Been watching this review since the release, now I'm driving one 💗

[@kooob81]

this chamnel is underrated

[@RealRoyRobles]

Thanks! Better under than over, I guess hehe.

[@virgiliopunla4878]

On point review. Just Subscribed!

[@mommyandicadventures2325]

True, the xlt gets the best of the basics. We got our xlt just last month and we’re happy with it. Smooth driving.

[@ZigWheelsPhilippines]

Congratulations! We're sure all the new owners like you are driving happy right now

[@maynardpaye]

how much dp sa xlt if 5 years sir?

[@brentambrosio6979]

Hows the reliability now of Ford? Im planning to buy this Month

[@abuh.dahdah]

wait muna ako ng 2yrs to see if goods ang 2.0 engine, as of now 2.2 engine ang pinaka ok sa Ford... 5yrs na ang ranger M/T namin at ok padin sya no problem and 80K na tinakbo.

Auto watch specially when I see zigwheels popup to my youtube notification.

[@ZigWheelsPhilippines]

Auto-heart for comments like these from our viewers, thanks for the support!

[@brakinglate8828]

Do the back seats get hot? I asked a Ford dealer about rear ac vents on the xlt variant and they said there is "abang" for ac vents like the ones found in the wildtrak.

[@g.a.mendoza1064]

Some used words are very superfluous and can’t even think of it’s relevance, but ok. Love the review of this car tho. Brief and concise.

[@georgerocamora6955]

I like this boss.. Mas angas dating pa ito if upgrade to 20" Tires 👍💪

[@steveandrew408]

I took one for a test drive and was really amazing how smooth and quit it was hit the gas it goes really no hesitation 6 speed auto very nice I'm hoping the bank does a loan well worth the price your looking at $25,000 for a truck,I don't think the 4x4 worth it but I don't plan to much off road

[@joshVcastro]

Buying it next month!

[@ZigWheelsPhilippines]

The Ranger XLT is a solid choice!

[@snakeph]

Hoping for the V6

[@ChubbyWanderer]

magkano ba fuel consumptio niya po? ilang km/L?

[@eraserheads78]

Ford Everest Trend next please sir. 😃

[@mosescanlas3688]

Thanks, sir roy.. keep making this kind of reviews..

[@maker9995]

Galing talaga neto mag review kudos sir :D

[@TheRdwyer]

Its the same width as all the other Rangers except the XL model.

[@andriexavielmagtibay4723]

I think you should consider some review on the new hilux G 4x2 2023 at vs ford next gen ranger xlt at, price are almost the same but I think ranger has more pros than the preicier hilux ( which we bought a week ago )

[@kenzostar189]

There is a new ford ranger xlt plus 4x4 10speed.pls review tis nxt time.salamat po.

[@laurencedeperalta1974]

Good pm sir you've reviewed the nissan ve 4x2 at and this xlt may i ask what can you recommend? Thank you.

[@fullbass1426]

Whats crazy is that the smaller maverick actually punches more power with that 250hp ecoboost engine. That alone will cannibalize the turbodiesel in this ranger. 😅

[@RealRoyRobles]

I think the Ranger still fills a nice niche (Nish? Nietzsche?) In the market for those looking for a tall, rugged, diesel truck. With rising diesel prices, I think oil-burners will return to those who absolutely need the torque rather than just the pogi factor. :-) hopefully we start seeing the market demand for gasoline trucks and SUVs soon!

[@fullbass1426]

@@RealRoyRobles and with emissions getting stricter and diesel prices consistently higher, I think turbo petrol and hybrid trucks are near the horizon.

[@kenzostar189]

There is a new ford ranger xlt plus 4x4 10speed.give a review soon.salamat po

[@JoseGutierrez-db9mr]

They need to bring back the single cab long bed

[@ZigWheelsPhilippines]

Sounds like a fun project build vehicle!

[@bernieguabes2274]

[@johnwick860]

pls also ask the Kia management if they have plans of bringing the Telluride in the PH market

[@RealRoyRobles]

I asked them about the Telluride and the keep Tellum'me they don't have plans "right now" Which means the Telluride must be coming!!! (?) Seriously they're pretty mum about future models but you can bet we'll be lining up to tell you how it is!

[@junvale6389]

This variant dont have a lock/unlock key at tailgate. How to fix it?

[@craftman5632]

You can buy a locking tailgate handle on Amazon easy to replace.

[@hilmannajib]

Man why indonesia still got old version ?

[@craniumpunch8592]

Galing nyo po mag deliver in english sir salute!

[@mschiffel1]

I'm sure the diesel won't be offered in the US. Bummer.

[@Jay-vr1hy]

Hi Sir Roy How about 4x2 sport? sulit ba for 100k difference or sulit na yang XLT

[@RealRoyRobles]

I haven't gotten the chance to test the Sport variant yet, but apart from bigger wheels, a fancier front end, leather seats and other niceties, the powertrain remains the same, if the difference is 100k and the payment plan isn't that much different, I think swinging for the Sport is alright. Personally, I'll be happy with the XLT :-) until I get my hands on the Sport, maybe I'll change my mind :-)

[@ArkiDeos]

For the price difference, sa Sport Variant ka na. Mas Astig ang dating dahil naka black lahat ang mga chrome plated parts.

[@JosephMarjiamBReyes]

Pag ganyan dun nalang ako sa 4x4 sport. Kung 4x2 okay na ako sa XLT since minimal lang difference sa XLT at sport.

[@Jay-vr1hy]

Thank you sir Roy and others. nauwi ako sa 4x2 wildtrak😅

[@johnwick860]

instead of the Maverick, the Bronco will compete against the FJ Cruiser

[@alesterpadua7884]

Ford Maverick and Hyundai Santa Cruz would be perfect for the Asian market because of it's smaller sizes. But sadly they are both for the American market and only being manufactured in America

[@RealRoyRobles]

I think it's just a matter of time before we see those smaller "crossover" trucks!

[@ednis32]

Reklamo nga ng american reviewers mabagal daw. Mas bagay sa atin hybrid maverick sa ka bagalan ng traffic flow ng Pinas

[@RealRoyRobles]

@@ednis32I totally agree. If there's one thing I've learned from driving all the cars I've reviewed on the channel, it's that speed is overrated. Solid build quality, interior space, handling and NVH are what's more important and will make you love the car you purchased!

[@alesterpadua7884]

[@alesterpadua7884]

[@tankshot3256]

Does it have auto climate control AC?

[@RealRoyRobles]

The Ford Ranger XLT 4x2 with the 6AT has single-zone manual AC :-)

[@tankshot3256]

@@RealRoyRobles oh i see. Thats kinda let down. Kahit single zone auto climate AC man lang.

[@shopgospel]

Kamusta po ung aircon sa likod? Balak po kasi namin kumuha ng XLT or Territory kaso ung concern namin is ung aircon sa likod gawa ni baby. Out of budget na po namin si wild track na may rear aircon vents. Thank you in advance

[@ZigWheelsPhilippines]

With the smaller cabin area to cool (vs an Everest with rear area for example), the AC is decent in the 2nd row though you may have to turn the fan speed up just to be sure!

[@shopgospel]

@@ZigWheelsPhilippines Thank you very much, you're a life saver!

[@adonisceynas2587]

Wala lang kasing airvents sa likod

[@Usefullinformationphilippines]

The Ford maverick has an engine and that’s a complete piece of junk. The Ford ranger in the Philippines comes with a diesel engine that is not a piece of junk and it’s reasonably priced in the XLT trim

STOP showing these videos of the trucks we can't buy in the US. Memo to Ford: bring them over here!

[@ZigWheelsPhilippines]

At least you got the Maverick! 🤣 I've been asking Ford bosses here to bring in that little work machine since it was launched! I think the USDM Ranger is due for a refresh into this bad boy next year.

[@ejdaddy3161]

ano macho pb ang gusto mo. npkmacho n nga eh.

[@asrockrpg]

This all-new Ranger is a Mix of Maverick and F-150 in terms of design and appearance.

Maverick all the things!
