That new Ranger setup is so nice. That is my absolute dream rig, just so damn expensive.. Rough estimate probably $100k for the car + $50k ish for the canopy & all the accessories and upgrades. Can almost buy a house with that amount of money.. Before you even went on a single adventure. Now you also need to count insurance, fuel, service/maintenance.. I guess I'll just go camping with a supermarket trolley.

@Hopex_JZXMarkIIJZ 3 месяца назад

While it is a lovely setup I’d be slightly concerned about actually going on some tuff trails with this. The cost of breaking things on new cars in unreal plus all the possible electrical issues you can face with such a kitted car… I’d love it myself but I think you really have to think about what you want to do with it. An older 4wd definitely has its advantages being simpler and not so much electronics

@mastersKaaP 3 месяца назад

@@Hopex_JZXMarkIIJZ i wouldn't bring that rig near a tough trail. It's build for touring and towing, not thrashing it on harsh trails.

I used to work for the Caterpillar dealership in my state, never ever buy an ex Caterpillar work vehicle because we thrash them from new we don't even run them in, we wore a 87 hilux diesel 4x4 out that much that when we rebuild the engine it went from standard cylinders to maximum in its first build, ie we stuffed it real good.
