    2021 Ford Ranger Tremor Review! The Ford Ranger Tremor is a neat off-road version of the new Ford Ranger, but it's not quite the Ford Ranger we want. The Ranger Tremor is a cool truck, but it's no Raptor -- but I'll still show you all the quirks and features. I'm also going to drive the Ford Ranger Tremor and review the driving experience.

    I drove the new Ranger at a special event 2 1/2 years ago. I drove my 2018 Tacoma pro to the event so I had a back to back comparison. I can tell you this- the Ford was better in every aspect - power, transmission, interior, turning radius, and seating position. The only advantage to the Tacoma was the Fox suspension and its ride and maybe the looks by a smidge. I had the Tacoma for 3 months and 2300 miles and traded it in on a 2018 F150 Raptor at a $12000 loss. I f'd up and I admit it.

      I think its because of the American obbsession with big engines. Ranger Raptor has a 2.0 engine. in a country where family haulers have 3.5 engines it might hurt the brands image in the eyes of "VEE EEEEEIIGGGHHHTTTT" people.
      Even doug who is fairly open minded says it weird that it doesn't have a v6 despite the fact that engine in the video is bigger than the ranger raptors and he likes it. I can imagine american people looking at the 2.0 on a paper and don't even look at the truck.

    • @herranton
      @herranton Před 3 lety +1

      @@OKANGUVEN99 no. It's because they don't want to cannibalize real raptor sales. Demand is greater than supply for real raptors, and the profit margins are bigger on that. A ranger raptor would not only cut into those (and ford isn't going to choose to make less money), but it would also need to get a different engine, because a 2L diesel in a performance truck isn't going to cut it here. It would break the product line.

      The difference between cost and the price the dealer pays is virtually guaranteed to be bigger on the full size raptor. As long as demand outpaces supply, it would be dumb for Ford to sell product that would compete in the same market segment. They will only sell it once they need to attract new buyers.

    Love the new tremor packages, and wish this would have been available on the f150 when I bought mine. IMO this is a perfect softroader, allows you to add upgrades like lights with the built in switches, comes with good tires and tow hooks, skid plates and awesome shocks etc that you need to hit light trails.
    Also not really sure why he keeps saying its not nearly as good as a TRD pro? There isnt really anything that the TRD does better other than a bit more suspension travel and a bigger following. The ranger tremor is likely just as good, and the powertrain is far better, in addition to having the switches which make wiring so much easier.

I do enjoy it and I just couldn’t afford the raptor at 56,000 dollars. I got mine for 35,000 which was 10K down from sticker. Plus side mine was a lease return so it wasn’t super abused
