I noticed that the gear shifter doesn’t have the Sport (S) gear on the Lariat trim. Does the XLT come with it? I like that feature on my current 2019 model. It gives a nice boost to the throttle response, alters the shifting, and disables the auto stop.

The front end looks substantially better than the previous Ranger and the fact you can fit 4'x8' sheets between the wheel wells is a game changer.

[@shitloveaduck]

I agree on the ability to haul 4x8 sheets of plywood etc!! The looks?? I prefer the previous Ranger. The new one looks boring, especially when compared to the GM twins and the new Tacoma. That being said, I’m a Ford fan and will wait fully until I see one in person later next week, when I’m back in town. They apparently have one coming in for test driving. The pricing puts Ford as the most expensive midsized truck out there, just slight over Toyota pricing,,,. That’s a problem. Ford’s pricing of Kate is excessive compared to the competitors. Ram is worse, but not by much. Fortunately, here, there are rebates up to $14,500 CAD on the existing 2023s and I have seen as much as $4,000 on the new 2024. Dealerships are hungry for sales & competition is heating up to the point that they can no longer demand the stratospheric prices the place as MSRP! Whew! The discounts by the most aggressive dealers put the trucks back into perspective. Demand is still very high on the midsize trucks unfortunately. I’ll wait a couple years to see where things settle.

[@paulhunter9613]

Being able to haul a full sheet of plywood got my attention, but still won’t consider buying one till they lengthen the bed to at least 6’, prefer it at 6.5’. The only thing Andre didn’t show with the lariat is the payload on that truck, the XL had a great payload for its size

With the Ram 1500 Ramcharger around the corner, the quicker Ford can bring the Ranger PHEV to market in the US the better the chance they have to run away with the mid-sized truck market.

What is the new hang up on “steelies”?? I lived through them when it was extremely rare you could get alloys. The steel wheels rust, chip, look like crap, even powder coated ones. They are potentially beneficial off-road, but when you are going extreme, otherwise the alloys are stronger, mor brittle, but overall stronger. Steel wheels bend under heavy loads off-road (I know, I replaced my fair share & my tire shop watched the evolution of the different wheels used over the last 42 years), but will generally get you home. If an alloy wheel fails you need to replace it, I get that, but the failure rate of alloy wheels is very low. There have been a lot that have failed, more on cars, due to drifting and road stupidity, but steel wheel soul survive that same abuse either. I have heard that you can hammer a steel wheel back into shape to re-inflate it. We have tried (successfully) in the shop, but that’s nowhere as easy as a person thinks. The wheel was clean & we had special tools to get the tire to seal on the beads. Anything is possible & people have re-aired tires off-road, more often than not, though, an attempt to re-air the tires off-road fails. Often, it’s likely the alloy wheel may have survived the damage the steel wheel folded under! The basic land steel wheels TFL has decided they like are terrible cheap wheels that work well for winter tires. Maybe at least look at styled steel wheels like the white spoke alloys on the Discovery that simulate steel. They created an alloy to “simulate “ steel!! Think about that! 😂😂.

[@adaycj]

TLDR. However I agree. Many of these vehicles already have 900 wheel choices. Just let the aftermarket supply the steelies for the few that want them for their snow tires or their off-road tires.

The same trucks on the official Ford Canadian website are 10 000$ more for Canadians

[@ab348]

That’s because our currency is worthless thanks to our federal government printing money to cover its overspending.

[@scottneal2738]

That STX is very similar to the 2019 that I had and it was $40k. The inner screen being larger is awesome though.

[@tmpopson1]

Love this channel. I should see my Lariat (Cactus Gray 4x4) within the next week or so. But since you asked - YES I would love to see a plug in hybrid.

[@billygames7107]

xlt with the bullet proof 2.7 please!

[@kelvinelrick807]

17:07, 17:27 Dang, you can lock the rear diff in 2H.

[@jbrou123]

You can even get the locker on a 4X2!

[@nathanhansford76]

What about the single cab, long bed ranger with $20,000 price tag. Wouldn’t that be the most affordable?

[@GregGlenn-p7k]

Love the extra leg and head room and love the lariat

[@jaredpalmer5138]

I like the idea of a plug in hybrid for this truck. I have yet to be impressed with some of the powertrains available with smaller fords. WE NEED MORE OPTIONS FORD.

[@deranged731]

Hmm, I would go with the STX then add Katskin leather and install a nice stereo. Cant wait to see these in person!

[@jtec99]

Katskin huh?

[@deranged731]

@@jtec99 they make really nice replacement leather seat covers.

[@timstrobel9220]

Nice that you show the base model

[@TheTopGun920]

I really like this video format. The only other way really is to build and price trucks on the websites.

[@dansievers5915]

I would definitely go with the STX. Always looking for the best bang for my buck. But, ford should always put a break controller into their trucks, cause you need it anyway.

[@chriscon8463]

I just priced out a ‘24 Ranger 4x4 STX with locking diff; it was $38,330 here in NWPA. Not bad, but a bit more than $35K.

[@kennak476]

Guys, I’ve been waiting for the release of the new Ford Ranger -finally! Now after you purchase one you can do a sde-by-side comp with the Taco!

[@pernell4351]

Ford needs to bring back the manual transmission in the Ford Ranger and often all trims they got it in the Ford bronco so they need to put it in there

[@spyder000069]

Looks like there is no spot to hang a dash cam behind the rearview mirror. Totally covered by some trim piece. So cam is going to have to mount low blocking view.

[@clangdon1436]

Holding on to 21 Tremor until Ford releases new 2.7 Tremor . Hopefully a 25 model .

[@2213rtx]

I own 2015 f150 XL. ext. cab FX4 with a 2.7 eco best great motor fast powerful great mpg. towed my 20' cc. boat easy. sold the boat so I am going to downgrade to a Ranger but I am waiting for the 2.7 I just want a basic FX4 XLT. it will probably between 43 and 45k cost I wish they came with a ext. cab I can only imagine how fast and powerful with great mpg it will be.

[@billygames7107]

i sure hope its the same 2.7 that is in the f150..that motor is amazing.

[@theglitch99]

Would be nice if you could get all of the mechanical advantages and delete the expensive unnecessary electronics. .....

[@marklihsu]

XL with awd and lockers is $38k

[@theglitch99]

@@marklihsu so you can?

[@BROON71]

I like both of these new Rangers. But, not their insane price tags...

[@hectorvalentin8613]

Ford as an average Joe I would like analogue an cluster a smaller infotainment that resembles a radio no a tablet and by the love of God put a manual transmission on the base model.

[@michaelsheedy]

The STX is very well equipped for a lower trim level. That would be my pick.

[@daphoneguy934]

Sirius XM,bed outlets, rear defroster, heated outside mirrors and heated seats are not available on the XL.

[@Inferno45]

I wish we still got snow in NY. It currently 60 degrees in march.

[@idahocartel]

I have a 21’ XLT FX4 that I love! Hope ford follows up with the Hybrid in the new model

[@kdcarver]

If there was a pi-hybrid FX4 available it would be in my garage right now.
