Hooning A New Ford Ranger Pickup Off-Road 

yeah, I'm confused as well

Hyperbole

It's ok he's British

Yeah. 17 tons, 17 thousand, 1700, thats how i understood it

+The Joker 17 tons is 34K Lbs

Yup

yup

Dodge 318 Cummins how do you know he's not American speaking for Americans.

*they're genius

+Sammy Kastanja I'm a U.S. citizen and pissed that we don't get that truck here!

True

Mcm had the best review because...well, because they're mcm and mcm is awesome!

+TheOnlyOne ROLF KANYAYED SO HARD

+Karen Warner you know no one likes a feminist that's always complaining.

+TheOnlyOne it looks like a subaru baja

I know right

Fucked up comment but the way he said it with a straight face had me cracking up!

omg I just watched that part and paused it.... like did he just say that ? XD omg laughing so hard at that one

+Tadas Turonis how

+M3XICAN_SWAG sounds like something top gear would say, i approve

+Lee Proffitt no

I think so

Yes, because most are and you know it

+Lee Proffitt yeah he did lmao i laughed so hard

+Lee Proffitt He was saying American children weigh 300+ pounds on average.

I was thinking the same thing...

Well it's something your typical sedan wouldn't go trough, and it was mostly gravel and snow

+Driftking11 yeah right ive gone thru worse in a hyundai elantra.

i'm from Calgary Alberta and I'm in BC a lot too. This isn't anywhere close to off-roading for any vehicle we drive anything anywhere

+RandomPixel And what drug is it simulating?

+HKPPK H "Evidence from the present and previous studies strongly suggests that alcohol encourages risky driving whereas THC encourages greater caution, at least in experiments." I doubt its simulating weed

+RandomPixel That is the proof that carbuilding is not the only thing Ford hasn't got a clue about !!!

***** yeah that's really funny but it doesn't change a thing about what I said....it isn't especially a Ford problem. People pay so much for cars with 20 year old technology it is just insane! Cars like this truck are maybe worth like 12k pound ...at most !!! and even this is overpaid.

+pol1250 good logic.

IKR!!!!!

ASAP

+oliver24x Fuck, first i thought you where talking about drugs, with all that drug suit thing...

+zygimantas92 Wait...what? He's not?

I think he's talking about the limited slip differential, but it could be drugs, sounds purposely ambiguous

That was hilarious 😂

thats on roading right

+Liquid.Song it's on a trial basically

The truck is actually worth something, so he didn't go too hard on it. Check out his videos on cheap shitboxes which go offroad

+Audiwan Kenobi nothing to learn from it. what can a dude driving a pickup for the first time ever in his life possibly have to say about it in a review? he has no parameters other than his damn fiesta.

True

+Ryan Haywood actually the ford ranger is based off the gmc canyon as you can tell by its body

+Ryan Haywood ya it's like that for every company that makes suvs and pick up trucks ford Chevy do that

+Ryan Haywood Haywood ya blow me?

+Adam Walters coming from someone who dailys a ford excursion 6.0 Powerstroke, i agree. i do think its pretty cool that fords got a new 5 cylinder turbo diesel though, probably push some pretty good numbers out of it with a good tune and new turbo

+HobosGoneWild cuz Americans love their trucks

Because Ford is American?

Because Ford is American and the Ranger is returning in 2019, so is the Bronco in 2020.

+iGot AZombieArmy ikr it looks like the driveway to my cabin lol

+iGot AZombieArmy Shhhh. Let them have their fun.

but real talk tho how is it offroad when there still on road?

Not like he chose where to drive it seen as its a Ford press release so...

they were on the same trip as supercarsoflondon for the press reviews and they acutally went off roading and mudding

but is it off a concrete/tarmac road?

ford is a goddamn american

Now it is 🤗🤗

+RallyDriva like Clarkson with less originality

+Zonda Man It's not real off-roading but it is still technically off the road.

Subarus are not as cool as trucks you puss.

Cory R Calm down mate, that's just his opinion.

+Zonda Man a subaru would have snapped its stock suspension on that bump

OriginaLz yeah

+Shavoy reid Yeah dude idk why some of us Americans get so pissed, probably why a lot of countries hate us

+Austin Avila sounds like you're compensating there mate.

Just because this is Car Throttle doesn't mean you can't like trucks.

We are getting the ranger again

GT6SuzukaTimeTrials because the last one (2007) sucked dick

the ranger its been around for longer than the new colorado

+LUIS NAJERA the new Colorado came out 2 years ago... 2016 is fords first new attempt at the ranger.

+Adam Walters no, this generation of the ranger came out in 2012, this is just a facelift we have this truck in mexico. and its for sale in other parts of america( the actual america), europe and africa.

+Ranon Ibbotson We would if they weren't $120,000 here.. $65,000 is much better value.

No it's not Australian, it's nowhere near Aussie. It's American branded and built in Thailand.

+Chrisco_96 Third-generation models, as produced since 2011, were designed and engineered by Ford Australia, with Mazda offering a derivative version of the Ford as the second generation BT-50. The Ford Ranger is also the basis for the Ford Everest SUV and therefore, the Ranger and the Everest share a number of features. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Ranger

Chrisco_96 it's designed in Australia

It was a joke M8

Metric tonnes.

+WitherTux Metric tons are heavier than imperial tons.

Jokes

+Gary Cohen wait what the fuck

What and your gmc is a true truck

Right, we only have trucks.... oh, and the Colorado

this specific one is coming to the US, how did you miss the big news?

I already know of someone who bought one

It's coming, sort of...

novemberSUN1 yeah ford hasn't been very clear about what version is coming.

haha exactly

Dāvis Kalniņš they have 1.9M subscribers

@@TheDarknessConsumesMe666 His comment was 2 years before yours 😂

+Adam Loer Yep we love to make fun of feminists but when it turns to us most just act the same

Not pissed off just sad he could not test a REAL truck like a Tundra...

Koshunae they won't seek in the states because everyone would make fun of them

Koshunae I hope we get small trucks again. Never liked big trucks and those things just keep getting bigger. I felt like I was driving a bus when I got behind the wheel of a newer f150.

I would like a fullsize for the towing capability but my ranger can pull most of what I want. I have an aftermarket class 3 so I could pull a small car if I wanted, but it would be struggling the whole way through.

Koshunae better drivetrain, leafs from a larger truck and strengthen the frame and you should be good. I feel like ford kept the rangers underpowered so it wouldn't bite into the f150 sales as much. Kinda funny how the 5.0 from the explorer is nearly a plug and play swap but the rangers never got the engine from the factory.

It is nearly a plug and play but there is a bit of fab that needs to be done to get it to work well. But as far as making my ranger better at towing, I could buy a fullsize anything for the price it takes to strengthen the frame put a stronger drivetrain in it. Not to mention I only have the sohc 4 cylinder.

+Marloon This review was filled with many jokes. You have found one of them

Marloon I've found that for the most part ford trucks are reliable same with chevy and dodge

Heh...oh yes we do

+Micah Bennett no we don't go to they stopped production in the early 2000's

+Evan Amado I know this, I own a 1998 Ranger. I've heard of the new model already being sold to some people in the US and if they were marketing it to the UK why would they make it left hand drive in the first place?

+Evan Amado they're bringing them back in the next 2 years

+Micah Bennett Yeah I just noticed that, and that is just good news that it is coming to the US

You're not alone, Alex doesn't know jack shit about pickups

It has 470 Nm

370lbft. That's nearly 500nm

It's actually 470 Nm. Which I reckon is a little bit low too, but unlike a LR Discovery 4 which makes close to 600 Nm from its 3 litre V6, the Ranger has a more even spread of torque across its rev range. For a vehicle that'll be hauling and towing regularly I reckon 470 Nm is a good number for reliability and performance.

exactly 470nm and 200hp.. volvo did 500+ nm and 200hp from 2.4 TDI since 2010

Jirka Cvrcek I have a friend who loves volvos and even he will admit that they have problems with the turbos and intercoolers after a while. Too much stress. This 3.2L V6 in the Ranger will be bullet proof by comparison since its down-tuned deliberately for reliability.

why?

Martin Larin he kept making jokes about this truck being American and Ford only sells the ranger in Australia, the middle east and some parts of asia I think

+Nour Nachabe It's made by aussies

+Nour Nachabe why did ford decide to do it that way? pickup trucks are a part of the american culture... i think...

+Martin Larin the ranger is considered to be a mid sized truck and american buyers mostly desire full sized trucks like the F150

how is that not a pick up truck?

+Aaron Lopez yes it's truck, but it's not a truck truck. F-150 1500's etc. are actual trucks the ranger is just a explorer with a bed. I would know I have a sport trac it's a large suv with a bed. That thing can't haul anything worth hauling.

+HyperDriveHD a 'truck truck' as you say is a whole diffrent ball game dude a truck is like a chevy kodiak or gmc top kick, the F-150, Silverado, Ram and so on are Full size PICKUP trucks and if the ranger would come back to the US it would give the colorado frontier and the rest a healthy competition

+Aaron Lopez you're totally right about it competing with the Colorado I don't know why they got rid of ranger or the sport trac. It was a good truck to have where you could take the family out and put some stuff in the back and get better mpg. But it's simply not a commercial truck. It might be able to haul 3.5 tons etc. but I highly doubt it can do that on a day to day grind without struggling... a lot. The guy that I bought my car off of his 2010 ranger couldn't haul the 2200-2300 pound rx7 without struggling

+HyperDriveHD Im originally from mexico and i see these trucks take a beating all the time back in my hometown, mexico's petrol prices are through the roof that why trucks like this are around with smaller engines the ones that cant take a beating like the rangers, Np300, hilux and tacoma(Toyota mexico sells both hilux and tacoma) is the 4 cil s10

+MAEguy his "how hard can it be" is just stealing from top gear xD

Yeah because if a car reviewer wants to take the piss out of Americans then they're automatically trying to be like Clarkson. Let's completely disregard the fact that a lot of non Americans just generally like to poke fun at Americans because... Well, [they're] a laughing stock.

Shona No, the two aren't necessarily related. Even if he didn't even mention America, it would still seem liking he was copying Clarkson's style, and he can't pull it off.

MAEguy A lot of them are like that, Clarkson is only seen as the forefather of this style because he's the most known. That doesn't make it his style, it's just the way British people are. They're very sarcastic, they like to exaggerate the statistics to an extent and they like to be edgy/make borderline offensive jokes or comments.

Shona It's not that. There are plenty of other British reviews out there to watch and none of them have this problem. Richard and James are funny too, but they have their own style. Fifth Gear does excellent and fairly entertaining reviews too in a completely different way. Chris Harris is just as sarcastic and opinionated as Clarkson, but yet he still makes it his own. Even Carfection (terrible name, great videos) pulls off quintessentially British car reviews that rival the best of them. They don't have to overly embellish anything, but they're still funny and at least they're also informative. None of these other British reviewers are half as annoying as this. The problem is that he tries too hard. His "humor" comes off labored and unoriginal. At that point it stops being funny and starts being annoying. But 12 year old Car Throttle fans love it, so they just keep putting him in videos and having him act even more ridiculous. At the risk of sounding like a hipster I'll say Car Throttle was better before it was cool. It's not without merit now, but the "funny" videos usually aren't and the comment section is often full of crap.

why because he drives an amazing mazda mx5?

+Tobiepigeon Skateboarding I live in the US and I drive an MX5 and yeah it's pretty amazing. I think the review is pretty funny and probably very insightful for many Americans since some of what he says is true!

Just here for the cars

+Maurice H This was actually a coincidence.

uhuh, the attempts at copying the style of mcm and the mcm top 10 are coincidence aswell

Same power to weight ratio though.

+Antoine I would be like an American making fun of Japanese and JDM products in a Tundra video.

You're North American

Scelo Fakazi Yes, but how else am I to say I'm not from the US? Non-United Statesian? I think not.

+Aryzen Inniriea haha that sounds pretty cool actually

Scelo Fakazi If that's what you prefer... I am Canadian. Not United Statesian.

Aryzen Inniriea Aryzen Inniriea I understand what you meant, I guess I got to fix myself and make a joke about something else
