For a 4 cylinder 270 horses says a lot! Could only imagine how fast this one would be with a 6 cylinder.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Oh yeah! It’s a nice engine option to have and still plenty of power, but the V6 would be great if you need to tow more!

[@jimpalmer4061]

I am hoping for the raptor version in 2022 or 2023 that may have the V6 turbo 300+ hp.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

That'd be super cool! Would be a monster with a V6!

[@arthurmendoza6926]

The new ranger is going to look like the big brother F-150 that ranger is going to be number one

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

It'll be exciting to see the changes on the new Ford Ranger!!

[@dfk09]

Great video! I wonder how this truck will do when the Maverick comes out? $40k is a lot for this truck.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Glad you enjoyed this Ford review! And that will definitely be interesting to see since it has a lower starting price, but also the Ranger will still have a higher tow rating. Very similar trucks though.

[@KentuckyRizal]

Fast and comfy.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Yeah this is a good truck for sure! Very peppy!

[@klownyou1]

I like the color of that one

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Yeah this was a sweet color combo on this one!

[@MiguelRamirez-bn9sz]

Really nice , only needs a spray in bed liner , and maybe a bit off a price drop

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Yeah that'd be a nice upgrade. Don't know why the factory paints the bed. It'll just get destroyed

[@saketshijil9030]

Best Ford pickup I have ever seen

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

The Ford ranger is a nice truck, looks great in this color!

[@n1tlf470]

In another review that I watched, the 4 cylinder eco turbo engine put out 330 hp. What happened to the missing HP? Did they lower the HP for 2021?

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

You can see it on Ford's website stating 270 HP! Not sure what review you watched on it, but that's where I got all the info! www.ford.com/trucks/ranger/models/ranger-xlt/#2-3l-ecoboost-engine-with-auto-start-stop-technology

[@DaveDVideoMaker]

On construction sites in Britain, it’s quite common to see a Ranger. They’re often used as work vehicles.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

That would make sense! We see more Tacoma's on job sites here!

[@DaveDVideoMaker]

@@BrosFOURRSpeed The Tacoma is not offered for sale in Britain or Europe, but we get the Hilux. However, it is possible to import a Tacoma to Europe if we like.

[@prevost8686]

Hopefully FoMoCo has figured out how to build a boosted 4 cylinder engine that the block doesn’t crack on before it gets to 100K miles. Their track record is pretty bad so far. They also need a manual transmission option. Not all of us want a slushomatic transmission in our trucks.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Yeah I'm not the biggest fan of the 4 cylinder. Biggest reason I'd buy another truck over the Ranger

[@MisterMikeTexas]

Would be nice if a 6 speed manual was offered.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

That would! I know Tacoma owners love the manual option!

[@patrickwilson4902]

I need a 6/8 cycle 🛻... not a 4 cycle/ecoboost 🚲... Wanting to see the sky and the Sun .... When I'm driving my brand new truck...🛻.... 🌞 👀 a roof like a Tesla... Halogen headlights!!! What about LED headlights, is it better??? The man that's trying to build-up my credit score from Indianapolis 🇺🇲

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

A higher trim level truck would have a lot of those. But I will say the EcoBoost is very peppy and this is quicker then a Tacoma. So it has its positives and negatives

[@DaveDVideoMaker]

Europe has the Ford Ranger as the only pickup truck by Ford for this market. It’s got a 2-litre biturbo diesel with a 6-speed manual or 10-speed automatic. The electric F-150 recently revealed will not come there unfortunately.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Ranger is a pretty good option. Europe doesn't seem to need jumbo sized trucks like the F150

[@DaveDVideoMaker]

European roads are quite small for pickup trucks.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

@@DaveDVideoMaker Yeah I could see it being hard to drive larger trucks around!

[@DaveDVideoMaker]

However, US roads are quite small, which could be why small cars like the Yaris GR and Volkswagen Polo aren’t available in the US. Oh, and sad news: Toyota said the Yaris GR won’t be coming to the United States, but there will be something with the same engine and the manual gearbox; but it’ll be slightly heavier.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Yeah the Yaris GR would be a fun little hatch for our market! Compete with the Veloster N

cute pick up truck

lol it's a nice small truck

Ok dumb question time... will it pull a pop up camper weighing 37-3800 pounds?? If it will , then it is in the running. I want a truck but it has to do what a truck does,

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Absolutely. You'll feel the weight a little bit. But thats nothing that the Ranger can't handle

[@myplaxismodelisbetterthanyours]

7500lbs with the tow package

[@broeheem2804]

2.3L 4cyl with a TEN-speed trans, and the best it can do in 24 MPG on the highway? Doesn't sound very "eco" to me.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

It's still a truck. Keep in mind a Tacoma gets like 17. Not sure what owners are actually reporting tho

[@broeheem2804]

@@BrosFOURRSpeed - To me, it's really only half-truck anymore..... the other half is still a passenger car, but that's the case with most trucks these days. This is a good start, though, in getting back to the compact pickup. I won't be spending $40K on one, however.... I'm in the process of rebuilding my 4X4 Dakota from the frame up, and will be about $12-$15K into it by the time it's done. Seems like a better investment.

[@nataliebrooks3564]

Probably going to wait to see and drive the new updated 22/23 model since this version has been in production since 2012. Dislikes: Price gouging, these are priced about $8-10k above what they were just 5 months ago, outdated interior, halogen headlights, body roll-much more than full size trucks like the f150, spongey brakes that you have to press into to engage, and a super sensitive gas pedal that you can't rest your foot on. The back seat design and storage is pretty bad as well; after my test drive I saw that theres no reason to fold the seat up and folding the backseat down doesn't even lay flat. The fuel economy isn't impressive, the eco F150 models are putting out the same mpg with a much more capable truck.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Yeah this is the same truck from the European market. So hopefully the new generation is a lot more like the new F150!

[@omisan771]

This truck would be perfect if the 8" screen was stock on all trims. Paying an extra $1000 just to get a touch screen which is standard on all new cars nowadays is a bit ridiculous. Even the cheapest new car in America, the Mitsubishi Mirage, has a nice big touch screen.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

I could see that, but that's kind of how Ford does that with base models, which most people probably aren't buying because of that.

[@markmarino3750]

I bought the 2020 STX here in Canada/chinada, errmm but yeah 38k base model and still get the 3" display is a joke let alone a standard steering wheel to

[@dougp8890]

I just bought a 2021 Ranger XL STX 2 weeks ago and I got the 8” touch screen with mine. I don’t like or need all the fancy stuff that comes with upper trim levels. The XL STX is fine for me.

[@night5091]

Curious to see the Maverick, the Ranger is bit on dated side...particularly the interior. The engine is great though.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

That’ll be interested to see! Probably a lot more changes for sure! I agree the interior needs a full refresh!

[@night5091]

@@BrosFOURRSpeed Yeah Maverick is def smaller. But should be interesting. Hopefully revealed soon.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Yeah that'll be super cool!

[@MisterMikeTexas]

The current Ranger looks similar to the 1997 - 2003 F150 and seems just as big or bigger.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

I can see that a bit. This is actually an older vehicle thats bene in the European market for a few years. Hopefully it gets a huge update soon!

[@MisterMikeTexas]

@@BrosFOURRSpeed The new Bronco, according to TFL and others, is supposed to be based on the next Ranger's platform.

Is there any manual transmission for the ranger. Great vid btw. Pls do more manual transmissions vehicles. 😄

Not that I know of for the US market. A Tacoma would be your best options for that ;)

The Ford Ranger has to have the WORST back seat Storage EVER. Notice those that are giving a review, never show how pathetic the storage is. The back seat does not even lay down flat. The is the only issue I have seen so far, but a big issue if you are going to be using it for moving stuff, because the bed is only 5 ft.

The Tacoma has much more storage and a hard plastic shell on the backs of the seats. And long bed options.

Good luck with those MPG... not even close, even with a bakflip tonneau. Awesome truck with great power but possibly the dumbest tyranny. The 10 speed is horrific. Clunks, is Jerry and can't decide which gear to be in unless I. Sport mode. With more power or a 7 speed it would be nearly perfect.
