• 2019 Ford Ranger XLT -...
• The 2020 Jeep Gladiato...
The #FordRanger has always had such a loyal following for years that most were shocked when #Ford let the #Ranger die nearly a decade ago here in America. Thankfully, a new resurgence in the compact truck segment has forced Ford to bring back the Ranger for 2019. It returns with probably the best gas powertrain in the segment, actual small truck dimensions, and handsome styling. Unfortunately, it has two big flaws that keep it from being a top pick in the segment and Ford could easily address it with a mild refresh. - Auta a dopravní prostředky
"If you got taller friends you may want to consider a full size truck." Is my friends helping me pay this truck off? If not, then they better squeeze their 'daddy long legs' in the back 😂😂😂
Heck yea! Love my new '19 Ranger XLT FX4!
I have a 2019 F150 Limited and that's a full size and I also have a 2004 Nissan Pathfinder Platinum Edition. 21 years old and I'm so blessed to have those 2 vehicles.
@@Davido50 Have the same exact truck, loving it so much.
And it can be yours for the price of a mortgage payment.
Haha for real. Not once have I ever thought of my friends when buying a vehicle. They have their own.
Didn’t realise the furniture leaning on the tailgate would add to the weight .... bent his thumb ! What a dope.
Max Flight That’s SOYfan for you.
Lol I laughed when he said that too.
This ranger right here should’ve been released 5 years ago
Its drives real nice & powertrain blows away competition. I drove em all an bought a '19 Ranger XLT FX4 crew cab.
it was just not here lol
And cost 5 grand less
Not enough demand for these trucks. And honestly, there was a time small cars and trucks were actually affordable. Now, with prices the way they are, you're virtually better off going full size.
They were in Europe over 6 years ago. A lot of midsize trucks are available in Europe that they don't sell in the U.S. including the Toyota Hilux and Nissan Patrol.
he lost me when he was whining about his poor little thumb 😂
He lost me on a lot of the lame nitpicks. I like his reviews. Been watching him for like 2 or 3 years but still.
@@bacardim390 I wouldn't call it lame at all. Your paying a hefty price. It's safe to assume most people paying for a monthly car payment would want something they actaully like.
Bacardi M3 He kinda has to compare little things to other vehicles to let people know what one car or truck has vs another. It’s helpful when looking to buy.
😂😂😂😂
💅
Was considering the Ranger, but ended up going with the F-150 STX 4X4 with the EB 2.7. Was able to get $9K off MSRP between the rebates and the Ford offer. That brought the price well under even a mid-level Ranger, so for me it was a no brainer.
How you liking that 2.7???
@@ichor20 It's been very impressive. The quiet/powerful thrust at low RPM gives the truck sort of an upscale feel to it. I've had many V8 vehicles in the past, so not having that sound in a full-size truck doesn't bother me. I've "had my fun" so to speak lol.
@@jrite77 wish they put that 2.7 in the Ranger.
@@jrite77 its gonna fall apart, like most Fords do.
I prefer the Ranger over a full-size since it’s so much easier to drive. But I’m glad your enjoying your F150
Sofyan "Doesn't realize adding weight to a tailgate adds weight to a tailgate" Bey.
Just got a Ranger Lariat last week! We really like it so far and the B&O sound system does sound really good. I also have an F150 but The size of this truck is perfect. Much easier to maneuver around.
hows the bass? does it have a subwoofer? I'm also interested in this trim just curious!
@@robertocaballero3259 It does have a sub-woofer. Great sound!
How’s the space and power ?
Drew G the power is great. Same engine as in the Mustang. And plenty of room in the four door.
@@DG-gr7qf Power is great, rear seat leg room for adults is a tad small but not cramped by any means. Front seats are incredibly comfortable.
Ford hurting customers fingers one truck at a time
When sofyan gets a vehicle to test out for a while he uses that shit like it’s his own lmao
I needed to return this furniture and luckily I have this borrowed truck
My dog had the shits but he didn’t find the back seats if this 2019 Lincoln very comfortable
He had to return it because he probably couldn't figure out how to assemble it, lol.
Test drove Tacoma, Colorado & all new Ranger ..as these were trucks we liked. Was so impressed w/ Ranger's powertrain engineering & overall super solid /yet plush ride .. we quickly bought a gorgeous '19 Ranger XLT FX4 crew cab black on black last wk an love it! Great looking.. has tons of tech features.. sportiest truck in class.. & powertrain tech is so far ahead of all others. No surprise tho. Ford is king of trucks for good reason! Btw , dealers cannot keep these on the lots so ppl are taking notice. Ranger is back big!
You know man, I'm glad its treating you good!
Your kidding right? I havent seen a single one on the road yet. Tacoma is still eating them for breakfast
@@cutsilver3650 I've seen a ton of them, chill bro.
My local dealer still has the first Ranger it got back in late Feb or early March, funny to see it still sitting there all this time.
I don't see anything wrong with the interior, looks nice and modern.
Lol
madmio M modern for the year of 2014
The interior is adequate but it’s old and looks like it’s from an Edge 5-7 years ago. It’s old tech, they should have refreshed the interior before bringing it to North America.
Mike C it’s the best tech on the market. Sync 3 is old tech?
i have the 2019 ranger. its not old, i had a 2018 F105 and this is comparable. people bitching are comparing it to vehicles that are $15k more.
Ford is probably already working on the next gen ranger. Rest assured the next gen is going to be a much much better truck. It really just leaves the question why did ford bring an old platform to America. They should have just launched with an all new truck for the start.
brendan meyler gonna have a hybrid system
For sure nd they prolly co developing with VW
Exactly, why not just redesign the whole thing then bring it
probably want to enter the market with old platform for cost cutting and confirming interest and then potentially capitalize on it the following year by saying "hey look how much cooler it is now, BUY IT"
Let’s be honest, they shouldn’t have left the midsize truck market to begin with. Not to mention how a true mini raptor would be awesome
@Jon Doe not really a truck guy myself so I don't have a proper perspective on their production outlook. All I know is people care a lot about the name and with Ford's rep in trucks I wouldn't doubt a lot of people giving it a chance.
"At 5'7 i have plenty of headroom in here" .... yeah i would hope so🤔
LOL!
Ford must be out of its goddamn mind if they think this truck is worth anywhere near $45k. Absurd.
Lariat. F-150 Lariat *starts* at 44k

Ikr cars are getting expensive
D LG they’re just trying to get the most out of it. Everyone was hyped the ranger was coming back so they priced it high to capitalize on the hype. Give it a while and they’ll come down in price.
@@thehunter9149 This isn't even a 'new' design. It's been sold in other world markets for years. There shouldn't be ANY Ranger that cost more than upper $30s. Hell, you can get a LOADED Tacoma TRD Off-Road trim for $42k and that truck puts this thing to shame.
Seems silly to complain about not having a dampened tailgate? Yep, you're right.
right? ive only ever owned old trucks so im used to heavy non damped tailgates, i just came off owning a 1996 f250 7.3 and that tailgate was like 50 pounds, my new rangers aluminum tailgate can be opened with your pinky its so light
Living under a rock?? LOL!! LMAO!! The half-ton trucks are currently having a tailgate war!! Modern truck should have a tailgate that is dampened...IMHO.
The dampened tailgate is so common now, it's easy to be caught by surprise when it's full weight is coming down.
I just got the 19 xlt trim and after comparing it with the Tacoma, Colorado for the price the ranger was at $25,101 and came with more features than the other models for that price range. Lane keep ast, blind spot, front and rear parking sensors and collision warning and dimming rear view mirror. Plus the 8 in touch screen actually runs something. Idk I kinda like the “older” simpler look of the dash. The engine is definitely fun as well!!
When he bent his thumb he only cried for 20 mins
Weeny hut 😂😂
🤣
Na bro. That’s a Weeny Hut Jr.!
Nah super weeny hut jr
Needs to go to weeny hut general
Something as cool as that truck is not having a sun roof is beyond belief. Really. Were they trying to not sell more of these? That thing would feel even better on the inside with a sun roof, I can see it.
The only tiny flaw is in my pants
It looks good but the longevity of the powertrain is questionable. Typically Toyota’s are just getting broken in when Fords are ready for the scrap yard.
Hahaha dumbest comment by far! Fords EcoBoost tech & engineering has revolutionized the truck class. Ford trucks are #1 for good reason. Toyota isnt even on the map. Ur trolling. Truck guys will laugh at this totally. Gen1 EcoBoost F150s are documented over 300k in the tens of thousands now. We are on Gen2 EcoBoost. All Fords engines & diesels are best in class.
@@Davido50 I agree with Shawn white ... Talk shit when that Ford hits 6 700k miles ... 💪💪 I'll wait and for the record my dad had a f150 with 450000 and it was so damn raggedy falling apart lol
@@Davido50 Toyota not even on the map? Little guy the Tacoma is the best selling mid sized truck on the market.
Jeranium Crump your comment makes no fucking sense... (6 700k)= 6,700,000? Your daddy’s truck has half a million miles on it and you are talking shit on it. You sir are a moron...
If you're getting 450k miles on a gas truck, I wouldn't complain about it at all 😅
Good looking truck. Beautiful color with this trim🏎
Saw my first Ranger yesterday, looks compact and maneuverable. Would consider getting one for myself
Like the Ford better than the Tacoma... more refined with boxed frame..... Overall just a better truck.
The Tacoma will last longer though.
In addition to it basically being a refreshed version of a 2013 South American Ranger, it's got no damped tailgate, no 60/40 rear, no fold flat floor in the rear, no cargo bed management or power, no rear air vents, gloss plastic trim, 2013 lcd screens and infotainment, keyed ignition, no cooled seats, no sunroof, no tow/haul mode, cheap doors and dash...oh and it's like $45k
None of that is even accurate, but okay. 🧐
I'm glad they brought the Ranger back. I'm buying one next year.
I drove one and almost bought it last Saturday. It's a simple truck with high quality. It pulls good at low engine speeds but takes a dive at higher RPM. That's not too bad considering it has a 10 speed. Would be nice if there was a tow mode for transmission shifts to allow for later shifts when on the throttle. The one thing that made me not buy it, and I am picky, is it sounds like a groany 4 cylinder. Smoothness just isn't there, but don't get me wrong, if you aren't looking for a midsize truck to drive as quiet as a V6 or V8, it's a great truck. It's very comfortable and the extra cab has a good long 6ft bed. If I wasn't doing a 140 mile a day round trip that demanded a high comfort level for a 50 year old to conquer, I would definitely buy one. It's a lot of truck for the meager price.
Bought a 2019 stx ranger sat I just luv it plenty of power and torque very comfortable and the technology is unmatched for a midsize crewcab
I have a question what truck should we get in the 40 to 47k? And it needs to be able to carry a quad please can someone help me
I hate how it looks so narrow
Driving it.. i love how narrow it feels..
Us watching the video: am i joke to you
For a “small” truck this thing looks pretty gigantic. What if I actually want a small truck?
All minor issues the powertrain more then makes up for it with it's fun factor.i have a 2019 fully loaded slot with the 4x4 package and I absolutely love the truck.
Great review!
Great review. I love the outside looks but agree that the interior was a missed opportunity. I think this vehicles Achilles heel is the fact a new is coming out in a couple years which is why I don’t think we’re getting a vehicle you can actually get choices (like engine and moonroof, etc). I think this was a decent band aid to hold over until the new one arrives. But if you can wait then wait. The next gen will be the one to get.
In Oz we have this series Ranger in a Raptor model. 2 litre twin turbo. 220 bhp, 380 ft lb torque. 10 speed auto, full Fox suspension, leather Recaro interior. Sounds sweet until they hit you with a USD $50k price tag! Ouch. We are MUGS!
Thanks; as always the best
Great Review Of 2019 Ford Ranger. 😀
Spoken like a true city boy.
Synyster Goose hey man he strained his thumb give him a break
eyyyyy gatkeeping
The towing capacity at 7,500 lbs seems respectable.
@redline reviews the reason why it doesn't use the inglass keypad is because it's a work truck and the person using it might be wearing work gloves which don't work with capacitive buttons. The f150 is the same way.
Are the power seats only available in the Lariat model? I'm 6 4 and need to be able to lower the seat.
Outstanding review,thank you.The Ranger isn’t bad for a first attempt in the segment Hopefully,in a year or two they will have corrected its shortcomings.Then I would seriously consider purchasing one.
The previous generation US Ranger never came in a crew cab.
nice review i just did one on a honda accord touring love your vids
Ford might think twice before sending you another vehicle to review.😵 Truth hurts😂
Oh well Ford should probably not send a piece of shit
That’s why we don’t have honest reviews any more people get butt hurt so easily
Just shows how FORD is so desperate to try and pass a decade old truck on North America!! It's a shame that this American company cannot come up with a modern design. It's just a piece of JUNK!! Shame on FORD!!
The next generation Ranger is due out in a couple years, seems extremely foolish to buy the current one that was slapped together.
@@Shakerhood69 I hope they take the first step into offering more power. Would love to a little truck with the 3.5 Twin-turbo.
For the halogens bulbs at the license plate, you can fix that with a good set of Leds from ebay/amazon.
That was the first thing I did to mine
This truck suits my needs perfectly. I can't afford a full size pick up and getting this one used would make me very happy.
Don't understand why you're saying it's narrow. All of the spec sheets have its width at 86", which is a full 10" wider than the Tacoma.
From what I can gather, the specs for the Tacoma don't include the width of the mirrors. That may account for the difference. This doesn't look 10" wider than a Tacoma
It is skinner than a Tacoma, those dimensions are counting the side view mirrors.
That’s a really nice color!
I love blue cars and trunk
I ordered my 2019 Ford Ranger in February and picked it up May 3rd. I have not noticed the transmission or suspension issues you mentioned. in 2,900 miles I am averaging 21.8 mpg.
I am 5'11" and my son-in-law is 6'2" and he both fit well in the rear seat (behind me). I test drove the Toyota Tacoma and the Chevy Colorado prior to ordering my truck, both of them felt cheap in comparison the the Ranger (that is why I purchased one). I test drove all three trims of the Ranger before getting the Lariat SuperCrew. I would recommend the fully loaded options, mine is loaded and I paid 42,792 before tax and license. If you order from the dealership you can get it for less (if you can wait).
I like having a key pad. Good review.
I really hope Ford eventually offers a base model with an I4 engine and a manual transmission. Also, they should really design these to look more like a small F-150 rather than one of their crossovers.
Great review on the Ford Ranger
Your getting pretty good at these
Drove a number of ford ranger company vehicles in Thailand back in the early 2000. Of the five rangers we used 3 had differential hums after 10K kilometers. 2 have Turbo charger issues before 20K km had to be towed back as truck can only run for 20 kph. Company changed them out for toyoya Hilux.
The tail gate drop for Chevy doesn’t drop like that it has a feature where it has some kind of spring like let’s u drop it down with you. But the drop reminds me of a old school ford truck tailgate drop.
That 1993 keypad. Hahahah.
Im getting this truck in a few months with 6ft bed so my 4 wheeler can fit with the tailgate closed etc
As a three owner at the time of this post, The Ranger Fx4 is a solid f$cking truck! It’s fast too!
Jump seats in midsize trucks are useless, I’d much prefer extra storage instead of claustrophobic, impractical, unsafe and uncomfortable jump seats.
wow, americans must be really huge. these seats are the standard seat for any typical car in the rest of the world. but for americans they want a rolling living room pretty much
Those are hardly jump seats and are nearly on par with most compacts. Certainly adequate for children and average size adults
If they have their own dedicated doors, they are not jump seats.
Jump seats?
You should rename your channel to “The Door Whisperer”
I'd go with 'The Map Pocket Maven ' - but both work.
No worries. If you wait they will give the updates it neeeds. This is just a test mule to see how it goes
Any update with Fords corrective action on the 2.3L blocks open deck design and possible coolant leaking into the cylinders? I understand they updated with a new head gasket pn but I think that’s just a band-aid fix. Their Focus RS has had lots of issues with that.
'And as most of you know," The proceeds to tell us anyway.
I hope the US market should have a 2.0 liter Biturbo Diesel from SouthEast Asia. Quite emotional!!
Sofyan said something that was great about him with the desk,they should have put a damp tailgate, but anyway outstanding review.
The modern automatic transmission adapts to the way the driver drives over a period of a few weeks
If you watch 3:35-3:45 with your eyes closed it feels/ sounds like a elevator just came with that chime.
Nice!!
Is this ranger a squar body ? Cuz the GMC crayon I have that’s a 2017 is all half moon shaped in the back and I hate the look of it so that’s why I might get this one the ford ranger lariat cuz the back of the cab looks like it comes straight down like a square body which is what I would want
Ford is wilding with that price
Edgar Joaquin after one year it’s dropped 10kq
10k*
In a midsize truck, I honestly don’t care if the cabin is not super duper modern or if the upper door panels are hard plastic. Not a luxury vehicle, it’s a utility vehicle.
True but at leas redesign the dam interior that's just ford being lazy and cost cutting
Price needs to reflect that then
Truck’s aren’t your thing, but I think you did a fair job, but no one’s offered an 8 ft bed in a mid size truck since the Dodge Dakota in 2000, and you don’t let the tailgate slam down, and Ford fudged their MPG numbers
Now Ford Needs to bring a Ranger Raptor to America, and if they do it Should come with the EcoBoost 2.7 V6 STANDARD!
those ecoboost engines have issues
I always watch your latest vids during lunch at work. There's still two hours until lunch but I'm pre-liking this video and leaving a comment. Keep up the good work!
Nice little truck
Why do people whine about tailgates not being damped? Must be the same that whine about having to load their own stuff too.
How is the bolstering? My 15 JGC is terrible.
What midsize truck has an "updated" interior? No one if you really think about it
Toyota added Apple and Android CarPlay 🤣🤣 does that count?
I own it and love it. If you're 6'1'' or taller and in the market for a mid-size I'd definitely take it on a test drive before jumping in a tacoma.
Me too. Just bought a '19 Ranger XLT FX4 crew cab. Love it. Best powertrain in class hands dwn.
It's not an F150, take it as the class Ford is after. It will be a sales home run.
After a year, it's in 3rd place out of 7 brands and sold nearly 90k. Not bad for being back 1 year.
No, I need my manual transmission, my 2004 Ranger, she is old, and needs to rest. So I want a new one in stick
here in africa we are enjoying the ranger, and it is indeed flagship here. very interesting to see how it is berated at America
Can I drive pickup trucks for everyday commuting? I am only 5 inches...
Yes. The lower the inches the bigger the truck you should get.
Base Ford Ranger Lariat 4x4 supercab is over 30k? I got a 2002 Ford F350 7.3 Powerstroke Lariat 4x4 Crew Cab with used with new tires, and ranch guard with in good condition (paint looks great) and the interior was great with weathertech mats for $14k with 205k miles and it runs solid. Mine is paid off too.
Common thread I see running through all car reviews: 1 describing side profile in detail. (I have eyeballs, I can clearly see the truck. How about showing things not easily visible?) 2 tailgate dampers. If your wrist is that limp, should you really be buying a truck? 3 halogen headlights. If you do a lot of nighttime driving, you appreciate oncoming traffic with halogen lights. The dog is dead, you can stop beating him now.
Who in the hell would pay around $35,000 to $45,000 for a little ass truck, a full size with a v8 is the same price
Well I almost forgot about this Truck
Hope to get a 24, would be my first truck ever. Mostly positive reviews.
Depends on how you drive it and where. You will easily get 24 if on slower 2 lane hwy and drive it properly. I got 30 in a 2019 over 40 miles going to work. However I know I can't count on that every day, depend on wind direction and speed, and how fast traffic is going. I did a 200+ round trip today on interstate 75-80 mph and some in town driving and averaged over 22 with the dash lie-o-meter so it may be closer to 21. Still I've been impressed. Yes my F150 could get good MPG too on occasion but the Ranger just makes it easier to obtain and more consistent plus its much easier to drive and park in the city.
I like the Ford Ranger Raptor that we have here in Australia 🇦🇺. They seem to be selling well here.
If I buy you a booklet of stamps, could you mail me one? 😉😁
The fusion transmission is sleep to but once it kicks in it takes off
I think they wanted to redesign it in a year to get it back on the market and I think they will fix a lot of this stuff in the next year
Agreed wrong place for the keyless . should be on the door handle inbeded.to protect the buttons.
Thinking about buying one Lariat, question - How do I know if I'm getting offered a 2019 or a 2020 model? Based on this review I hope that a 2020 will have some updates?
What is the competitor that has an 8 foot bed???
45k for a pickup 🙄
That's why ford likes the SUV, truck business. They can mark these babies up.
Don’t worry, these guys do $15K markdowns for various sales periods like Ford Truck Month.
That gauge cluster is the exact same gauge cluster I have in my 2015 Explorer (other than the font on the speedometer). Why couldn’t they update it?!
all i want to know is what the song is in the beginning
That is one beautiful truck. Ford and Lincoln is on a roll 🔥
This guy has a lots of expectations 😂
I love this old interior comment it is a truck people easy to clean inside when you have used it for work or play. I here people complain about the tale gate not dampend for $40.00 dollars you can get a kit to install to take care of the problem takes about 15 minutes to install.
