This might be all the bakkie one needs, delivering the power as and when needed, not overly assisted through advanced driver assistance systems and has the hardcore grunt one needs in a bakkie. The XLT 4x4 Bi-Turbo starts at +/-R748 000 and this particular one is specced to +R804 000. This is probably the best value for money in the line-up.

The XLT as correctly said is a balance between style and substance. It’s essentially all you need in a bakkie and with the option packs, you can make it look stylish. I test drove one recently and really enjoyed it, it’s just a pity they’ve become pricey.

@sebuwam 10 ай бұрын

What a balance this is, especially with this 2.0L Bi-Turbo, I expect to see more of these on the road. Eish the economy is currently against people with prices ey! Hope you doing great there on the other side 🙂

well, I love how you emphasize on the importance of looking at the nice to haves vs must haves...If you spec the XLT right there's no need to go for the higher up models who will only add the nice to haves. Well I enjoyed the camera work and nice gravel POV as well...Thanks a lot sir and keep up the good work. 🙏🙏🙏

Bakkies have surely shifted from what they used to do to what people are using them for these days. This honestly is the right mix for work and home. I always appreciate your presence Demtumza, thanks a lot for the positive and encouraging feedback🙂🫶🏾

@sebuwam I remember we always preferred small cars and SUVs because of ride comfort but now bakkies have become our daily giants on the roads because of versatility they offer which is being a family and items carrier and an off-road vehicle when you need to test out the 4x4 settings🔥💯

Bosso Thank you for simplifying the different types of the new Rangers. XLT is the one 🎉. Where's this gravel road you tested this bakkie?

Thank you so much LSG. I do think it offers great value as well. The road is between Cullinan and Brokhorstspruit🙏🏽

Is there a noticeable MAJOR difference between the BiT & SiT in terms off performance? Great review btw

@sebuwam 28 күн бұрын

Yes, yes and yes. SiT is just too heavy, even when you overtake you need to think about what might come head on but with BiT you hardly worry especially when already on the move. The 10-speed is perfect to the BiT but keeps changing down to fetch some power on lower gears on SiT

Not really a fan of Ford or bakkies but this XLT model (especially with those wheels) is a fantastic looking product. The fact that VW is involved in the making of the engine does give me a bit of confidence. I'd buy for sure if I could afford it. 👍🏿

@sebuwam 10 ай бұрын

This XLT is honestly all one needs in a bakkie just that we buy them for lifestyle purposes these days hence Raptor is selling so much as it can't do as much as this can as a workhorse. Last I checked Ford developed all the engines on the ones we have here in SA?🤔

On auto trader I saw some wildtraks for under 800k, I would go for one of those even though it is not a 4X4. Another great video by the way.

@sebuwam 10 ай бұрын

Eish but once you get on gravel you realise the importance of 4x4 ey, 4x2 leaves the tail asking for grip mostly, it's okay if you don't like taking chances but 4x4 brings confidence. Looking at the fact that many people don't drive on gravel I would agree with you there.👌🏾

@manyuhahulisani2091 10 ай бұрын

@sebuwam The 4x2 scares me i won't lie ...... at home we still have the 3.2 XLT, i tell you that car can effortlessly kick its tail out gravel or wet road if you're to heavy on the throttle. The reason i saw 4x2s are mostly bought its because they cost a bit less than the 4x4 variant

@sebuwam 10 ай бұрын

@@manyuhahulisani2091 Yep, mostly people just know that they won't really need the extra grip but for slippery roads, you can feel that the thing has a happy tail. Literally fights for grip, in the wet? Yoh, even I don't take chances there

@manyuhahulisani2091 10 ай бұрын

Ford all the way🔥🔥🔥..... I feel like this one is sort of like a scaled down wildtrak, it still looks rugged than the normal XLT💯🔥. If you were to see how menacing they look in your rear view mirror they make it impossible to look away from them, these 4x4s look very beautiful, I'm sure that it handles far much better than the previous gen because the shocks are moved outside the chassis rail rather than built inside👌

@sebuwam 10 ай бұрын

These things are intimidating from the rear view mirror ey😅😅😅. I honestly felt like this is just the exact same as the previous gen Wildtrak in many ways including handling. Maybe in far greater challenges it can show material improvements but so far they felt quite similar. Otherwise, this is good looking and still drives so well👌🏾💯🙂

@sebuwam I still can't believe they don't make the 3.2L engine anymore, that engine still has power to match up the other competitors as much as it does make the car feel nose-heavy but that was a beefy engine🫢🔥
