I drove mine from California to Alabama back in may with a 8500 lb trailer and about 800 lbs on the truck bed (yes I moved). It drove just fine.
Drove to California and back again with another trailer (get the remainder of my stuff) last week and drove fine again. These little trucks put in work. For this latest trip the trailer was about 2,000lbs total with a camper shell and two 100lb German Shepards in the back… so practically empty truck bed.
People underestimate turbo motors all the time. This towing alone proves how far ahead it is above the competition (Tacoma, frontier, etc.)
The Taco has 265 Lb Ft of torque and 275 HP from a V6 the Ford 2.3 Turbo 4 is making 275 HP 310 Lb Ft Torque and with the Ford Performance Tune it goes up to 310 HP 370 Lb Ft Torque
Only reason why I did not buy a Tacoma was because it did not offer a turbo, but the Ranger did! I just wish my Ranger had the interior quality of a Tacoma.
i think the doubt mainly comes from the reliability aspect that i hear about a lot. i wouldn’t really know much about it, i just keep hearing old heads and car heads say shit like “gimme a v8 all day it’s built to withstand the pressure” and shit like that. we’ll just have to see whenever these rangers hit 200k miles.
@@dameiondarthard3878 I wouldn't put an Ecoboost 2.3 against the old LIma 2.3. The Lima 2.3 was a dog, but you couldn't kill it. Only time will tell with the Ecoboost.
That really good towing test. Since it towing limits is 7500.
I just bought and shipped a 2023 Ranger here to the UK. I'm looking forward to trailering my Foxbody to the dragstrip this summer. I have no doubt it will be just fine.
I just put some sumo springs on my truck helped quite a bit with the sag and pretty cheap easy route to go to lift up the rear. Thanks for the video man I love that you don't take it easy on the trucks!
Ford should be paying you bud ! Nice video , love your 7.3 content as well !
I love my 2020 ranger lariat comfortable daily over 25k miles and no issues Tacoma’s always want to over take me for no reason until they get gappped by the ranger danger😂
I don't know why they'd bother trying, Taco is slowest in class and Ranger is fastest by far.
Thanks Colton! I bought in January a 2021 Ranger Tremor. Was wondering how it may pull a RV trailer with a max GVWR of 5500lbs. No concerns after seeing your test.
I have a 2019 Sport 4x4 and I have been pulling a 2020 Flagstaff E-pro 20 BHS for 2 years. No real distance so far to our favorite lake, but it tows just fine.
I have a 2020 Ranger and pull a 4600lb travel trailer. Ive never had an issue
It does good. Just get a decent weight distribution hitch with sway control. Also consider the ford performance tune. It takes it from good to very good.
They say max tow weight is 7500 but i see its got much more but wouldnt want to go over Suggested Max weight too many times
These "small" trucks of today are engineered with more power, torque, and fuel economy than the v8s of the 2000s. People don't realise we used to tow with a v8 that pushed 220 ish hp and 230 ft lbs of torque in 1990
Yup! I have a 2022 ranger and it’s nothing like the old rangers in size. It’s closer in size to a 2006 Silverado 1500 I had than a frontier or Taco
Thank you for this awesome test! Learned more things about Ranger, very capable truck, really impressed! Thank you for making this video!
If you’re going to be towing heavy with your ranger you should get the Ford Performance tune. Mine is leveled and on 32’s like yours and that tune helped out tremendously. I tow a travel trailer totaling 22 ft and a trailer full of lawn equipment, not nearly as heavy as this load but probably has more wind resistance with the travel trailer. I’ll merge onto the interstate and before I know it I’m doing 80 without even thinking about it. I think you gain about 60 lb/ft and maybe 50 hp. I can’t remember exactly but somewhere in that ball park. Also for trailer brakes I use the Curt Echo Bluetooth controller. It does fine. But if you want to keep the emergency braking (and adaptive cruise if you have it) you have to get the one supplied by Ford which is a lot more expensive and a PITA to install so I’ve heard. I don’t usually use cruise control when I’m towing and definitely wouldn’t use the adaptive CC. I’ve lived without automatic emergency braking my whole life so that wasn’t worth it to me.
Hey bud, i have the fox suspension kit with K02s on em, is the tune worth it? Would i have to use better fuel?
I towed 5000lbs with my 2019 Ranger and honestly forgot it was back there most the time, and through mountain curves it drove perfectly normal.
Also, my drinkers side window rolls up really slowly, so he’s not wrong about that.
TY. Nice. "Won't be anything crazy today", for you! City guy says, "You really know how to tow stuff"!
Rating is probably all safety. It seems that the trucks' rating is base on drivers that have never towed and making machine compensate for that. I have had 9500lbs behind an 2012 5.0 f150 (rated for 7200lbs) with TBC added, I felt fine. An exact same truck with 3.5 eco starts at 9000ish lbs and up for rated capability. Same frame, axle and brakes as all other f150s.
What rear end an wheel base did you have? My 5.0 2012 is rated for 9200lbs from the factory with 3.73 and long wheelbase. 7200 just sounds to low for the 5.0
These midsize trucks are close for size and capabilities of what fullsize trucks from years ago use to be. For the average homeowner these trucks fill the needs of most buyers, but people want bigger because why not I guess.
I had a 2000 Silverado with the 4.8 and my ranger out performs that truck in every way possible. I do have the ford tune on the ranger so that helps.
Do you ever run the high test fuel in it? Decent little gain in power towing. They also offer a 93 octane tune straight from ford for extra hp trq.
I would not even begin to think about towing that load with my F150 3.5 ecoboost. Interesting!
Plain stupidity on the ranger owners part. Lol. That’s why there’s a new recall
Hey I know these roads haha. Good test on the ranger!
Ha! I was going to take mine in for service if the front passenger window. It’s sooooo slow! I laughed when you said that
Just watch for Fuel dilution 10% + In the oil I have a 21 Ranger been in the shop twice. 34 days out of service. The claimed fix was changing the injectors and High pressure fuel pump 2k miles later oil level is rising with fuel in oil, heading for 3rd trip to dealer. Just under 25k total miles.
I will keep an eye on it for sure.
It's a DI engine... This is nothing new. I've owned 7 different brands with it. They all had fuel smell in the oil. Ford even said the oil level raising won't hurt the engine
Up 2 quarts of gas in the oil in 2k miles is unacceptable in my book.
I have a 21 Ranger with 39k. I've never had an issue with oil dilation. I use Mobil 1 5w30 full synthetic with 7k oil change intervals.
these rangers are fun to tow things with. got a 19 when they were giving them away lol
Giving them away? Lol. Since the ranger came back to the united states it moved into second place really quick if I recall correctly in regards to sales. Chevy just came out with their new twins, they are looking good. Now it will be fords turn for the new ranger.. Which looks good on the oversea's model so far. Styling kinda looks like the maverick, hope they change that for the US version.
I want to keep watching your videos that’s why I subscribed- but towing like that with out a brake controller and lack of seat belt is definitely endangering yourself and others - set a tone with safety -a seat belt saved my life 7 years ago, my work partner didn’t have his on - I can attribute me wearing my seat belt that day to my 3 year old daughter, who made it her job to say “daddy buckle up” it started a trend in our family I hope this comment will start a trend in your videos - have a great Christmas god bless
I will do better.
Haven’t seen these things tow a good bit of weight, I’m sold on it now compared to a taco I was looking at.
They are awesome little trucks!
I was debating on one of these to tow my Jeeps around. Everyone said the Ranger wouldn't do it. Even though loaded up with the heaviest one I've had, the trailer scales at 5900 pounds
It would handle that well!
If you get the ford performance tune, it’ll blow your mind! 315hp 370trq on 91+ only
Pretty impressive power for a small truck. I wouldn’t take it on a hill though. With no trailer brakes it’ll probably cook off the trucks brakes pretty fast.
That's what engine braking is for saves the brakes for when you really need them
@M. L. Before a trailer brake controller? That's ass-backwards lol
@@tenskeeze the engine braking on a ranger with a 2.3 4 cyl towing a 9000 lb load would be almost completely useless. He would definitely fry the brakes on this truck going down a long hill without trailer brakes.
Wow! Be very interesting how they perform in the long term. I'm not impressed with the V6 turbos in the f150's. Too many moving parts, too much fuel pressure, too many failures, especially compared to the 5.0. So, this will be very informative and interesting! I hope it works out in the long run. Ford should be paying you for what your doing! -for sure. Thanks
Well i don't know what ecoboost f150s you've been in, the 2.7 is hands down the best and most reliable engine ford puts in the f150 other than the 3.3 v6. The new 5.0 is nowhere as reliable as it was especially with cylinder deactivation. My brother is the second owner of his 2017 3.5 ecoboost, it currently has 227k miles on it, he owns his own construction business and is constantly putting a shit ton of miles on it every day. He hasn't had any issues with it at all. Before that he had a 2012 with the 5.0 and absolutely hated it. At the end of the day, its your money and your going to buy what you want, but i would never buy the 5.0 over the 2.7 or the 3.5, other than the roar of that v8 theres no reason for the v8 when the ecoboost do everything but better.
Wow I’ve actually owned all the engine lines in the f150 and the one i disliked the most was my 2019 5.0 currently in a 22 2.7 and it pulls like a champ.
Glad I saw this, will be towing a trailer from Anchorage, AK to Houston, Tx in a few months. Thanks
Did you use a brake controller and stay below your limits?
No, I just put it into tow mode and it went great!! I also drove the speed limit. But in Wyoming drove under the speed limit due to it being 90mph. No I am not kidding. @@FranklinHicks-qs4gs
Being posted 5 months ago, you still liking the turbo'd motor?
Pretty awesome your putting one to the test, I'd love one of the new rangers to run errands, parts trips and fuel/tools to the fields. I've seen a lot of them around my area over the last few months, love the looks of the couple of Tremors I've seen lately too.
If you do get one you can real easily swap different parts into a XL from a lariat. I jacked some power heated seats and led headlights out of one
@@dracodrake45 u find that in a junkyard already??? I'd love some LED taillights from a lariat for my XL
@Katarina_Reset Yea I got mine off ebay from a wreaked 2019
Have a 2021 xlt with the fx4, it’s amazing. My brother has a Tacoma but I still love my ranger, can do anything you need unless you’re a heavy duty guy
Power is enough for that on occasion. Watch out for the frame though if you get into any bumpy whoop da whoops that bottom out the rear suspension
so ill be good buying a 20 ft enclosed? dont plan on going over the 7500 limit. just trying to make a toy hauler/camper for dirtbiking. 2020 fx4. was thinking a 7.5x 18 but i think i need more room then that.
I'd sure think so, towing with this one has been very good almost always over 7500lbs
Get a Livernois tune.. The tow tune makes a huge difference.
pretty nuts what that little truck can tow
Don’t know if you will reply to this or someone else will but I’m missing dose 58 and 63 which are the left and right trailer turn signals fuses. Dose your truck have them or did you buy them and put them in. I know I need a break controller but when I hooked a trailer up the turn signals didn’t work so I’m trying to figure out why
I'm unsure, I can check
I don't think I'd want any tubo'd gas motors in a new rig.
So I am splitting the payments on a new John Deere 4052M with bucket loader and 6’ bushhog I have 2022 ranger lariat with towing package. The trailer is a 22’ dovetail you think the truck can haul it?
Most defitenly
Trailer brakes should be standard on trucks. The government needs to mandate it.
I agree…but we have stupid back up cameras in every soccer mom vehicle because people cant turn their head. I put electric brakes even on our small utility and cargo trailers, its so much better for those sudden stops when someone cuts you off. Also the brakes on the trucks last longer.
100% cant believe trucks come with tow package and no trailer brake
Would a 2011 6.2 to 7.3 Godzilla swap be a feasible idea to you? Or just put a 6.2 back in with some modifications?
Great videos for sure!
Towing it is all well and good. But a load like that on a truck that small is dangerous. That trailer will manhandle that truck.. still cool though. Stay safe 🤜🏻
I mean. You can tow 20k lbs with an SRW 2500 that weights 8k. This weighs 4500 and was towing 9k. Which is more dangerous
That was impressive.
I'm curious how the Ranger is holding up a few months later? Have you been towing this load with it often?
Yes, I will make an update video soon
Thanks! Been pondering whether to go Ranger of F150 for hauling my setup. I always like to go with the smallest rig that'll work comfortably, since towing is just an occasional thing for me. Looking forward to the update!
@@reidwightman8756 get the 1/2 ton. It will tow better, you’ll have more room in cab and will hold its value better. Rangers are good vehicles, you’re just limited from the jump. A 1/2 ton you have some growing room built in at least.
Tow limit? What tow limit?
This is new for you. Is it worth it compared to the f150?
The big benefit I saw in it was the mpg and the size. We spend alot of time running to get parts all over the state, 95% will fit in the back of this truck. And it's nice to have a smaller truck in denver where alot of parts come from. The f150 I had did pretty good on mpg for what it was but this ranger is hanging out ar I understand 20 mpg even with the taller more aggressive tires.
@@ColtWR It's a pretty good looking truck as well. Hey do you or anyone you know run any aftermarket parts on the 7.3l godzilla? I've got one and I'm trying to figure what I can do to improve mpg.
@@GO-MAKE-EM-LOUD no info on good aftermarket parts yet for mpg. If I find some I'll let you know
@@ColtWR Thanks man. I really appreciate the great videos. Keep it up.
I'm starting to think I should have bought a Ford Ranger instead of a Tacoma.
Good video
I sure like mine, I was also stuck between the two before I bought my ranger.
@@ColtWR how do you think the Tacoma will handle pulling overweight loads?
@@tsafa It's hard telling because I have not towed with a Tacoma however given their history they seem to handle any kind of abuse very well
@@tsafa The biggest reason why I went with the Ford Ranger was for 4 wheel disk brakes. As I understand that Tacoma still has rear drums I was very disappointed with that given The Times and technology.
@@ColtWR that is correct. My 2022 Tacoma has drum brakes in the back. I thought that might be a good thing because they're good for 150k miles. Less maintenance. With the discs every time the pads need to be changed they tell me that the rotors need to be changed too.
Please update after result since about 5 months ago????
Since reliable? Would keep any longer or nah?
I'll make a video soon!
@@ColtWR great! Looking forward!
I feel sorry for the poor bastard that buys this truck used lol
Ikr 😂😂
Even out the weight distribution of the trailer with the tractor
Get a tuner. Makes a world of difference.
You damn near lifted it up off the back axle when you were loading it onto the trailer.
Common practice around here lol
Does it hurt that the engine was cold and he was pushing 4000 RPM? How reliable are these? Thinking of getting one with the 2.3.
Well define "cold" the gauge on the dash probly doesn't read until 100 degrees. Engine was darn close to it. Where it would hurt an angeine is full throttle between 🤷🏻♂️ 0-30 degrees. Much larger temp shock to components.
Enjoying your content
I thought the maximum capacity is 7500lbs.
Ranger can tow 9000lbs??
Yes, I am overloaded technically
New to towing but could the ranger tow a 32ft 6900lbs Travel trailer?
I wouldn't be concerned about the weight. However, 32 feet will catch a lot of wind, and in a bad storm, I'd imagine it would get awfully busy trying to keep that on the road hooked to a ranger.
What color is this and trim package? It looks good.
I'll check the door code
What size tires do you have on your truck?
33s
@@ColtWR did you lift the truck?
That’s not really a little truck anymore! That’s bigger than some of the old F150’s!!
No its not
Ya it is, it's almost same size as 2000 f150 I used to have one.
@@tenskeeze Thank you!
I love the old "mini trucks" jusayn
Not bad for a 4 pot
Come on dude, put your seatbelt on, and no trailer brake with a load like that? Don't put others at risk because you wanted to see how fast you could go with a tractor on back.
What’s the point of bitching Karen?
Let that man live his own life. This is America it’s his choice.
@Flux Apex I bumper pull every day for a living; if you have trailer sway, you aren't towing correctly. Always max out your hitch weight(gives you more stability), always run your tires at maximum pressure (better stability, don't worry about tread life). If you do the above and still have trailer sway, you have too much weight above or behind the axle group center. Always try to tow with trailer brakes. If not, drive for conditions and keep an appropriate following distance.
As far as trailer hardware goes, most quality manufacturers and suppliers run a safety factor of around 2, so, as long as your tires can handle the weight, the trailer can carry it within reasonable conditions. When overloaded, don't drive over 60-65mph for long periods of time.
Quit lecturing, hes not your son; This is daily reality, not all people have breaks on trailers.
@Flux Apex the truck is rated for 8k lol
Love the vid keep them coming! Is that the 2.7 turbo v6?
@@Rocadagringa wow!
2.3 I4
Wow! Thats beastly
Does that poor little thing have a transmission cooler or even a way for you to monitor trans temp?
Yep, big ol cooler
@@ColtWR is the 10 speed trans in these things the same one they put in the F-150’s?
Ranger ❤️
It's 4 C motor 2.3 L right??
Yes
I have a 2020 ranger sport 4 Cyl 2.3L, I have never had a ranger and the other day I pulled a 20' trailer loaded with appliances and I was afraid of damaging my small truck.
What year is this ranger?
2020
Is that a Kubota?
Kioti
The poor man’s Kubota knock off
I wouldnt say kubota knock off. You really cant go wrong if you stay with kioti, kubota or a deere. And tbh could be because of the dealer location close to him. Kubotas are probably the best for the the small to mid size department but they can be overhyped, And im a kubota fan
@@George88889 I’m sure they’re fine but just like Korean automakers like Hyundai, they are obsessed with how the Japanese do things, so yeah, it is a Kubota knock off and the Kubota is the better machine.
Id rather see orange and green than red and blue. Kioti makes tractors for bobcat soo apparently they must be doing something right if its to bobcats specs
Nice 👍🏼. Honestly you should go for 12,000 pounds. See what it can do! Lol
Just might lol
I just had the dealership install the ford performance trailer brake controller in my 2022 and the sumo bump stops. I think 10k would be pretty comfortable.
Tire size?
33s"
Trailer brake controller was an option. My 2021 model that I ordered has one.
Dude really couldn’t put his seatbelt on! lol 😂. Bro take care of your Ranger! Your definitely doing damage. It will add up over time
Eh, she will be fine!
A leveling kit? Meh 😒
nothing like advertising your unlawful act all over the place. that being said, nice to see how competent that little truck is
Your going to have to enlighten me on the unlawfulness.
@@ColtWR Gladly!! Your truck is rated to pull 7500 pounds. It is unlawful to pull a trailer and cargo that is over that weight. It is also unlawful to even pull an empty trailer if the trailer is rated to haul more than your trucks rated tow capacity.
@@exjw8623 so here is what I have found that is closest to your concern. This is in chapter 9 of
RULES PERTAINING TO TRANSPORT PERMITS FOR THE MOVEMENT OF EXTRA-LEGAL
VEHICLES OR LOADS
2 CCR 601-4
919.2 The truck or truck tractor unit of all longer vehicle combinations shall have adequate
power to maintain a minimum speed of twenty mph on any grade over which the
combination is operating and to operate on level grades at speeds compatible with other
traffic.
No where does it specify gvwr is a manditory max for the vehicle. It's not recommended by the manufacturer. However I'd beg to differ that with correct coupling and brakes they would call this load "illegal" and would not be subject to a shut down. Given I am searching the comercial motor vehicle rules because for my business that is what I abide by. If this was an RV situation, the rules would be even less.
@@ColtWR this that you quote has nothing to do with legal weights being towed. Look it up on you tube tons of videos including vids with state patrol officers explaining the laws regarding towing. What you quoted is pertaining to actually going and purchasing a permit to carry overloaded or overly long loads. Anyone towing any kind of trailer whether you are a cdl driver or just a person pulling a travel trailer you still legally have to stay within the tow limits and payload limits of your vehicle and trailer.
This is misinformation.
I can register a 2500 to gross 36,000# with a class A and be completely legal. The ranger towing under 26,000# (class D license), but licensed for what it is towing is legal. The no trailer brakes... Definitely illegal in my state. Trailers more than 5,000# must have brakes on every axle.
Manufacture ratings are not determinate of max weight. Spend any time in ND and you'll see srw 3500's 2500's etc posting 35,000# or even 42,000# all day long....
The arm rest sux
Terribly dangerous, just because you feel good doesn’t mean it is. No brakes, no whip until you have to swerve to miss someone. Do it once on a side road, maybe. A few hundred miles at 75 no way.
We haul many odd, over sized, and over weight loads on all sizes of trucks from pickups to semis. I know what "too much" feels like. At no point did I feel this set up was unsafe what's so ever. This truck has better brakes than the 3/4 ton chevy I had and you can take that to the bank.
Hey Brother, how would rate this same truck but with the FX4 suspension? What would the weight limit be with that setup?
