best detailed reviewer Paul, I’m always looking forward for your reviews.
You deserve more than 1M Subscriptions 🙌🏾.
Much love from South Africa.
Hi Paul,for all us caravan owners would it be possible to do tow test on the dual cab tests to see how these new systems work? Love your work keep it up mate.
Great review ! Thank you. Best review I have seen yet, by far. Can't wait to take delivery of mine next week in NZ.
Solid review! 👍 My best wishes!
Great review Paul.. what a beauty!
Looks awesome, like the design and look.Cant wait to drive one!Great review Paul!
Brilliant and love the new tests especially the DBA road noise.
Thank you for the much detailed review of this truck. I am now definitely going to my local Ford dealer to ask about the Raptor. It has everything I need and the guys from Ford have thought about every little stuff you might need. Great car, great review. Thanks Paul!
great review Paul as always, bring on the raptor review we cant wait !
Just want to say, I live in California and this channel funny enough is my go to place for car reviews. Good stuff on this channel!
Hey mate, thank you so much for your amazing reviews. Just got my Wildtrack in Luxe yellow and I’m over the moon. This is my first Ute ever and honestly I’m enjoying every bit of it. Opted for 4 cylinders and honestly no issues, a decent engine and drives beautifully on highway and in town (knowing Canberra is not really ‘urban’. Had to wait 6 months for mine; would have been another 9-12 months for a V6, which is another factor behind my choice of a 4 cylinders. As you say in your review, the engine is very very good. Highly recommended. Cheers, Marwan
Paul if you're not needing to tow much, would you advise the 2.0L or the V6, considering performance, fuel economy, etc?
That was a bloody good review thanks Paul.
Love it, great review as always. Those bars on the tub (rails??) above the tonneau cover are awesome. Will definitely increase the utility of the roller cover. It will be interesting to see how many people choose the 4 banger as opposed to the v6
I purchased this exact color and model, since the Philippines doesn't have the V6 option.
This is unreal... I love this... Thank you Paul...
Great review Paul... i have the V6 everest on order so have been following your ranger reviews. Im upgrading from a tiguan 140TDi so a bit worried about the infotainment being slow and the main screen in front of you feeling a bit cheap with the big plastic sections either side, but overall i think driving it should convince me.
Ill see, still wanting to drive one to see if that is really the route we want to go. $79k is a jump...
The other car i have on order which i tried to find a review from you was the best selling EV in australia, the Model 3 long range. Looking forward to you doing a review of that! Love the reviews
Hi Paul, I’ve ordered a new wildtrak back in early march,my question are ,are the mirrors good enough for towing a caravan,because of all the gadgets on them ,cost of after market ones I think would be up there in price, and also could you provide more info on the auxiliary switches and how you hook up to them.
Great video. Really like the new tests.
I like the new test track!! Well done guys!
Love the new review format! Great, comprehensive review. Can’t wait for this bakkie to reach SA
The reviews on this channel are so brilliant and thorough
Thanks - excellent review.
Amazing new off road circuit also a very comprehensive review
Great review!... Can't wait for the updated tailgate. It still needs a split rear bench though.
@CarExpert Curious to hear your thoughts on the the BiTurbo Wildtrak vs a DMAX X-Terrain noting there is about at $10k difference. Do you think its worth spending the extra $10k for the ranger or is the DMAX still a good option. Head to head video would be pretty to see.
Always the best reviews
Love the review and the new test also
Hello Paul! Such a pleasure watching your reviews.
Hopefully we can have a full review of the Next Gen everest including its tech features too.
Great content. I like all the new features you guys introduced and learning a lot about car features from your channel. Thank you. It's not all about 0 to 100 races and sound test etc. It's actually about reviewing a car
Nice review, what is the largest off road tyre you can fit on stock rims with stock suspension? 33inch?
Thank You very much Paul for this detailed. Greeting form the Netherlands 🙂
Fantastic, indepth video Paul!
Great addition of the cruise control and lane keeping assist segments, they are one of the most important factors in modern vehicles in my opinion, great great addition to the vid
Does it still have the 220v outlet of previous generations? I use that function in my wildtrak all the time.
What a great review!!
Huge shoutout to the new test of the radar cruise control, hope you do this with all of your reviews from now on!
The USB point by the centre interior mirror shows a real commitment to practicality and thoughtful design details by the Ford design team.
Would love to see a test on the v6 maybe even some towing or weight tests as most of us that have bought the v6 are buying to tow heavy loads
(Tradesmen)
Cheers Paul 👍🏽👍🏽
If there were a second like button I would have hit that too.... thank you for your work. It's awesome! Maybe in the future we will see more iuts comparations :)
Love the extra tests like lane assist etc
Yes and yes, keep those test coming please!
Will do!
Excellent review. Can you please also show the automated parking as well. Otherwise, excellent review
Amazing video love new area and segments
Outstanding review. 👍
I can't wait to see the top of the range Ford Everest 🙏
Another great great car review from CarExpert...this channel should at least have 1 million subscriber..detail videos showing absolute everything..keep it up 🤘🏻
Brilliant review Paul. I think I’ll place my order for the V6
Great design with lots of thoughtful styling and features. I think that the downward exhaust may be to help water suck back if you stall the vehicle during water crossing fording. A big advance in utes that will put Ford/VW well ahead of the market. Thanks for a comprehensive review Paul.
excellent review as always, The Giant warning did a good job to keep you from swallowing the KEY 😂
Hi Paul great video . Have they fixed the rear seat? My teenage kids hate the rear seat of my PX3, the back rest is too vertical, I'm hoping they have reclined it a bit.
Hello which one you can advice ? This one with 2.0 biturbo or 1st gen second hand ranger raptor?
Thanks
Thanks Paul is the step ladder in tailgate an option?
Paul, brilliant test and I like the new tests added. I don't know if I missed it but I did not hear it's load capacity on the tray.
When you said "I will see when my raptor arrives." lol, I was like yeah man, you are the top dog, affording a new car in these bad economies is a blessing, you should enjoy it.
it's load capacity on the tray. Just under 1 tonne ......985kg or something
I love ❤️ how you explain it detail from outside and way through on the road. Wonderful car, can't wait it in South Africa.
Beautiful bakkie, however at a steep price here in SA.
