Yup. I bought a Crown Vic and then Googled a bunch of Crown Vic stuff. Then KZbin recommended the Crown Vic Up To Speed.... That's actually what turned me on to this channel. Then they did the S10, which I have. Now I gotta wait for the Dakota and Power Wagon... but my Power Wagon is just the 70's pickup.

I remember the 97 ranger, its was rather snappy to drive with a manual transmission and it spun the tires rather easy making it a pretty fun and good utility machine that could get to a healthy 115 mph if you ever where in a real hurry. (My former boss wasn't too thrilled with the short longevity of the rear tires... Yet he kept lending it to me tho.)

[@Grandassets]

I just want this truck to go back to being a mini truck :(

[@JoeIsCrazyWillman]

Same. also the fact that the new one has a 10-speed Auto and all that extra horsepower and torque compared to my 2011 4.0L 5spd auto, mine still keeps up or sometimes beats em 0-80.... And then also despite all the technology they still can't get a 4 banger truck to get 30+mpg 🤦🏼‍♂️

[@TheFootbaldd]

JoeIsCrazyWillman one day my 280k original 96 2.3 danger ranger will stop making compression, but not today. I’ve been riding that lame joke for so long it has become cool. Best 0 dollars ever spent. In fact after getting rear ended and later getting hit by an enraged mustang that stopped inches from my front door, that ranger has cost me -1200 dollars. Neither accident left a mark that a 4lb hammer couldn’t remove.

If you're doing the Ranger you need to do the Toyota Hilux!! Yes its different to a Tacoma

[@frankquinata8406]

Please do an up to speed on the Toyota Hilux

[@czluver4338]

Used to drive a Hilux around Baghdad (BIAP to be specific). It was a truck left behind by Saddam's cronys. Cracked windshield, dents, etc., but it kept going. Being that it wasn't one of our trucks brought in, had to use a gas card from another vehicle just to fill her up. I actually brought wipers for it on one of my trips. Maintenance? What maintenance.?. Again, being off the books meant no money to maintain. Thing is, it kept running. Year after year, through hot and cold, sandstorms, and zero maintenance, it kept running. Brand new GMC trucks died roughly three months in that environment, but that Toyota wouldn't die. Long live the Hilux!

[@hulksmash4563]

I think they just feature vehicles that are sold in US, mainly ford ranger was just released in 2019 and i think hilux will never be in US soil

[@riamriam6758]

Jayson La Faber it's been done. It's under 4Runner. Same as hilux surf.

[@riamriam6758]

rex llanes hilux will never... Can't compete with 2.7 ltr and same tray size. But it's a #1 in places like Australia, New Zealan, South Africa etc followed by Toyotas Landcruiser 79 which will also never make Us market. Canada has Hilux tho. And to add US market doesn't seem to like Diesel engine so much nowadays so that plays a part too.

I really think you guys should do a video on an unsung hero, the Nissan Xterra! Probably a snip on the frontier during the video just to cover the pickup version. The reliability, outside of some of Nissan's typical electrical Gremlins, customizability, and performance is well worth the discussion. Also some missed opportunity to produce a supercharged manual vq40 and ending the line instead of running a major redesign.

Thanks for the video. I built the Ranger from 92 to 2004 also the Mazda B series in Edison NJ along with Twin cities and Louisville production. But all Mazda’s were built at Edison. They were great little trucks built by people who did take extra pride in what we were building.

I always found the Ranger strange. I'm British and pickups don't usually sell well in the UK and Europe. Instead, you got a Transit or a panel van. But the Ranger started to pick up sales in recent years and are becoming common for construction companies and workers. So it was a bit of a shock when I suddenly started to see more Rangers on British roads but I guess thats just a show of the times now.
