@TFLtruck you should have Tommy do the roller bars slip test and Tumbleweed Ranch in the Nissan!!!

Just seen this nissan truck at at your studio. Was on vacation and got to see your place. From east TN.

Isn’t carmigo in direct conflict with your own TFLBids? Shouldn’t you be eating your own dog food? Shows very little trust on your own solution when you’re ok at taking money to advertise the competition…

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 ?

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. 😁

What is tall? I am a little over 6'10" 300lbs. You think enough room for me?

@@richards1191 I’m 6’5” and about 240 with room to spare. I would sit in one and see how it fits.

I have a 3.5 ecoboost f150 with over 250k miles on original engine and turbos. The idea that they are unreliable is because they are turbochargerd is an outdated notion. Just bought the Ranger and loving it so far!

@@jasononeal7139 Actually it's a proven fact. EcoBoost have multiple class action lawsuits for being garbage.

I'm sorry, but it isn't as capable as a TRD Pro.

truth be told this is the only down size of the trucks in this class ... all avg about same as full size once ...

I average 21 with my titan highway.. love nissan

We just drove from TN to FL and back, very comfortable drive, my (normally touchy) back gave me no issues. Love my 2024 Frontier SV long bed!

the ford 2.3 was faster... the rest of the ford ranger is junk all around... i word at a ford dealership and see them trucks falling apart from band new...

@@JOHNJ0HN9111 no clue what you’re taking about. I’ve owned my Ranger for a couple years now and never had one issue. I’m willing to bet if you worked say a Toyota or Nissan dealership where they work on them you’d say the same thing.

1sec faster does not mean anything. Smh.

I'm the opposite. Well in my case, supercharged. No desire to have to deal with peasant class naturally aspirated torque curves.

Definitely never drove a Ridgeline then

@@MeltingRubberZ28 Ridgeline is not a truck.

I drove mine on a 4 hour trip and averaged 25.1mpg doing the speed limit, 2023 Pro4x

@@dethtopedophiles3870sweet! i got mine to 28.3 mpg on a 4 mile trip tank gave me 545miles til empty

​@@dethtopedophiles3870don't trust the onboard calculator. Mine is off by about 20%

​@bkmark18 I'm hopping to get A Sv king cab in the near future😊 has balls ! Test drove on but didn't get to pound on it! So I'm planning on asking the rep if we can go the highway to the exit 2miles down the highway to get a real test drive!!!

Bro tacomas are anemic tin cans that ride like shit and let all the wind noise in, I don't understand why everyone shills them so hard

I got a paid off 14 P4x and would not trade either

The Tacoma is indeed a miserable thing called a truck.

I still have a miserable 1998 tacoma with 660,000 miles. Just absolutely miserable. It never quits. Im pissed

​@@Jeff-sp7bgyour '98 tacoma has lasted that long because it actually has a real engine in it.

Then you have to worry about that turbo crapping out because they put too much power through that little engine.

The only advantage?? What about the Ranger having WAY more power!

I dont care if a turbo 4 banger ford is faster . I want a truck that is capable offroad and for hauling and lasts 250,000 miles+ . If i wanted to drag race ill drive my vette.

You know what, that makes sense why I wasn't able to brake in time before I was in a car accident with my 2022 ranger. I reacted fast enough, but the brakes were very spongy

@@DesertWolfpupford brakes are notoriously spongy in a lot of vehicles.

The Tremor is definitely the way to go it seems!

Test drove a ranger , the brakes were horrible. Bought the Nissan

@@peterrooney9461 witch one?

repeat perry

Too soon to know that.

EXCUSES, EXCUSES, EXCUSES!

Ranger was rated number one in reliability by consumer so that is pretty funny what you just said

Not necessarily. There are a lot of turbo engines out there with crazy high mileage on them.

@@robertchapman4488 there’s quite a few articles about how those awards are bogus, people paying other people off. Turbo gas motors NEVER last as long as naturally aspirated engines.

And real power steering

That Gen2 TGDI powertrain in Ranger is well proven & immensely powerful. Ppl getting up to 400hp easily & reliability. Have '19 Ranger XLT FX4 that's been impeccable. Just an awesome truck. Truck looks & drives like new after 4yrs /46k mis of hard use. Nissan is def a step up from old one .. & hands dwn way better then Taco. Still though always been a Ford truck guy & new Gen Ranger is a home run.

Nissan. Looks really good but the interior is really small not enough hip room in 160 pounds at a height of 5foot 9 and I don't feel it's wide enough for me cus that stupid center console takes up too much room the old frontier I fit perfectly fine

I went from a Tacoma to the 22 frontier and don't regret it

Would be pretty funny in lowered, big sway bar NISMO version

I have the same vehicle as you. Love it!

No thanks ill keep my 91 gmc cyclone

Exactly. I could care less if a truck is 1 second faster on a 1/4 mile. I want it to be capable offroad and go 250,000+ miles/20 years

“Couldn’t” care less. Get it right.

Also can’t forget about the suspension and shocks which play an important role in aiding a vehicle to stop if you notice the Ranger nose diving at hard breaking and they do in fact have a softer suspension set up with a lot of body roll

@@billyrowland12 Yup, the Ranger feels very tippy, I've yet to drive the new Frontier, but own a Tacoma, and the Tacoma feels much more stable than the Ranger

ranger raptor coming in 2023 3.0 TT. but that’ll be a 70k+ pricetag for a friggin midsize lol also current ranger w a 5 star tune and downpipe alone were running high 12s! pretty impressive. For someone who dropped 2 grand into my taco to make it run 13s I’m pretty jealous lol

its pretty unimpressive in the bronco

@@jeffforbes70 the 2.7 in the f150 is awesome. very fast, very peppy, good mpgs, and tows 8000lbs

The GMC canyon is coming out with the turbocharged 2.7 l it will be the class midsize leader in power

@@hawkermustang that’s a 4 cylinder right?

I wouldn’t say it was aftermarket tuned.. it’s a Ford Performance tune you can get from Ford. Keeps your factory warranty as well.

The Nissan's transmission blowing up would stop it pretty quickly too. 😂

Turbos give them that jump also means it probably gets to it max power way faster

@@TalkingHands308 I haven't heard of any issues with the 9 speed's as this is a standard transmission not a CVT

@@oogleboogle123456789 While their CVTs were definitely the worst, Nissans have all kinds of transmission (and engine, and electrical...) problems with their vehicles that are not related to their CVT...

But then in the second brake check I was looking closer and while it seems the brakes were pressed about the same time. It looked like the Nissan front end dropped harshly while the Ford seemed to squat all around more. I would be curious to see the control differences between the two when braking under load and braking in adverse conditions.

@@calebbearup4282 I went up to Estes Park CO from Arvada Colorado this last Saturday. There must have been some Nissan event because I saw just about every configuration of Frontier pulling a twin axle trailer with either a black or tan Can Am X3 on the trailer. There had to be at least 15-20 I passed, they were headed south down 119, which would be mostly downhill but in the mountains there, it's up down up down. They seemed to handle the load pretty well.

New Ranger comes with Disc brakes all round with option of 3.0 TT diesel and Ranger Raptor has 3.0 Petrol

@@titanx04 US Spec rangers only get the 2.3 ecoboost. We don't get the 3.0 or raptor variant here

@@JJsGA Shane was talking about the latest generation Ranger that launched in Australia several months ago. That model is not being released in the US until 2024. The older model was never sold in Australia with the 2.3 Ecoboost. Te only came with turbo Diesel engines. Through the years there were a few different engines, 2.2 and 3.2 and then 2.0 Biturbo.

That’s what I was thinking also

ALWAYS.

Not Nissans. They went with a pure direct injection engine which means in 60k miles it will be clogged with carbon.

Let's be honest, Modern Nissan trucks and reliability/longevity don't belong in the same sentence. Lol

@@RammSnipe Nissan cars, yes. Their trucks are pretty solid.

Yeah, don't miss the recall campaign that mixes your oil and coolant into butterscotch on that Nissan. I loved my Nissan Frontier VQ40DE but that defect really soured me on buying another Nissan Frontier.

It’s turbocharged. So it will experience more issues early on, guaranteed. Meaning also lower resale value.

@@paintup46 an that’s just your opinion, nothing more

@@paulhunter9613 Not an opinion at all. Turbocharged gas engines have never been as reliable as a turbo diesel or N/A engine. That is an absolute fact.

@@paintup46 not a fact at all, just your opinion

@@paulhunter9613 Not an opinion at all. If you’re not familiar with cars why are you commenting?

I love mine! Just got a brand new one a month ago. NA big 6 and hydraulic steering. It's bad ass!

Thinking the same thing. I’m in the market for a tuner for my Ranger and nobody has done a video like that.

A 5Star ranger would be sick. Then call it the tsunami.

If you have a warranty, your best bet is the ford performance tune installed by the dealer

@@sgillen12 TFL has a video of a ranger tuned with 5star

@@gunsandgranola7262 yeah I’ve seen that one but I wish they could make a video where they compare a couple tuners.

if Ford ever puts out the USA Ranger!!😂😅😂😅. plus Colorado will cost an Arm and a leg 😅😂

@@brad4527 bud, tell me what vehicle ain’t expensive now days. They are ridiculous…..

@@semiauto3148 yes sadly they're ! I want a Frontier Sv Kingcab so badly

@@brad4527 I had a 2007 Nissan Frontier nismo 4x4. It was a good truck…Nissan wouldn’t fix a recall that kinda pissed me off. But over all it was good…the new ones look pretty good. Good luck bud.

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.

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.

Mine has the 3.6 v6. It’s pretty quick but won’t beat an eco boost

Stay Tuned

@@TFLtruck Ooo, good hint as to what is replacing the Bronco.

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.

Some quality brake pads makes a huge difference

You mean get a a truck that could at least tow something

well I'd love to see what 2024 has in store for the Ranger, though I'm not a fan of that Twinke shifter 😢 love the Frontiers bad Ass shifter!! I wish some would do a test drive with the auto shiftter in Manuel mode and shop where the RPMS are when in Manuel mode. That would definitely catch some eyes!!

Those turbos give them better acceleration and it gets to max power faster

That seems like something GM would do, you have to ask yourself, is GM the company you want to follow?

@@Steve-yr5vi Except Nissan, Toyota, Dodge, Jeep have all done this before. Not everyone wants a sensitive boosted peanut under their hood with integrated turbos high repair costs.

The Titan being discontinued is a rumor started by auto journalist who speculated on it based on their withdrawing it from the Canadian market, Nissan North America stated they don’t plan on discontinuing the Titan in the US anytime soon

​@@Steve-yr5vimodern GM trucks are leading the pack in blowing engines lolol
