Interesting. Up until the moment you mentioned they were paying for the video, was not sure why you would pay good money for 1 since you won't be keeping that vehicle for years and years. While my TRD does not need such a device, as well as I feel as you do w/out trying 1, that it would not be worth my $, I do like that pedal lock out idea. IF I parked on the streets a lot and or public places over night, that would be worth considering for a vehicle security measure. 🙂

[@EngineeringExplained]

Thanks for letting me tear it up on the test hill!!

[@iduimovic]

The lock function of the EVCX will work perfectly for those vehicles that are hot to be stolen like Kia, where you add that device and lock it with the app and basically immobilize the vehicle. Just an idea of possible usage of the device.

[@mtbrdude]

LOL You move into your new house and you realize you've got a weird neighbour who mows his lawn with a hedge trimmer.....

[@drivingsports]

Hey, if it works…

[@bogdandanailescu]

Pete from Ultimate 9 shows the advantages of a throttle controller on 4WD 24/7 channel in his GR Patrol when he's invited. A good/experienced driver will make the most out of the throttle controller, gizmos alone don't replace skill 😊

[@terminusarms113]

I remember watching the last one of these and loving it too. Love the videos Ryan, thanks for always making entertaining and informative content. Also enjoy the non-review videos, helps diversify your reach

[@Grodent87]

I have the same throttle controller in my ‘22 Bronco and love it!

[@timanderson6111]

Nothing like good upgrades! That actually work... keep 'em coming! Fun video...

[@jacklo325]

Very cool collaboration, would be nice to see more guests...

[@Kiss__Kiss]

Nice!! Can't wait for the new video with the road updates, Ryan. By the way, Happy Father's day!!! Cool to also see Engineering Explained make a quick Cameo..

[@JRs-guitars]

Great video. Those Falken RTs are great tires. If you end up trying out other throttle controllers...I highly recommend the JMS Pedalmax Terrain.

[@furiousfragment7082]

It's been 20 seconds into the video it's still great

[@zackdemundo]

Nice cross-over. No pun intended. Like seeing the Skipper on Wild Wild West.

[@BernonCars]

“Yard” maintenance is always fun to me so this was a good video to start my day! 😂

Hello everyone and welcome... to Driving Sports TV

Ryan, Is that the real Jason or a cheaper AI version? 😂

Your Ford ranger tremor does have selectable drive modes: normal, sport, eco, tow haul, slippery, deep snow and sand, and mud and ruts.

[@drivingsports]

The 2022 USDM Tremor has Trail Modes, none of which have any significant affect on throttle.

[@wildbill23c]

@@drivingsports Even in slippery it doesn't cut your throttle? That's weird, thought that was the whole point of having that mode alone was to give the throttle less input for easier starts and less tire spin in snow/ice. Makes all those modes pointless....making for my point I've always made, none of my 4WD systems give a damn what I'm driving on or through, I just pull the lever and it goes, it don't care if I'm in snow, mud, sand, etc. LOL.

[@calvinvesco9883]

Love that shirt! Best arcade game ever!

[@unknownclue]

I would love to see you use a Rokon 2 wheel drive dirt bike on these trails

[@ads2600]

Looks like some new tires on the Tremor? What spec/size? I'm considering going 255/80r17 on mine...

[@TundeEszlari]

Sensational video.

[@teleskipowder1]

Noticed you got rid of the factory "Off Road Hoop Steps" What rock sliders did you replace them with? They look good and are low profile.

[@drivingsports]

I actually just unbolted the steps and kept the rails. They're not actual Rock Rails, but they look decent enough and they do act as alarms if I get too close to the frame.

[@RollinKoal01]

What are the tires on the ranger?

[@furiangameclips]

What about the tires?

[@0HOON0]

Who here can identify tires from just the tread pattern? Are those the new BFG KO3s perhaps?

[@ads2600]

Look like Wildpeak RT 01s.

[@RollinKoal01]

Nvm see you next week 😂

[@PhotographybySatesh]

How come you weren’t at the 2024 Ranger event? I always look forward to your videos and I was sad I didn’t see one from you😢

[@drivingsports]

We’re not on the Ford invite list for advanced looks - for some reason. But we do get them in fleet when they finally ship. Press event invites are weird and as you can tell, make no sense.

[@SasukeUchiha-zu6dw]

​@@drivingsportsare you interested in buying the new one

[@drivingsports]

@@SasukeUchiha-zu6dw we announce on Instagram a couple weeks ago that we have one on order already.

[@SasukeUchiha-zu6dw]

@@drivingsports sweet I'm thinking of ordering one as well

[@adamtacheira5323]

Hey, you didn’t have a chance to say you’re 6 foot 1, legs and torso proportionate.

[@ZombieSalesman]

What happened to the other guy that was on the videos occasionally?

[@Daniel_Scott89]

I thought the Bronco Everglades got discontinued?

[@lordflashheart3706]

Paused. Not discontinued.

[@Daniel_Scott89]

[@indaydongtv5139]

Ford bronco?That suck bronco!my friend bought 2023 bronco after 3 weeks got stock on the road and the problem transmission and the funny thing the ford didn't give lawner car to use while the car is on service and the car it's take 1 month to fix lol

[@CumBrianFries]

The 2024 GX is gonna destroy theses, it's just as capable but twice the reliability, not to mention looks better.

[@ALMX5DP]

Looks are subjective and reliability is TBD even if Toyota/Lexus do have a reputation in that regard.

[@SasukeUchiha-zu6dw]

Probably twice the price as well and not a truck with a bed

[@electrikoptik]

Who cares about these two. The new Taco will be on sale soon and the legendary Land Cruiser is officially returning to the US!
