Join me as we spend a week living with the newest member of the Ford Raptor family, the 2024 Ford Ranger Raptor! It brings essentially the same powertrain as the Bronco Raptor, but costs substantially less while being plenty capable and surprisingly fun in the real world. Which off-road midsized truck would you rather own? Which Raptor would you want to own?

The performance upgrade from ford boost the HP to 455 and 535 pound feet of torque and it only cost 835 dollars. You have to buy the flash tuner and your dealer will flash the truck

If you’re paying 60K for a truck and worried about the extra 4$ per fill up for premium fuel then you can’t afford this vehicle. 🤷🏻‍♂️

The price is going to go up on these ranger raptors.

I’m glad I bought mine already, in Azure grey 😊

And now Ford is releasing a factory tune.

455 hp and 536 lb torque. $825

Comes out 9-13-24

Love the colour ❤ We have found an upgraded fog light for the Ranger Raptor, specifically designed for US models. It includes special brackets and features two mounts that are 400% brighter than the stock lights, available in both yellow and white for extreme weather. incorporating both high and low beams.

3:57 "Does it use premium"? "yeah yeah it's eco boost".... NO!! 87+ is not premium you can use it but does NOT require it. Why doe every youtuber get this LOVE THE GUY WITH THE

Toyota trd pro is close to 70, 000, has no room in the back for passengers . Toyota really missed the mark with the new Tacoma. They are sitting on dealers lots

Best mid-sized truck ever created. I will be purchasing after I purchase my new house. fun fact: Ford is releasing a factory performance tune to increase HP and TQ to 455HP and 536TQ. That is a awesome. I'm 6'3 so the first mod will be to remove those clearance destroying side steps and install some frame hugging rock slides.

[sourdplays]

yes larry, you do need the extra 10 hp.

Great review thanks. A couple months ago I put a ranger raptor on order at my local dealership (no deposit, no dealer doc fees, no obligations, and NO MARK UP!!!). I am still on the fence until i actually get some hands on time with the truck. I would potentially be trading in my 2023 F150 Raptor as like you said the Ranger version would seem to fit my lifestyle better (especially in payment where it would be $200+ less per month). I am curious if anyone can tell me if they have made a similar transition and how it has gone. I appreciate you telling us your height...I am also 6'3" so it is nice to see that you appeared to have plenty of room. A couple of knocks that i don't understand...why no ventilated seats? The F150 version has them. But i did check and you can't get ventilated seats in the bronco raptor either. wondering if there is an engineering reason. Also i did not notice in the video...is there ambient lighting? If not that is a dig too. Not a big deal just shocked its not there.

Useable backseat is why ranger beats all the competitors. Tacoma is useless.

[nascarniko]

As a long time toyota guy and got the 2024 Tacoma. Im about ready to send the ranger raptor

[alexgaray]

Ranger raptor definitely needs the amber DRLs I don’t know why ford gave them white ones instead :/

[LuisRamirez-lncj]

That's a perfect sized truck for most people who won't be using them for work. Very cool and not that expensive. Of course, how reliable is it? That's the only question I would ask.

[nickw]

It says 87 but the drivers manual highly recommends using premium

[RxngerRxptor]

I have one and i absolutely love it i have it for 7 months

[tjgim]

I’m more upset with the lack of ventilated seats and no old man bed step. Those are awesome comfort features. Make sure you attend the Raptor Assault Program.

600 miles on mine. velocity blue. didn't choose the color because I'm not picky. also gladly paid the markup. traded in a 2010 tundra and 2016 focus rs. drive is excellent!!! don't need the "Moab" type off-road, but will do a lot of trans sierra winter driving around tahoe.

[BobYeeterson]

For those that does not know, the ford ranger raptor can be modified to support higher loading weight.

[sirfriendzone]

The price seems a little ridiculous until you check its direct competition. Honestly, I'd buy one if I had the money...

[Rchack]

I was thinking everybody's worried about the Turbo. In the Toyota, what about the 2 turbos in the raptor?
