For me it's clearly one of Best, with the inspiration in his older brother just confirms the full potential that ranger can have. I have to highlight this was one of Best reviews I've seen, that transparency gave a perfect idea what is all about. Very complete, absolutely superb👍

You can't buy the F150 Raptor in the UK? Sorry to hear. Next you'll probably tell me you dont have deserts. I just looked on Google earth... holy crap, I feel bad for you :( [really just trying to rub it in haha]

I agree completely how the Raptor makes you feel. Having driven one for a combined 1500 km with a few months between the drives, it is a great vehicle (you can't really call it a car ). It is playful but not fast, it makes you feel untouchable to an extent (famous last words when getting stuck in the mud). The most surprising thing I found was the faster you drive, the smoother the ride. About the driving modes, the button placement is excellent imo, the Focus ST for example has a dedicates "S" button and a drive mode button you need to press continuously to get to the mode you want, inevitably you'll go past that mode because of the lag. Putting in a scroll wheel will complicate things I think. The buttons are a faster way to change modes and it doesn't require a lot of change to the cabin (the centre console in particular). In sum, the Raptor is a vehicle you need to experience to fully understand, because the numbers really mean nothing until you've had a go behind the wheel. The torque is the main figure in the spec sheet though, if only the gearbox could make up its mind at times. If it was strapped to a V8 it would make much more sense. I just love this machine!

I agree 100%. I drive the Ranger Raptor since August 2019 and i still enjoy each and every drive i make. No matter driving on highways, innercity or country roads, it is pure fun. For me by far the best and most entertaining car/truck i have ever owned or driven!

I wish we got that engine here in the states. We get the 2.3 Ecoboost out of the Focus RS but I think I’d prefer a truck engine in a truck.

They fix that in bi turbo diesel last year. In 2.3 Motors is conect with 3 and 4 cylinder issiue i thing. In mijn RR 2.0 bi turbo nothing happends with engine but with the diesel pomp. They fix that last week and the rest of issiues and its great car again. I love it when is good working. Have 60000 km. Great car.

Its an off road truck, you are expecting way too much of it on road i think. Try the hilux, 0-60 in well make a sandwich. But trucks aren't meant to be a fast, sharp handling thing on the road.

Are there some owners here that can speak about reliability? I was considering buying one but started looking after common issues. I found many topics about injector fail, oil pump fail, and-blue system fail, gearbox fail,... And most of the time bad Ford service to resolve the problem. Not very convinced anymore.
