Final Thoughts on the 2024 Ford Ranger Raptor

The new Ford Ranger Raptor has been a dream truck for many in the US market. The Raptor midsize truck is everything a Ford Raptor should be. Dave couldn't wait to get our long term tester after attending the press launch of the pickup truck. After 6 months of ownership we have some opinions on the race truck and answer the questions on worth the cost.

Badass truck. One thing you can do in the bed is get the bed mat usually 100 bucks aftermarket and they work pretty darn good removable in most of them hold your stuff in place pretty decently lol

I actually like how the Raptor Ranger doesn't come with the signature raptor marker lights. Its so overused by the yota guys to the point where its just straight up cringe seeing the first mods these guys do are raptor lights and a widdle wadder that leads to nowhere. I've also had the displeasure of seeing raptor marker lights on Subarus, Rav4s, and Toyota Sienna minivans

I have a ranger raptor and a 23 bronco wildtrak both are velocity blue and I love them both.

Nice job with your review of the Ranger Raptor. I ordered my Raptor 8 months prior to receiving it on October 12th 2024, With out a dought this is the best mid size 👌 truck I have ever owned.

Right on Ali and Brighton Ford for helping our guy out.

I just took delivery of my RR in late July 2024. It's more manageable than my 2021 F-150 Lariat that was lifted 6-inches on 35-inch tires and 22x12-inch wheels. What I don't like is the lack of more usable storage space, no moonroof option, no amber DRL's (Raptor staple) and no cooled seats! Ford definitely was pinching pennies bringing this truck to the U.S. market, but I get it. You just can't beat the value found in the RR. Bought mine in Black to match my 2020 Explorer ST. Since I bought it I've put a leveling kit on the front end, and installed some 33.2x12.5 Nitto Recon Grapplers on 20x9 inch wheels. I do like the improved MPG that I get with the RR over my previous F-150 which is 3 MPG more at the moment..

Hey Dave i love my R Raptor. Love the steps lol. The new tune from Lethal Preformance was great. My dealer installed in an hour. Got 7500 miles. Get great gas milage if i dont race in sport mode. Understand your need to sell. Keep up the good content.

I have almost 10k on my Ranger Raptor. With over 600 miles on fords performance tune. I love it but.... It needs a 25gal tank, rear vents, and ventilated seats, the J-Braces factory with no charge

Can't wait for mine to be built the week of Sept 30th! I've heard that the headlights perform possibly the best of any vehicle on the road, which makes sense when you're bombing through the desert or the woods at night. I got mine for MSRP btw, but many dealerships around me charge $5k and more over, and they fly right off the lot.

Just bought an RR. I needed a 4 door and more utility, so I replaced my Bronco Black Diamond 2d. The Bronco was more fun to drive IMO 2.3/7M, but the Raptor is more refined, comfortable and capable for my needs. Awesome job Ford Australia

Super sharp RAPTOR 😎🔥🇺🇸👍💪(FORD TOUGH).

I ordered a 24 Ranger XLT - 2.3L, 2WD, XLT high pkg, Tech pkg, Advance Tow pkg, and locking rear diff, and I love it. I really enjoy driving it, especially the fuel economy. I find it to be maneuverable, nimble, sporty, and very comfortable. Love the infotainment system, and even the stock stereo sounds great. Only complaint I have is Ford needs to refine the Lane-Keeping assist because it constantly reminds you to keep both hands on the steering wheel.

The truck is an absolute pleasure to drive daily as well as when you want to push it. There are finishing issues on the truck that bother me like the rearview mirror housing. I also have some door trim that's starting to droop from the window. Also, my drivers side door pocket panel vibrates with most bass from the stereo. Again, driving the car is great and you can tell where the cost comes from in the performance, however, I wish Ford paid more attention to the QA with regards to fit and finish on the interior. In all, no regrets.

[TKO]

Just about 1000miles on my RR now and Im loving the truck. The ford performance tune just got delivered to my dealer too. Cant wait!

[BlueFL]

A huge miss is ventilated seats. Not sure why they left them out.

[jasoncameron]

Great video! I hate to see the Raptor go but I completely understand your decision.

[luistorres]

Ford is coming out with a factory tune that will give the Ranger Rapter an extra 40 HP and 510 pound feet of torque... Which would make this mid-size pickup the top dog in its category.

[hippocrocadonkey]

I'm getting my Ranger Raptor soon...decided to go with the Conquer Gray...as for the rear centre vents the version we get here has the vents ...

[hockeymann]

I love that it has plenty of capability if needed but it's size makes for a nice daily driver.
