While everyone else scrambles to review race cars (nothing wrong with that) you guys review cars that are affordable for normal people.

    Ranger Fx4 owner. 2000 miles in. Haven’t seen that weird electronic issue you guys faced. The rear back seat does require a strong scary slam to lock though.
    Outside of that; I waited for this Ranger - over Tacoma / Colorado, for the power #s, style, and technology.
    This has all the tech assists you find in modern cars (adaptive cruise, Apple/Droid auto, terrain selection found in Raptor, ...).
    Taco, Colorado, Ranger- to each their own. But I’m LOVING mine.

      @@thatoneotherotherguy The Ranger has too much tech then you really need. The center stack with small knobs/buttons and a dial is too car like. In fact its from a fusion from the looks of it. So is the gauge cluster. 3 smaller digital gauges. Its a hot mess reading all the smallish text. I prefer my Frontier Pro 4X. Has one row for all that. Dial for 2wd 4hi/lo and for rear locker. Button for descent control. The ranger has too much electronic tech. And its literally drove up the price 5K-10K over the competition. About the only think I wish my Nissan had is the blind spot alert. That is actually useful. Your better off just getting the regular XL with 4x4 with rear locker. Forget the FX4 package. I'm not hearing good things about it. and it has a rougher ride on road.

      The shake is due to dealers not lowering the tire pressure to 30psi after shipment. Anyone who test drives one should check the tire pressure on the cluster, it’ll likely be over 40psi in which case you’ll experience the shutter in the rear.

      I know this is old, but I test drove multiple models. My observation was that basic Sport suspension shook. 2019 model did it and I have up on the Ranger. New 2021 did as well. Butttt the FX4 did not. Not at all. I hope the Tremor is the same way. So lesson learned, get the off-road suspension

    Good truck for many people. But I feel like the F-150 is a much better buy because it's aluminum and can get the 3.5 EcoBoost. I bet the F-150 tows better too if you really need to pull 7500lbs pretty often. Also appears there is no built in trailer brake controller option on ford.com for the ranger which legally limits the ranger to towing 3000lbs by law in most provinces and states since trailer brakes are a requirement above that weight limit. Just something to keep in mind for people looking to buy this truck. You're gonna have to buy an aftermarket trailer brake controller (which isnt a big deal).

      I was thrust into being an interim fleet manager for my previous employer, on top of my project management duties. We had about 120 vehicles in our fleet, most being Ford's between the 2013-2017 models. Fiesta's, Focus', Fusion's, F-150's, Econoline vans. The F-150's and Econoline vans were fine, but everything else was an utter fail! In fact, out of 68 cars, 41 of them needed new transmissions within the first 50,000 miles, and a few of the vehicles needed the transmissions replaced twice. What in the hell is Ford doing in their assembly plants to have so many transmission failures? Also, tons of electrical issues. I'd steer clear of the brand; that's just way too many issues for it to be a fluke IMO.

    The codes usually happens when there is a battery issue with modern cars. If you cannot change the battery or check it for faults, leave the car off for about 10 minutes, it should reset. It won't if the battery's voltage is too low. Happened with us when we bought our Renegade, it had been on the floor for 8 months and the battery had gone bad, Jeep swopped it out for us, and never had an issue since.

    Nice collaboration with Chrisfix! I have driven many of the older Rangers through the generations and was excited to get the Pipe's Perspective.
    I agree that it doesn't look bold enough in the front end for a truck. The rake of the hood gives it SUV face. It already looks dated, (especially in that colour) but I'm sure Ford will do a refresh in less than 3 years - especially if people are willing to spend $50K on one. For that money, I'd get a well optioned Tacoma. The Toyota will hold it resale value much better than this Ranger.
