2024 Ford Ranger Raptor Quick Review

Рет қаралды 309,829

Ай бұрын

The 2024 Ford Ranger Raptor ($55,470 starting in the US, $77,945 starting in Canada) is all new and comes equipped with a 3.0L twin-turbo V6 making 405 horsepower and 430 lb ft of torque. It’s equipped with Live Valve FOX shocks, locking front and rear differentials, and a new electronically controlled two-speed transfer case. But does the Ranger Raptor live up to its potent spec sheet and handle the dunes with ease? And is it worth the hefty price tag it asks for as a mid-size truck? We hope you enjoy the episode.

Speaking of games. Right now I'm enjoying Wildlands. My primary weapon is the AK-12. A really good alrounder. High firing rate, fits a 50 magazine, a grande launcher and gets really powerful once you upgrade it to level 30. Lately I switched it for the G2. Also fits a 50 mag, a grande launcher, scopes and suppressors. Buy far not as powerful fully upgraded. But has a noticeable higher firing rate. Love it.

This white powder is widely used as a corrosion resistant coating on metal surfaces either as part of an electroplating process or applied as a primer pigment.

The assumption that the new Toyotas will be more reliable is just that. Apparently there are reliability issues w the turbo hybrid fours, and TFL’s Tacoma’s front differential failed when doing mild rock crawling that it’s competitors had no problem handling. Toyota claimed it failed as designed to prevent more serious damage. So basically when the going gets tough when you really need to be able to rely on your truck, it breaks on you ‘as designed’…

I mean, most people don’t use a truck for a truck anymore. That’s why a 5 1/2 foot bed is standard because nobody can drive anything bigger when it has four-doors and a 6 1/2 foot bed that tends to be too cumbersome for most people. That’s why you still only have a 5 1/2 foot bed on a full-size truck. Which is absolutely ridiculous. At least this is a 5 foot bed on a midsize truck. That makes more sense. Love the video though.

I love it when smaller cars get the top treatment like when the Cayman got the GT car treatment, or the 1 Series got the M treatment This is just that, the Ranger getting the Raptor treatment Although, this car has an air of Caymanism, like it not having amber headlights because if you want that you have to get the F-150 or the Bronco, and the F-150's trombone loop for better sound? I remember I heard that wouldn't fit in the Ranger but it still sounds like an excuse Porsche would give for like the GT4 RS not getting a manual because it doesn't fit while it not being incredibly convenient by not cannibalizing 911 GT3 sales But yeah, I love this! ❤️
