How does a pickup truck stop in 82 feet from 60 mph when the two best stopping production car ( viper acr and gt2 rs) can only manage 87 feet from 60 mph ?
@Doc1855 Жыл бұрын
Our pickup is NOT for sale. Ours is a 11 Ranger XLT super cab 4X4 with a 4.0 V6. I’ve added a K&N cold air intake, 4” FlowMaster exhaust, tuned exhaust manifold, LineX spray in bed liner, skid plates, running boards, custom 2 tone paint,(Silver over Red) custom interior to match the exterior paint colors. It has a LSD, tow pkg, air shocks. Not only can it haul a yard + of topsoil, but it can haul ass. I’ve street raced 2 Chevys. One with a 5.7 V8 and the other with a 5.3 V8. I kept with them until their governor kicked in at 105mph and then my 4.0 V6 Ranger left them… which I was thankful for, as I felt the torque and hp starting to crap out at 110mph. 😁

Most had a soft pedal from the factory allegedly almost all have a little bit of air in the ABS system the online Ranger community says to run the ABS brake bleed process using a scanner without actually bleeding any fluid from the bleeders and it gets rid of the soft pedal feeling.

A Ferrari 430 Scuderia stops from 60-0 in 93 feet, so I'm gonna go ahead and say that "83" foot number on the first brake test was from braking way before the stop line, not because that truck outbrakes a Ferrari. Edit: And now watching the second brake test, they're clearly just cheating it by braking too early. I'm sorry, but no, modern trucks do not brake as fast as a Ferrari 430. Also, if you watch the video in slow motion, both trucks on the second test and the Nissan on the first test *clearly* show the nose diving *way* before the cones.

I've seen a couple comments about appreciating the simplicity of an NA engine. I respect that but I'm not sure I agree in this particular comparison. Turbo set ups aren't actually all that complicated and in this particular comparison, factory tuned. In this comparison, the complexity of the turbo is added to an engine that started out much simpler. the 4 cylinder in comparison to a v6 has half as many cylinder heads/gaskets, half as many camshafts. half as many intake gaskets and exhaust manifold gaskets. two thirds as many pistons, plugs, coils, valves. HOWEVER it actually has one MORE main bearing and a generally stronger crankshaft layout. The intimating looking part as far as maintenance goes is the ductwork for the turbo which is dry and clamped in place generally easy to remove, after which, you are left again with a simple engine.

Someone needs to buy one of these turbo 4 trucks and actually keep it for 20 years and let us know how it does in that period of time....anyone got a blank check, I'll be the Guinea pig on that. A lot of it comes down to maintenance which people tend to skip. My aunt is a service writer at a Ford dealer and says most people are trying to do the 7500-10k oil change intervals on these turbo engines, they don't hold up long when you do that...change the oil around 3-4k and you'll have a very good engine, skip maintenance and you'll pay dearly for it in the short/long term....another thing is to keep the transmission fluid serviced as well, 45-50k fluid/filter change intervals and it'll live a nice long life too, as well as adding an auxiliary transmission cooler. If I recall you can get a 6 foot bed with the Ranger if you get the extended cab, which is all I need. Sadly Chevy dropped the 6 foot bed crew cab option for the 2023 model year, Nissan you can get the 6 foot bed with the extended cab as well...I prefer the longer bed, I guess because my current Ranger has a 7 foot bed....which is extremely handy when hauling sheet goods/building materials. A 6 foot bed wouldn't be too bad, anything shorter and it makes for issues trying to keep things in the bed, stuff just wants to slide or tip out with those shorter beds.

This Nissan is much better looking than Ranger. I don’t know why Nissan doesn’t market Titan and Frontier more aggressively; so much sales potential here.

The Ford would beat the Nissan in a turning radius test for sure, at least the older frontier, dont know if they fixed that issue yet.

Yeah, braking is a lot more important than a drag race, and how fast you can get to 60mph pulling a trailer...who cares if you can't safely stop.

I'll be very curious how the Ford will compare to the new Colorado and Canyon in a drag race. The 4 cylinder in those trucks makes a massive amount more torque than the ecoboost in their higher output versions.

I found a website that does tire comparisons. They don't go into much detail. They compared the ATM to the AT2. Seems to me they concluded (they never really say -- it's just their test result numbers), that the AT2 is more highway oriented and the ATM is more off-road oriented. In snow (light, medium, heavy), or sand, mud, dirt, the ATM was better. Dry or wet pavement the AT2 did better. This suggests to me the cleats of the tread of the ATM are more aggressive, and they look more "blocky" in the pics they showed. Such cleats tend to give braking performance that is lower than a "street tire" would give. Even if the tires were identical, the Nissan might still have stopped shorter. Ford chose the ATM so they've got to live with the outcome.

The Nissan is a totally new platform and drivetrain. The Ranger was an older platform that Ford brought from overseas. Not sure if that would make a difference, but I shopped the New Frontier before I got my Maverick, the dealers had $10,000 markups on an already expensive truck, so I left and never considered again. Based on this test, seems to be a solid choice, even if not as fast as the Ranger.

Not true...Nissan has had the 3.8 L and 9 speed transmission in their 2020 Frontiers. Body change in 2022. So the powertrain has been used for 4 years.
