The 2.3L seems to have plenty of power. Don't know how that plays out if you up the tire size a lot. If you ask me the 2.3L is the tried and true engine that gets good mpg's.

So if you turn off lane centering and just use adaptive cruise control do you still have to keep squeezing the steering wheel?

The Raptor is the performance model, not the most loaded model right? You're paying for the upgraded suspension and engine.

They also put a bunch of crap on the Tacoma. Definitely not an apples to apples comparison. The FX4 and the TRD offroad compete with each other. They did kind of show that Toyota's traction control system works better than Fords, but you know lock the differential. I sat in the new Tacoma...

Nice to see Australian parts making it to the US already. I want an old man emu lift kit, skid plates, rock sliders and a front bumper. Are you guys going to be an importer for all this stuff or just for the skid plates?

Everything in my GTI came this way, its surprisingly nice.

So far the best looking stock wheels, I like the XLT FX4 2nd best, whatever they're called.

If this is true its sure going to speed up the aftermarket parts availability for our Rangers. I wonder if the underbody armor fits.

That makes sense.

The Raptor is built for high speed desert running. My thoughts were for overlanding I need a suspension that can handle more weight, kind of like a Tacoma Trailhunter vs TRD Pro. Also I didn't need the premium interior, I'm probably going to beat this truck up a bit.

I think they are to handle the weight for people putting rooftop tents and stuff on. I will probably only get a rooftop tent if I plan on going into Grizzly country.

I've got myself programed now, when I start the truck I turn off the parking brake and the on/off at the same time.

Is that secure when the tailgate is closed, or can people open it?

No, I have an FX4 that I plan on modifying for overland. There aren't much in the way of aftermarket parts for the new Ranger yet, so it might be a while.

So the answer to tire size for the Ranger is you can't go over 33.6" without modifying the truck fender area?

Indeed, now it needs a roof rack to balance out the looks.
