I got a chance to see this truck in person at the Canadian International Autoshow last month, and I really liked how it looks in person. Interior felt quite nice as well as I sat inside it. Probably one of my favourite trucks on the market right now, alongside the Tacoma and Tundra.

[@-----------------------------]

Truck guys: this truck is too small for my drive to Starbucks.

[@Powersproductions130]

The 3 prong plug in can power a Keurig though.

[@criznitty]

Ford conditioned Americans that big trucks are the norm and they killed off the Ranger. Now that it’s back, they price them just as much as a discounted F-150. Similar to EVs and Hybrids, they need these trucks to offset their other vehicles to avoid CAFE fines. People want small trucks, wagons, minivans, we were duped that we needed huge vehicles because the profit margins are larger.

[@CarlosOteroC]

Yes Yuri, we are telling you that's not Orange. - Everyone not colorblind.

[@TheStraightPipes]

You guys were so in sync for the visor test 👌🏽 so satisfying

[@patricky3351]

It’s honestly a Red/Orange blend, I work at a Ford Dealership plus I ordered a Bronco in that very color. I’d say it’s mainly red with a orange shine to it

[@TheTrump]

I see the 2.7 Ranger's are hitting the market. I hope to see a video soon.

[@GarageGuerilla]

This Ranger is not all new. It is still based on a decade old T6 Ranger, they just lengthened the wheelbase by 50mm to accomodate future hybrid powerplants.

[@gaivoron]

Are refreshed models even all new ?

[@GarageGuerilla]

@@gaivoron not at all. Its just a major facelift of the T6 platform if you will.

[@mikenb3461]

Maybe they replaced the old 2.3L EB that had 270 HP and 310 torque with an all-new 2.3L EB that puts out 270 HP and 310 torque. 😆 As an owner of the previous generation, I'm not buying that this one is all new.

[@drn13355]

Nothing is "all new". It is funny people called the Ranger old because it was based on a 2011 platform..when the Taco was on the 2005 platform. If something works fine what do you want?

[@benwelter8890]

These utes have existed in australia for a few years now, loved them since release, but cant say they havent had a lot of issues since release. Paul Maric from car expery bought a ranger raptor and had the rear diff replaced very early in its life. Seen reports of them needing engine replacements. But i love these things regardless.

[@TheQuixotic1]

This was a LONG overdue redesign, but it still seems and feels like a half-measure. It is 2024 and the top trim doesn't have: sunroof, ventilated seats, HUD, keypad entry, 60/40 folding seats, or rear vents. Most of these things don't need to be standard, but for them to not even be available options is just a swing and a miss. The quicker Ford can fix those errors AND offer a PHEV option, the quicker they can dominate the mid-size truck market. I will happily "upgrade" from my Maverick Lariat FX4 to a Ranger Lariat FX4 PHEV as soon as they become available.

[@robertb7254]

I read the Overseas Ranger has Rear AC Vents

[@Pikens]

Can it fit a rear facing car seat with the front seat all the way back? That is all I need. My 2019 Ranger could not but my 2017 F-150 Raptor could but had almost too much space.

[@RatBürgerSk8]

Last good ones were the first gen Colorado with the 3.7l Atlas I5 motor. You could option them SCSB or SCLB, they rode nice and low for easy rear load height, and were quite reliable. I'd buy a good condition older truck over pretty much any of these new "small" trucks. They compromise way too much and gain little from it.

I desperately want Ford to bring the Everest (the SUV version of this) to the NA market. I know they probably won't due to the Bronco but it's more family friendly than a Bronco, but with a cool factor that the Explorer lacks.

[@prasmussen8293]

The previous generation has 4 wheel disc, not drum in the back. I like the new Ranger, but other than the bouncy ride on rough roads, I am happy with my Rapid Red 2020 XLT. The Hot Pepper Red shown here does look orangeish is certain light, which is why I got the Rapid Red- no question that it is red.

[@nicholaslasky3754]

Old Ranger didn’t have drum brakes. You’re thinking of the Tacoma

I really appreciate the honesty about the transmission tuning. That is such a bummer and kills the experience of any car. I bought a 2016 Colorado new and it was so terrible to drive because of the transmission tuning that I traded it after two months.

The 2.7 would be a good middle ground between base and the 3.0 raptor. Its a pretty stout and reliable motor. Id be interested to see your thoughts on it now since you basically wrote it off in your fusion sport review a few years ago.

Ok, dudes. Stop making fun of the 2.3 online 4. It's built for durability, longevity , and capabilitiy. No one expects a crazy fast vehicle. I want a commuter that lasts a long time. Review it for what it is and I'll respect you both more. Having said all that i do like your vids. Thx

One big miss is the lack or HVAC vents for the rear passengers, though Tacoma is in this boat too. Still my favourite in the segment and the want is high!

Secondly, I do agree, for $53K(I spec'd a lariat out on their website, and that's what it came to), you'd think it would have it. I do apologize for any snarkiness though, I'll admit the comment about them not wanting us to drive on mixed pavement read as one of those "I absolutely need this and can't drive without it" comments(which I do see a lot of). To me it somewhat implies not really being able to drive. Unfortunately 4WD/A/whatever doesn't replace a bad driver. Ironically around here it's the people who drive 4WD vehicles who are the ones always getting stuck when it's snowy or icy, it seems. (Just to clarify, I don't intend to imply your buddies wife is a bad driver- it can happen to anyone).
