.............................................................
Thanks to Deranged Trucks for lending us the F-150: bit.ly/-Deranged-2502
It’s time for a three-way Ford tug of war!
Starting off we’ve got the Ford Ranger pick-up going up against the Ford Transit van. Starting off with the Ranger, it’s powered by a 2-litre Diesel engine that will put down 170hp & 420Nm of torque. It’s equipped with a manual gearbox along with low range mode, and it tips the scales at around 2 tonnes.
Then we have the Ford Transit. It’s also powered by a 2-litre diesel, but it produces more power, putting down 184hp & 415Nm! It’s also a bit heavier, weighing in at around 2.2 tonnes. So it should be an easy one for the van, right? Well, it’s the MS-RT model, so it comes equipped with a body kit… And low profile tyres! 😬
Either way, whichever comes out on top then has a true challenge on its hands, going up against the Ford F-150 Raptor! This HUGE pick-up houses a 3.5-litre twin-turbo V6 under the bonnet that’s good for 450hp & 691Nm!! It’s also way heavier, tipping the scales at 2.6 tonnes.
Will the F-150 destroy all in its path? You’ll have to keep watching to find out!

I can’t imagine anything more pointless than giving a 180hp van a body kit and performance tires lol.

[@petrolhead9702]

Honestly performance mods that doesnt make sense are usually the most fun, imagine being able to keep up with a warm hatch in a transit, how cool is THAT

[@TerribleUsernameAmirite]

@@petrolhead9702 it’s not any faster though, in fact the aero bits probably just add weight and drag

[@AceVproductionsPC]

@@petrolhead9702 that transit has a worse power to weight ratio than my 1.0 eTSI Seat Leon, it isn't gonna keep up in a straight line with my slow ass car let alone in the corners due to the extra 900kg it is carrying, a luke warm hatch would demolish it and a warm hatch wouldn't even realise the van is trying to keep up

[@darrylmac6150]

How about commenting on 'how pointless it is' that seems more pointless to me. It's cool, so what?

[@AceVproductionsPC]

@@darrylmac6150 it's just too ricery for my taste, it's the same as someone putting a wing on the back of a clapped out Corsa, it does nothing but actually slow it down. I know some people that love it but it's just not to my taste and I'd rather spend the extra money on engine or suspension mods before doing anything cosmetic, especially on a very slow and heavy van

Think a lot of this is down to ground conditions and tyres. Would be nice to see this done on tarmac.

[@beachesandhose2374]

then it would be down to only weight, heaviest will win

@@An.Individual Not at all, then it would come down to gearing, torque and tires……….you don’t need massive weight if you have good traction!

"Tug" life 💎

[@Thekidsinafrica14]

The fact they even get traction on ground is pretty mind blowing

[@ryanhoffmann9341]

I will be "that" guy, these tug of wars have nothing really to do with power it is all about the weight of the vehicles. 4.2ish tons for the Ranger and Transit together, versus 2.6 tons for the F-150. The Raptor didn't really stand a chance.

[@markoajduk7096]

Its about traction(weight and grip) and those offroad tires do help.

[@VcArena]

That transit looks sick. Wish my work van looked like that, it has a V6 and a 10speed, feels pretty snappy.

[@Zadster]

In any tug of war on grass, it tends to be the best tyres that win (supposing there is some weight on them). When on a surface that isn't so friction limited, it is weight over the driven wheels that wins.

[@aaronbedi132]

I know what they say. “8 tires are better than 4”

Just by looking at the thumbnail I though that's a Reliant Supervan instead of the Transit. Which reminds me you need to feature one of those and try to roll it. Or a Peel P50 (apparently there's a guy making electric P50 restomods) drag race against the Ami.
