Quoted from Bill.
The Ranger's AWD T-Case is different to the outgoing Everest's, the Everest was permanent AWD with low range, but no actual lock (i.e. it did unlocked AWD high and AWD low). The new Ranger (in some configs) borrows the Bronco's T-Case, which can do 2WD high, AWD high, locked...
Is Ford offering any variations on the front differential.
Things like a locker, different gearing, larger Diff.
The previous Gen came with the Dana or Spicer M190 with the more robust M210 in the rear. The M190 is designed for a maximum 32 inch tire.
The only way I see you can get a locker is...
The Sedona Orange is a very striking color. I think that's the one they have on the Ranger Raptor. The Luke yellow is a bit much for me. I am more subdued, I did like the previous Gen Cactus Gray. The Meteor Gray is a little darker. The lighter colors are suppose to hide the off roading...
Ford Bronco Engine Problems Are a Growing Concern (motorbiscuit.com)
Valvetrain failures seem limited to Bronco models equipped with the 2.7-liter V6 engine. Clues indicate that the failures are related to the engine build date of models built between May 13 to October 8, 2021. This is...
I found it interesting that you could purchase a 5G Scab Lariat. Now those are rare. You could only buy a XLT in the Scab in Canada.
Probably be the same for the 6G.
If I buy a 6G it will be the Screw in the PHEV. The box is actually large then my 2011 Ranger Scab 6' box. Just wanted to have the...
I am a Super Cab guy. Wondering if this configuration will even exist once partial or full electrification happens.
I would say Ford sells just enough of them to make it viable with the ICE motor.
I am having a feeling that Ford will never produce a PHEV model.
I couldn't even find a picture of...
The Tacoma test mule for 2024 model has rear coil springs and disc brakes. I would think you would pay more for the coil spring setup then the leafs.
2024 Toyota Tacoma seems to have a rear coil spring suspension (autoblog.com)
That's one rough test mule.
Is this a Ranger off the lot or can you order it. I have wondered if there are great deals on out going models. Although its supply and demand.
It will be a while to order a 6G Ranger and have it in your drive way in NA. As you said a lot of problematic things going on in the world. I am...
I found this article a little more insightful about the 6G Ranger. I find a lot of supposed automotive journalist lacking in the model knowledge.
Sometimes they are even cautious to criticize the vehicle or just do not offer any useful information.
I felt the Moto 1 journalist gave a good...
It looks like the single cab will be offered. I agree with Billy, the seats probably do not offer a lot of adjustment for the larger person. In XL trim you will be getting very basic seats.
Yes, 2023 Ford Ranger is also available as a work truck - Auto News (autoindustriya.com)
I looked at the 3.0L Raptor Bronco a bit more, I can see why it get's 15MPG combined. It exceeded the power ratings at 418 hp and 440 ft/lbs of torque. Base Raptors weigh 5,733 pounds, while a base two-door Bronco with the V6 can weigh as little as 4,491 pounds.) It has 37" tires and I would...
Single cab or Regular Cab is a two door truck with a 7' bed. Usually, used as a work vehicle and can be purchased without a bed.
The Super Cab or SCAB is a two door truck with smaller rear doors with 6' bed. Super Crew or SCREW is a 4 door truck with 5' bed.
Both SCAB and SCREW will be offered...
Bronco Raptor Fuel Economy: 1 MPG better then Jeep Rubicon 392. The fuel economy for the 2022 Ford Bronco Raptor is out, and buyers should be prepared for an expensive trip to the gas station whenever refueling the tank, given current fuel prices. The SUV gets a combined 15 mpg. Seems to be ok...
Prices for the Bronco Raptor start at $69,995 (including the $1,495 destination fee). Assuming you tick every option box, the price rises to $82,550. The available upgrades included leather-trimmed vinyl seats, adaptive cruise control, a heated steering wheel, B&O stereo, and a lot more.
Running along the Bronco in the US Michigan Wayne factory the Ranger will probably have even more options then the previous Gen. NA small trucks are daily commuters, off road adventure, hauling crap in the bed, towing, camping trucks, etc. If you wanted a work truck you would chose the F 150...
I have been told that the ROW Ford site is up and running for the 6G Ranger. Use 2000 as postal code.
Is that all the options they get. Very lacking compare to NA models. I guess they are more work trucks then leisure.
