[@sap3055]

I have had two ford ranger limited and now I bought a ranger raptor in black and I absolutely loves it

[@richardw5375]

Hi glad your enjoying your raptor what's the build quality like on the seat control etc? Also is towbar an optional extra?

[@johnhepburn100]

Just bought a grey one !..picking up on Wednesday and cant wait..thanks for the video !!

[@AJThePlayerYouTubeChannel]

Lucky you! Sadly this one went back to Ford 😩 thanks for the comment

[@richardw5375]

How are you getting on with your raptor johnhepburn100 ?

[@luizmkv6963]

Couldnt agree more, Black is the color for the Ranger Raptor, it looks so badass

[@AJThePlayerYouTubeChannel]

Totally agree black is totally badass. Thanks for the comment

[@waqasbutt1528]

Im gona buy it very sooon ..ITS MY DREAM car ever best of best just in love with ford raptor and ford mustang

[@Parabloop3r]

Lmao I'm not sure what's with all these negative comments, the raptor kicks ass at what it does! Who cares what it tows or what the payload is, it does jumps!

[@AJThePlayerYouTubeChannel]

Couldn’t agree more it’s a great vehicle. Many thanks for your comment

[@michakool7879]

Thats the magic of Look . This piece of junk looks like tough build but it isnt. Few jumps and this car is gone. Have one with 47 th tooday 8 hours in workshop end nothing done. This is ford joke. Most expensive sticker raptor ever. You can pass water deeper 40 cm online 7 km/h but in commercial raport kick ass . Only in commercial. Rest is no waranty . Thanks.

[@MrFriendlyp]

Brilliant review and very helpful. Your energy was refreshing after watching so many dull presenters. I've just sold my 3.2 Wldtrack and now have a Ranger Raptor. Its a much stronger and toughly built vehicle and handles way better.

[@AJThePlayerYouTubeChannel]

Thanks very much for your comment always appreciated

[@mickthompson8875]

Just got a black one on 25th March from John Grose Ford dealership in Ipswich. Impressed with them given COVID stuff thank you Joe. .Like your video totally agree with everything yo say and it is the dogs b.......! Always had 4x4’s this is 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍makes my old Ranger Thunder look like a wuss!

U really do love this beast.... Have been watching almost all of ur vdos.... Comprehensively informative and u make it fun to watch .... Excellent job 👍👏

[@AJThePlayerYouTubeChannel]

Thanks so much for the positive comment really appreciated

[@CohnmanTheBudbarian]

[@AJThePlayerYouTubeChannel]

Proper comment. Nice!

[@Ziochopchop]

Same same.. Had my Raptor for almost a year now and its seen more bush that Ron Jeremy. All this V8 talk, well do you really need it?

[@CohnmanTheBudbarian]

Lmao, that v8 ranger raptor is laughable, everyone bitches about the price tqg now... can almost see the 120k price tag already.... the 2l has plenty of power when u need it.. if u want to mall crawl and beat ppl at the lights, get a vehicle that does that...love draggin my raps thru mud and rocks

[@AJThePlayerYouTubeChannel]

The Ron Jeremy gag gets me every time so hilarious what a great comment

[@ufenorrr9010]

Great video mate. My dream truck.

[@issimi]

Very good Video and i really share your enthusiasm about this truck. I own it since August and it is still enjoy every minute driving it!

[@AJThePlayerYouTubeChannel]

Thanks for the comment and I’m jealous, wish I owned one

[@issimi]

@@AJThePlayerKZbinChannel Thank you - i live in Austria and here we can get the VAT back. This made it a little bit more affordable...-))

[@bikerman6907]

How is the performance like, on paper the new biturbo engine along with 10 speed gearbox sounds awesome! But the truck is really heavy though.... with nearly 2.5 tons! in weight, which gives it a power to weight ratio of 11.7 kg. My 2018 Isuzu Arctic Truck AT35 with its tuning chip installed has a power/weight ratio of 9.9 kg, 200hp/440nm. Stock figures are 12 kg, and 164hp/360nm. The interior of the Raptor is Nice!!🤙😎. Cheers and enjoy your great truck Mr Austria👍

[@issimi]

@@bikerman6907 Thank you for your nice comment!! i must say that i do not know what IRL performance exactly means but let me tell you, the engine performance is just awesome. I drive the truck in normal mode innercity and on the highway and there is never any shortage of power. on country roads i switch into sports mode and i can tell you, that truck turns into a different animal. Almost too much power for my wife´s liking...and i also have to say, riding with family on board i would not even want more power or more torque. A perfect truck in every aspect. All the best with your Isuzu - sounds like being very nice too! Best regards from Austria!

[@bikerman6907]

@@issimiCheers n thanks for your informative answer!👍

[@taneotaneo7568]

Have one for 10 months with 25,000kms and damn, its like a sports pickup car offroad and on.

[@harry-qy2fz]

No problem with it so far? Especially the gearbox.. i love it n thinking of getting one but i m just worried about its reliability.. thats probably coz have been driving a hilux for 13yrs.. hehehehe

[@michakool7879]

By my after 20 th begon many issiues. Front susspension , diesel pomp , 4L , right mirror , sync , Sterling weel , airco . Have now 53 th and is very noisy. Service dont see problem .. its a weak car . Most expensive sticker RAPTOR ever. This Little plastic under front lamps change colour .

[@pointbreakfish]

Top video. Jeez it’s great to see such enthusiasm. Subscribed!!!

[@CptAwilliamse]

I feel pity a little bit about my Everest because I love my Ranger Raptor a tiny bit more 😉

[@MH5793]

YOU AND YOUR RAPTOR ARE BOTH VERY GOOD.THANKS.

[@AJThePlayerYouTubeChannel]

Top comment totally appreciated

[@ericlaroza2485]

Kent tan you are right! I have a raptor here in the philippines and already had one of the fuel injectors failed at 22000 kms. Not worth buying one!

[@finaldamnation4987]

Thats a stupid thing to say. Just because you had an issue doesn't mean all will, just like your other three injectors are fine. Also thats why you have warranty. Every single car ever made has some issue. Just stupid to say don't buy one because you had a single injector fail.

[@michakool7879]

Have one in Poland nad real dissapointed. Diesel pomp make terrible noises . Havel 42 th km. I thing front susspension getting off make noises, knocks etc.

[@CoolPacket]

@@finaldamnation4987 The thing is, even there is warranty, Ford's after sales service sucks. Parts availability is a problem too. While the competitor Toyota has available parts yet you will not need it. Can last 200,000kms by changing only brakes and belts.

[@markalexander1979]

Great review , wish i could afford this 😁👍🔥

Absolutely. £50'000 for a 2.0ltr pick up, wtaf??

[@kenttan9382]

I want to own one but inguess there has been some issues and problems

[@_DEX_-]

Looking for a long term review. Including the engine. Turbo 4 cyl can be a pain.

[@tonylawton6513]

How can you do a road test and not mention the main selling point for this ute, The Fox Shocks and you didn't mention the paddles on the steering wheel and how they worked or how well they didnt work.

[@wahomeadvocate]

As long as the car has spares available the car is fine.

[@FollowMeOverland]

The power outlet is not 13A - it's around 0.65A

[@Cous1nJack]

Fair point but we call that shape plug/socket 13a.

[@sailing_raptor]

@@Cous1nJack No we don't, we call it a 3 pin plug.

4h on pavement will blow the front end real quick in a hurry its not supposed to be a car allwheel drive system that is why its selectable that goes for 95 percent of offroaders amrock and baby rangerover are different.

[@bryanlow153]

Question: Can the car uses 4H on tarmac for normal drive?

[@markdlate]

No. it will rip the tires and damage the diff.

[@powmendozanunez]

Yes you can

Use 4WD on the ROAD? Do you know that pickups normally dont have a central diff? Do you know what you are talking about?

Lol 4×4 on road is perfectly fine. 😂.

Maybe he didn’t find anything negative. Maybe you will Each to their own

Front camera - no Front sensor - no I Java one - this car is JOKE- piece of junk- not offroad car is not even car its only toy . Schame i bouth this .

[@Elsanta666]

It is not worth it, you can get the base model and do the upgrades yourself

[@AJThePlayerYouTubeChannel]

Very good point and thank you very much for the comment

[@ericlaroza2485]

The problem is there is no base model.

[@finaldamnation4987]

Hardly, a full coil conversion would cost you 12k going of what a cruiser costs

Lol Mike wright .is not actually right! U are more than capable driving in 4*4 on roads/highways....lol own a wildtrak and still doesn't knw how to drive his truck and is bashing the reviewer.😂😭. . great video review love it!

[@granec]

Not at all; on a slippery surface like a wet road you can use 4H

[@fabulousoffroaddesigns5080]

Never run 4HI on pavement. That is 4HI lock. You will ruin the drivetrain.

[@finaldamnation4987]

@@fabulousoffroaddesigns5080 incorrect, its not build to be used constantly but if it wet and slippery you can 100% use it on rd

good luck with the 10 speed transmission

Anything wrong with it? Love to know before i commit..

[@crazycressy7986]

I own a 16 plate 3.2 wildtrak 6 speed auto , it's gone into ford to have the chassis rust treatment , ford have given me a 21 plate bi turbo 10 speed, all I can say it horrible to drive it can't make its mind up what gear it wants to be in you can feel its jumping in and out of the gears ,if ford said I could swap my 16 plate for this 21 plate I would say no ,can't wait for mine to come back
