That nose heavy landing looked kind of sketchy haha! What a badass little truck! I’m slowly upgrading my 2021 F-150 SuperCab STX 4x4 5.0 in Lead Foot Gray to be more off road capable. Recently added a 5” Billie Bars bed rack with a Free Spirit Recreation Aspen Lite SEI edition tent and a bike mount. Can’t wait to go out on some weekend adventures! Great content as always, much love from Texas!
The truck jumped what seems like 3-4 feet in the air, and had an airtime of at least 3 seconds, not bad I would say and didn't even bump, well absorbed and way better than any other vehicle trying that kind of jump at this level.

Yes I'd like to see how that tiny hybrid battery is going to deliver the same power as this turbo V6 under load. I have a feeling the battery will deplete and then the taco will be left with turbo 4 banger
In my opinion, I wouldn't consider the Ford Ranger Raptor affordable, at least in the U.S. Most dealerships are tacking on a 10-20k markup above MSRP, for that price you could buy older generation mid-size truck and modify the living piss out of it.
I don't think there would be a point unless they went with the 5.2 Predator. Which isn't likely. Bolt-ons, downpipe, and good tune will probably have close to the same power as a supercharged 5.0. Ford Performance might even come out with an official tuning pack that will be factory warrantied.
Great video guy's... Looks like you had lots of fun. Looks like Ford built a winner. Even though it looks like it's a bargain it's still going to be a tough pill to swallow. Cheers!
Here in America they are going to mark these up so much it is not t going to make any sense… it WILL be a six figure truck by the time the dealerships are done.
Well they tied too. They had them going for over 80k in my State. Now they dropped them down to around 60k, because no one was buying it for F-150 Raptor money. 😂
As much as I love the look and selling point of the Ranger Raptor.. just 2 things really worry me as a potential customer: 1) I don't like that virtually every control is on a screen... how are you supposed to be able to adjust these if you're on a bumpy trail or wearing gloves during a cold winter; 2) Anything and everything with "Raptor" in the name gives dealerships a reason to charge "market adjustments" and markups, as well as adding ridiculous aftermarket modifications that aren't OEM, aren't covered under manufacturer warranty (dealer only) and charging more for those than it would have cost if you just bought it without and installed it yourself.
@@nathanroodt437 It had nothing to do with South Africa, it was designed and Engineered in Australia at Campbellfield in Victoria for the global market
I have a 2001 F350 that weighs 5195lbs and I go way harder than any Raptor ever could because the frame was designed to flex and it cost a 10th to run it like a skate board in the X games. These are just going to be seen at Costco picking up bulk items and you know it.
Interior is slightly different than the Aussie spec. For one there isn't any memory functions for the driver seat and no rear window sliders. Seat belt anchors are not adjustable for the Aussie spec although we do get the rear air blowers
Hopefully these will come soon, my guess if those features were probably held off to give something for year to year upgrades. The seat belt adjusters is a weird miss however.
I always prefer the smaller, more affordable version of cars that still offer the same type of excitement 🌚❤️ (You know, I prefer a BMW M2 to an M4, a Cayman to a 911 and a Ranger Raptor to an F-150 Raptor) However, I do suffer from that Caymanism you know, "The Cayman must always be lesser than the 911 which is the more expensive love child", and I see that reflected here with the Ranger not having amber headlights 🙂 It's like "Yeah, this is a Raptor but not so much xd If you want that go for the F-150" which for smaller, lighter car lovers like me is dreadful 🙂 Still, these are great! I see them rolling arround all the time in my country :)
You guys should do the 2-3 day Ford Off-Road adventure course for the Bronco, love the Ranger Raptor. I was waiting for the tree to knock your phone out of your hand.

We can thank Tesla for that in a way. Fifteen years ago when the e92 BMW's were around, we would get excited with 15-20hp increases on the new refreshes. Tesla appeared with it's insane power and suddenly cars and trucks had to counter with far more than 20hp bumps. The competition Tesla brought on the scene was well worth it for everyone.
Can you not take the Raptor badge off? I'm on the Ford website trying to build one and there's no option to remove. That's one of the things I love about my F150 Raptor. It's almost a stealth Raptor with no badges.

Australia and South Africa have been keeping the ranger alive

7 mpg, or 10mpg if you baby the gas pedal.
