Im buying a Ranger Raptor in August and I can't stop watching Ranger Raptor content. I'm choosing shelter green because I love how it pops in the sun. I was thinking it would clash with the interior until I looked up green and orange clothes to see from a fashion perspective and I was glad to see it's very commonly paired together and looks good
@@chrisdriner does it sort of change shades in day/night sun/clouds? Back in 98 I had a 96 grand cherokee that was a light gray color that had that effect. It was an awesome color and pretty rare
It has kind of metallic flake that really shines in the sun, but I wouldn’t say that it changes color in my opinion, but to me, it’s absolutely the best color. However, the shelter green color is the only technically raptor color as you can get this azure gray in other vehicles from FORD.
I live in the UK & have now owned my Code Orange Raptor for a year. Best vehicle I’ve ever owned. This is the best review I’ve ever seen. Amazing watch thank you. Going to go & drive my Raptor now👍🏻
Definitely the best show ever especially when you actually take it off road and explain all the details spot on can’t wait for more episodes on the ranger raptor
I love my Raptor 37 but sometimes I want one of these. It's amazing what Ford has done to the Raptor vehicles. There's just nothing like them from other manufacturers. Once you own one of the Raptors, you just can never own another vehicle but a Raptor. Good stuff :) Edit: I wish I could drive my Raptor to see my grandma. She lives in another country so that's almost impossible. Maybe one day :)
Ryan - with the Raptors and most Fords with "auto hold" features, when you brake boost the truck it actually limits power at launch as any brake pressure makes the truck limit the power when you simultaneously "boost" it - for the best time, engage the Auto Hold feature, don't boost it, and just hammer the gas in 4A / Sport Mode and you'll be fine. I've had a Gen 2 Raptor, Explorer ST and now a Gen3.5 (2024) Raptor and they're all quicker this way.
You easily have the best production quality of all the RUclipsrs, it’s like watching top gear uk back in the day. A lot of raptor videos but I would kill to watch you review a standard 2024 Ranger Lariat… please??
Great Video, thanks for the content. I have a silver one with colour coded front bar and arches and think it looks great. Agreed about the sound, before buying one I wasn't convinced about the sound but after driving one (especially a cold start in winter), it sounds great. We don't/didn't get the heated steering wheel in Australia which is a little disappointing seeing I live in the coldest part of the country but overall it is probably the best vehicles I've ever owned. In a world that is going EV (crazy), kudos to Ford! Also, new subscriber!
I lived in CDA for 13 years. Moved in 2020. Was funny to watch you start heading up 4th Of July Pass and recognizing just about every part of that drive. I've done the scenic loop around Lake Coeur d'Alene. Very beautiful drive. I own a 2024 Subaru Outback Onyx XT and my infotainment system has rebooted three times on me and is lagy/janky as all getout. There's been other things I just don't like about it that I didn't figure out until a few road trips. I'm ready to get rid of it.
Ford finally got my attention! I check a local dealership, marked up $10k over MSRP. It will look great at the dealership, maybe not so much this fall.
The sales guy at my dealer told me they plan on a $10k markup but told me to try to negotiate down to $2k and they will probably go for it. I dunno, I have a Tremor and payments almost up and that seems more appealing. We'll see.
@@66racer Best wishes. Economy is down, could get worse. In the end, if you can afford it and plan on keeping it, get it and enjoy it. For me, what I want isn't worth $$ over MSRP. I can easily wait.
@@rondail5675 if the economy was good then I would be more inclined but for that reason I am likely going to keep the Tremor and pay it off. Enjoy no payments. No way would I go for a 6-8% rate either, not sure what they're at now.
As much as I hate to admit it they aren’t sitting at dealers at all lol. I’m talking with in a few hours at least all the dealers within a 500mile radius where I am
@@bryankwong2175 yeah, the salesman told me they can even mark up special ordered ones which I though those had to be sticker price. I just hope I see a Ranger Raptor in person and think it doesn't look as good as videos lol. I really like my '21 XLT front end better than the '24 XLT by miles, new rangers have a Nissan Frontier vibe to me. Raptor ditches that.
Tbh this is the best colour in my opinion. This silver is the only of the pick that actually interested me, something about the glossiness contrasting with all the black trim. Looks awesome.
Definitely the color combination is the best I’ve seen yet on a ranger raptor you were saying about utilizing the bed more you should look into moly panels instead of the rack system you had on your old truck
This is where I live and hunt. That one part around 18 is where I chukar hunt. I have been stuck there twice over the years due to my stupidity. He was smart enough to turn around at exactly the place I was stuck twice!
Dig the content so far especially being here in Washington and I will say I am enjoying my RR a lot more than my F150 R especially size wise. Sooo much more nimble and flickable!
Def wouldn’t choose a Ranger over the new F150 Raptors, especially the Raptor R. Those things are powerhouse trail beasts and the literal kings of off-roading. If you’re going to go Raptor, go all the way.
31:55 😂😂😂 so funny.. I LOVE WATCHING YOUR VIDEOS. I have 2002 long travel Tacoma 2wd and it’s never seen sand. I just purchased 24 onyx xt thinking I’d get into the crawling world I’m also babying it and don’t plan on let it seeing dirt for a while!
Just got my 2024 Ranger Raptor this past weekend. Love these video reviews to see what it can do. We have plenty of off road area in Alaska.! I got it off the Ford lot and it's the blue color (more like a greyish blue) so the orange doesn't really match the outside but I like the trim anyway
Great video! I have the same issues with my Ranger Raptor’s lane keep assist. I either gripe it firm and fight with it all the time or if I grip the wheel lightly and let it do its thing, then it thinks my hands are not on the wheel. After several 1-5 hour road trips I have given up on the lane keep and just turn it off. Cruise works great with keeping distances and such, so I use that and simply cancel lane keep. Hopefully Ford gets enough complaints like ours they update the lane keep software so it knows when our hands are on the wheel.
Awesome adventure video. The main thing that worries me about controls in the screen is if the screen has an issue. My parents have a Ford Edge and the screen has randomly gone all black - I could see that being an issue out on trails when you need to engage lockers.
Anything other than warranty that would keep a person from disconnecting factory power connection to diff locks then add a set of switches & wire directly to get it out of screen ?
I actually like the silver colorway, I love the “skynet/cyber-esque” of it and it goes great with the black wheels. Silver ls a color we didn’t get in Mexico, but we got an orange that matches the highlights of the interior
Pretty awesome roadtrip! Does anyone know if this version of the Raptor has the Hi-Lock transfer case? I know F-150 and think Bronco Raptors have it, but wasnt sure about this one.
Nice video! I enjoyed watching it. Big fan of this truck. I am waiting to come on new color ( marsh gray) in 2025. I am still not 100% sure what color to go… my pic is carbonized gray, silver, black or new one marsh gray 😆.. I subscribed to your channel. Like your content plus you seem cool dude ✌🏼
If us regular people could get this for $57k or less out the door...then it wouldn't be a bad deal. But dealer markups will be the reason why Ford won't sell many of these.
You can but you have to shop around. I ordered mine from Ford and a build date of Sept. 2nd. The dealers will tell you there are no more. That means no more for them to mark up. Ford will build you one. Yeah, there is a wait but worth it I think.
Hi preciate your work. Good video, please be carefull with the sound of road during the travel inside the truck. Is a annoying Bummmmm bummmm, i guest are the tires. Love raptor.
You were smart not to try going through that part of the road near Mattawa. I have been through it more times than I can count. I have gotten stuck twice over the decades. Once when I was young and alone with two dogs. I had to hike all the way to Mattawa to get help. It really didn't bother me all that much back then but my dogs seemed to figure out we were no longer hunting and got bored. It's a long hike. I have never seen anyone put a flag on their vehicle in all the years I have hunted and driven there. Is that an Eastern thing?
A couple of years ago I decided to go through the place in Washington where he turned around. Bad mistake. I got horribly stuck. It took a few people, bikers, and another truck to get me out. That road just collapsed. I used to drive it all the time but no one really maintains these roads. He was smart to turn around. I don't think any truck could go through then and probably not now.
6:16 yea but you don't use the lockers on a day to day basis...it's a use case scenario so having that in the infotainment is not as bad as an everyday function like headlights. Besides, you're not gonna use the lockers every single time you go off the beaten path
It's funny you don't like the Velocity Blue. I love it with the orange. That's why thiers options...I do agree with you on the fuel tank. It's WAY to SMALL. Getting only 325 miles to a tank SUCKS. If it were 25gal, it wouldn't have been so bad. I'm hoping someone will come out with a larger one.
Personally in my NG Everest I would prefer a horizontal central screen you can get much wider CarPlay maps, my partner has Kia Sportage with the twin 12.3” it’s amazing.
How low can you air down without needing to get rims that are meant to hold the bead more securely? OEM rims aren't meant to be aired down very much, are they? Or is it not an issue unless you get closer to 10 psi or less?
I must be old. Since when did 18 mpg become good mpg for a midsized truck? Isn't that what full size trucks supposed to get? What do heavy duty trucks get then?
I wouldn't take it thru a car wash. I used a touch less and heard a very loud pop. Think ford will have to stiffen the roof like GM had to do with none sunroof models. You are lucky my truck rattles like crazy but so far that is the only complaint except a few weird shifts
I'm super late to this party because poor and cant afford a $1000+ dollar car payment. But the aftermarket 35 gallon gas tank has me wanting one. And I'm not even a truck guy!

Anyone else irked that they created yet another tire category? (Between mild AT and Aggressive AT).. I get it but it gets tricky keeping track of them all.
Chevy fans comparing the headlights controller to the Ford's locker controller is like comparing apples to oranges. Most people need their headlights far more often than a locker. Having a computer screen go out or other computer screen issue in the Chevy for an extended time is going to be far more intrusive than not having access to lockers. Dumb
In Finland, if you register the Ranger Raptor as a passenger car, it costs 137000€ without options and if you register it as a truck (includes a 90km/h speed limiter and a larger payload) it costs 85000€ without options. This is all due to taxation which is based on emissions (on passenger cars).
Id rather have to go into the touch screen to hit a Locker that I'll HAVE to use 3 times a year over the touch sreen for the headlights that I'll use every day or so.... so no touche to Chevy on that one.
Can we get more thoughts of your old Tremor vs the Raptor? On paper the Raptor is leagues above the Tremor but is it WORTH upgrading to is the tough question, real world off-road trails like you do not baja and such. Obvious answer the Raptor is better all around, but not sure it is worth getting into payments for. That is why I do not think I will get it. Will be payment free soon.
The Raptor is so much better than the Tremor it's not even close. Should you get into payments? Obviously only you can answer that. But if you CAN afford either, I wouldn't even look twice at the Tremor. (Still like the Tremor, but it's a nice Ranger. The Raptor is something totally different.)
Champ! How about adding an overlander camping camper to back of raptor ranger truck? Will that affect Raptor ability to deliver power? Overlanding gear adds a ton of weight to a truck!
MPG of this truck is really disappointing. Full size trucks with V8s or with larger turbo V6s, all with similar power get better mpgs. Just seems like this thing should be seeing at least low 20s on highway. Low gearing perhaps?
I don't get why Americans worry so much about the break-in period when manufacturers say it's no longer necessary. With all the technology, engines aren’t as fragile as before, and in other parts of the world, people just drive their cars normally right off the lot.
@@drivingsports Exactly, like I said, it’s an American obsession. Modern cars don’t need this special treatment. Here in Brazil, my brand new Raptor and Mustang GT documentation doesn’t emphasize a "break-in" period. Like in all other places, people just get in and drive without worrying about these outdated practices. 🤷♂
The Tacoma TRD pro is really just an ad for the Ranger Raptor

let me know next time you go off road, or out to the dunes, ill join in my RR as well. I live on the east side. probably get some good b-roll
How low can you air down without needing to get rims that are meant to hold the bead more securely? OEM rims aren't meant to be aired down very much, are they? Or is it not an issue unless you get closer to 10 psi or less?
Really not liking the Canadian pricing on these halo midsize trucks. 80k for this and Tacoma trd pro. Zr2 seems like the bargain here.
Especially when you consider the discounts on the full sized trucks....
Well then don't live in a dictatorship...
I must be old. Since when did 18 mpg become good mpg for a midsized truck? Isn't that what full size trucks supposed to get? What do heavy duty trucks get then?
16:43 - Should this whole door panel and glass flex this much?
Silver matches the skid plate 😊this truck needs ventilated seats, tailgate step and vehicle hold options.
Ventilated seats, sunroof, and blue cruise would have sold me.
I know this a Raptor vid, but that forester looks like a mini explorer
27:05 interesting the mufflers "off-road use only"
which means you could get a ticket on public roads for it being too loud
Not in a decent and free state. Not here in Montana. A blue state sure but thats normal in those "places".
My local Ford dealer in the Puget Sound area is still price gouging and the Ranger Raptor.
Silver is by far the best color on that truck.
I’m buying one
The new "forester" looks more like a Subaru Fordester.
I wouldn't take it thru a car wash. I used a touch less and heard a very loud pop. Think ford will have to stiffen the roof like GM had to do with none sunroof models.
You are lucky my truck rattles like crazy but so far that is the only complaint except a few weird shifts
Totally thought Ryan flipped off the TRX driver at first glance lol

Why wouldnt they make the bedliner included automatically
The premium spray in liner comes standard. You can replace with the molded plastic bed if you like
Does this have lane centering?
Yes. We talk about it in this video.
Id rather have to go into the touch screen to hit a Locker that I'll HAVE to use 3 times a year over the touch sreen for the headlights that I'll use every day or so.... so no touche to Chevy on that one.
With everything you get? That's really not a bad price., for a new truck Remember this has 400hp and a warranty.

Required on the dunes so you can be seen over the ridges. (And nobody accidentally jumps over/onto you.)

Obvious answer the Raptor is better all around, but not sure it is worth getting into payments for. That is why I do not think I will get it. Will be payment free soon.
The Raptor is so much better than the Tremor it's not even close. Should you get into payments? Obviously only you can answer that. But if you CAN afford either, I wouldn't even look twice at the Tremor. (Still like the Tremor, but it's a nice Ranger. The Raptor is something totally different.)
@@drivingsports ah man giving me too much to think about haha. The mpg almost sounds better with the raptor too
Champ! How about adding an overlander camping camper to back of raptor ranger truck? Will that affect Raptor ability to deliver power?
Overlanding gear adds a ton of weight to a truck!
Filling up that expensive gas tank gets old pretty fast. 15mpg is acceptable? Nice truck though.
It must be sad to be a poor boy.
MPG of this truck is really disappointing. Full size trucks with V8s or with larger turbo V6s, all with similar power get better mpgs. Just seems like this thing should be seeing at least low 20s on highway. Low gearing perhaps?
You missed shelter green
When I placed the order, Shelter Green wasn't an option.
I don't get why Americans worry so much about the break-in period when manufacturers say it's no longer necessary. With all the technology, engines aren’t as fragile as before, and in other parts of the world, people just drive their cars normally right off the lot.
Documentation say it's necessary. So we go with that.
@@drivingsports Exactly, like I said, it’s an American obsession. Modern cars don’t need this special treatment. Here in Brazil, my brand new Raptor and Mustang GT documentation doesn’t emphasize a "break-in" period. Like in all other places, people just get in and drive without worrying about these outdated practices. 🤷♂
