Unlike the offroad models of other manufacturers, the Raptor actually has a reasonable payload. So aside from goofing around on offroad trails, this can actually be used as truck is supposed to be used: 4 adults can actually go to work with some 500 lbs of cargo in the bed. Clear winner in the segment.

I was determined to buy a 2024 Tacoma TRD Pro when they were initially teasing the 4th gens but after seeing the pricing I’ve decided to go the Ranger Raptor route. I get so much more truck with the Raptor and for $10k less.

I test drove one last week and it made my Ranger Tremor feel ancient 😂
-
Also I don't mind the v6 on the mid sized truck. Perfect combo
-
This is as honest a review and opinion as you’re gonna’ find. Ford got it right….
-
Nothing wrong with declaring a favorite. All these midsize truck reviews are making me want to get one. I had so much fun playing with my ZR2 back in the day. If these weren't so bloody expensive, I probably would get one.
-
Agree with you 100%. Only thing that sucks is dealer markups are pushing this closer to 70K and at that point, a TRX with 20-30K miles becomes pretty tempting.
-
This is why I love watching your videos. Great content and you always just give your honest opinion. Like about the turbo engines. Not afraid to call bs whether that’s viewers or manufacturers. Great job!
-
I think it's a sharp looking truck.

I'm not a big fan of Ford, but I have to admit that the Ranger Raptor stands out as the best mid-size truck when it comes to coolness, features, capabilities, speed, and comfort. I do wish it had rear A/C vents and I hope it proves to be reliable. While the pricing is a bit high, it is still more reasonable than Toyota's TRD Pro and the ZR2 Bison.

When I was a Ford tech 100% of turbo failures were from lack of maintenance. I never had a turbo just fail. I also have a 2015 2.7l ecobeast f150, has 156,000 miles on it. Turbos are still just fine.

It was designed and engineered in Australia, hence the relatively high payload and the location of the plugs at the rear end. It was tested for a long time driving on corrugated roads ( what you guys call washboard).

Toyota better get their💩 together fast or they’re going to lose a lot of market share. The new 4runner better be dialed in 200% before they start shipping them out. Crazy to think my next midsize truck would likely be this. Thanks for the review. Good looking little truck.
-
Man im so excited, I secured this exact spec truck minus graphics package to be built this month. It's the color I wanted and I was lucky to grab the allocation. Can't wait to get in the driver seat!
-
Wow Tim actually picked a winner and it wasn’t a taco!
-
Mine is being built in august, i cant wait.
-
Code orange accents on the interior are spot on..Ford needs to do this updated interior on the GEN 4 Raptor...Lets go FORD!
-
Good vid Tim. I think Ford really nailed the Ranger Raptor. For context, I am a Toyota guy with a 2018 TRD off-road Tacoma I am still really happy with. I like the new Tacoma too, but I would be hard pressed to pass up on the Raptor if spending over $50k. It’s not perfect, the fuel economy is the biggest issue for me, but all of these trucks have flaws.
-
I just love the duality of it all. Great performance, on road and off. Not overly jacked up but enough to tackle what most people would want. Inspiring engine (at least from a modern turbocharged perspective) and moderate size. I still like the idea of the Tacoma hybrid with it's 2.4kw onboard power and multilink rear suspension but I also like to hoon my daily driver so this may edge it out depending on how spritely it drives.

Awesome. Got mine 2 weeks ago . Worth every cent . Great review
