Cool congratulations you finally got it lol
I have have mine for 2 weeks now and I'm blown away
Congrats Dave ( And Kelly ) .. I too just took ownership of a 2024 Ranger XLT FX4 Model. Rides like a Dream. Im loving it... Looking very forward to your guys thoughts and impresstions after a few months with the Raptor.
Right on!
Congrats Dave!!!!
Thanks!
Bad ass truck!!
Toyota is releasing prices of their hybrids tomorrow actually! Let’s all get ready to be let down.
Seriously insane how even how a trd offroad can almost reach 59k with every bell and whistle. And this the juicy one ... no rear vents 🎉
Beautiful truck Dave!
Yes it is old school full sized. You can even fit a sheet pf plywood between the wheel wells now. Your Dad's S-15/Sonoma is from an era where work was the focus. The fact that you can't get a regular cab or even extended cab from Ford or GM in their midsized trucks says so much. We need some basic work mini trucks like that Sonoma again.
I'm looking forward to all the future videos on it.
Looks awesome!!! Congratulations
Beautiful truck, good luck with it.
Love the green! Love all safety features now remember I’m number 2 help me get it!congrats
About time yall got it
I was giddy about seeing this thing at SuperCel. First one I’ve seen in person. Thanks for letting me take a good look at the interior!
No problem 👍
Best truck ever! Love mine, soooo pleased!
Great to hear!
Congrats! Brother has had his for a coupke of weeks now loves it!
It could be truck of the year
I'm thinking of finally upgrading from my 2006 Ranger Sport so I found the shot next to the 2002 Sonoma pretty interesting. There's a Raptor at a dealer near me in the same color, minus the graphics but with the bedliner. Thanks for the video.
Looks and sounds great. A bit out of my price range as is the Explorer ST that I have wanted for years!! Not much of an off-roader but love a vehicle that handles great and has good performance. Will you be using it as a pickup or as an off-roader?
Congrats. Dave and Kelly. I have egarly awaiting this video. Last I heard mine is at Junction Point Blue Island Il. looking for the Union Pacific train to Oregon. I am so pumped now that I have seen how gitty you are. SOON!😂
You are so close
Congrats!! Love that color too. Only thing I wish they would add is cooling seats.
💯 but it’s a wicked truck
I finally saw a couple Rangers in person. Honestly, I love the new look and didn't think I would. I'm glad to adopted the boxy Maverick look. The had 3 rangers next to a few Mavericks and it was hard to tell which was which at first glance. Love it🤙
Ford has a look, that’s for sure
@@AllTerrainNation they sure do. A few more accessories and I think they'd have a much bigger piece of the market. Gm and chevy have insane accessories that Ford is missing out on.
Gratz Dave, on taking possession of Kelly’s new vehicle!
Lol
Awesome! Any idea why the graphics package doesn't extend to the front bumper, like in the Australian version?
No idea sadly..
Super 😎 truck love the green color
Thanks 👍
A battery bank for camping would be 👌🔥 with that bed power port
The rear steps to get up and into the tray isn't there on the Raptor due to the exhaust pipes - all other ranger models the exhaust pipes don't exit out the back, they dump down onto the ground by the spare wheel
Looks good congratulations. It is close in price to my Bronco Badlands but has more power. Not a rock crawler as you know, but will definitely get down the trails. Have fun.
I think for 75% this would do most trails but is it going to be as capable as a Bronco Badlands Sasquatch? Nope but this will be huge in the Overlanding community
Great video and love the truck...I'm a Raptor fan all day long..Do you wish Ford made the front running lights amber?
I’m torn on the amber lights. I feel like those and the DOT lights were a miss by the brand but I do like the normal day time running lights
AWESOME! i just bought a hot pepper red one in Tennessee. i planned on ordering but found one on a lot that was only 2k over MSRP and i was ok to do that. like that shelter green but i still love my bronco badlands eruption green more. lol
Congrats! 2k wouldn’t be a deal breaker
Can you fit a 4*8 drywall?
Enjoy the ride mate
💯
The size is right as the full size trucks are to big now, really cool.
I was on list for 1st trd pro and dropped my deposit and wanted the ranger raptor as my last vehicle. Hopefully I can find one at some point without Mark up for I won't pay Mark up
Nice review Dave.
Can't wait for mine to finally show up, mine been setting at the rail yard for over week now waiting for its ride to the dealer.
I would like to know more about your thoughts on how it compares to your Bronco.
My Bronco is a 2dr high trim/option spec Badlands SAS.
Already have my start stop eliminator in hand along with +30 offset Bronco wheels with new 34" tires ready to go on my RR soon as I get it home.
What start stop eliminator are you using? Mine is driving me nuts I need to get rid of it.
@@tylerdurden9391 I hear you, I hate that start stop crap.
The one in my Bronco is called the same thing start stop eliminator, bought it off Amazon works perfect. Could not find one in the US but on the Ranger Raptor forum a member on there has a truck accessory business in Australia, I bought the one for my Ranger Raptor from Australia. My RR is not here yet, any day I am told it should arrive at the dealer, I am just ready for it when it gets here to turn that crap off right away. lol
Sounds like you have a great plan for your RR! If I can get the keys away from Kelly I’ll line them up
@@AllTerrainNation Thanks Dave.
I suppose I will know firsthand eventually whenever mine comes in, but while I am waiting, I am curious how the seat comfort, the suspension comfort, the maneuverability all compares between the two. I have no doubt the 3.0L Ranger Raptor will be faster than my 2.7L Bronco.
I would think with power seats, and fox live valve long travel suspension, that the comfort advantages would be well in the RR's favor over the Bronco Badlands in my case. Just curious what you and Kelly think about how yours compare.
I love it! I ordered one in March from a small dealer but I am worried that they might not get an allocation before the end of the year. I am first on my dealers list now. What do you think the likely hood is that mine will get scheduled this year?
Hope you get yours!! My dealer ordered mine last August and supposed to be here next month
I have a feeling you will get a VIN soon.. Ford pushed 800 raptor bins last month
It's funny you mentioned the size vs the older trucks. I just yesterday watched a video about this very issue. There's a channel called All Cars with Jon and he made a video about it on Jul 3, 2023 called "Why We Can't Have Small Trucks Anymore - Blame the EPA" that helps explain it. I had my suspicions that the govt had their hand it in!
Can I ask why they can't like what's the reasin
@@Trucksntravel Basically the EPA has different minimum MPG requirements based on the size of the vehicle. Bigger vehicles have lower MPG requirements so carmakers are loathe to make smaller trucks because they would have meet the stricter MPG requirement (which costs them money,) or they would have to pay a penalty (costs them money), and the prices for smaller trucks means much smaller profit margins for all the work they would have to do to bring them to market.
I wish I could get one but no luck on MSRP. Gorgeous truck. Nice pick bro!
If you are willing to travel there are dealers selling at MSRP
@@AllTerrainNationI’d love to know where at I could get one. I know you’re out of Tennessee but I’d love to buy one at msrp
This trucks 🇺🇸 kicks the absolute 💩 out of Toyota 🇯🇵 & I like it! 👍🏻
Ford & Chevy 💪🏻
The dealership mark ups are going crazy for this thing. I want one but the dealerships near me was asking 10k, 25k, and even a 35k mark up!!! I was able to secure a 7k mark up but thats still outrageous to me
I decided to get a 2024 Ranger because I wanted to downsize from a full size truck. Seems like the new Ranger is about the size of full size trucks about 30 years ago. I think current full size trucks are too big and too high off the ground any more. Looking forward to getting my new Ranger.
My 2024 Ranger Raptor was just built 4/20... just a waiting game for delivery now. Why did you go to Detroit? I'm in bowling green above you and i got mine in Springfield Tennessee...
I have a good working relationship with a dealer in Detroit
The DC port in the back, is it full time on like a jeep or does it require ACC to be on? I like keeping my iceco in the back
I’ll check it out.. We haven’t had a chance to push every button just yet
Wish they had the amber DRLs and 35’s, but love everything else. That 3.0L has a bunch of headroom. Talking 550 WHP kinda headroom.
The 3.0 does have room for more
In Australia there is one with 620whp on 35” tyres
I’m looking forward to the 2.7 fx4 version.
Mine just came in but my trade in is in the shop. Really want to take it to jeep week but it doesn't look that way this year
I read about your issue on FB.. That’s stinks but you are going to like the truck once you take it
@All Terrain Nation: Congrats Dave, looks amazing! You have waited for so long. Enjoy it man.
I need your advice. Local dealers are asking $10k-$15k markup which I refuse to pay. I did find a dealer 5 hours away with a RR in Hot Pepper Red with the graphics. No bed liner or beadlock wheels. MSRP $58,310. They will sell at sticker. I don't know what to do... what say you?
Buy it. If you don't like it sell and make a few grand while supply is low.
Sounds like a great deal! The hot pepper has grown on me
Why are the rims on the tires different from what Ford showed in the 2024 showroom?
17s?
I am number 2 and just signed papers on my yes my raptor ranger in shelter green!!!!!
😱
@@AllTerrainNation any aftermarket mod to put a grab bar on drivers side? Do you have any companies with mods for Ranger raptor. I’m thinking about some topper
@@AllTerrainNation tell you wife!
@@stephenr115there are a few aftermarket companies out there and some from the AU that will ship this way
The measurements of the ranger is almost identical to a f150 from the 2000s. They are basically the size of what full size trucks used to be. I'm planning on getting one sometime soon and am torn between the shelter green and azure gray. I feel the hot red accents in the interior would tie well with the gray.....but so many vehicles are gray.....but it's a beautiful tri coat gray.....but the green looks amazing......but.....you get my dilemma :) thanks for the video!
Be sure to let us know which color you pick!
How’d you make your air control screen black instead of white?
In the settings you put it in night mode
@@AllTerrainNation thanks! I’ll do that when I get back in my truck!
Picked up the truck in Detroit, my question is, do you still have to pay for delivery fees?
Yes
Please explain bead lock wheels I have those on my new Shelter Green Ranger Raptor. I as you might remember am number 2! Ha! I am so excited
Bead locks allow the outside bead of the tire to sit on the outside of the wheel and the lock with all of the bolts and clamp . This allows the tires to deflate to very low pressures for extra grip.
@@AllTerrainNation thanks. Just unfamiliar with them. My spec totaled 59,900. I think it has everything. Please do an episode on all options. I have the sprayed in liner. Is there a company that sells aftermarket for ranger raptor for lights, hard topper and to use all those switches? Thanks for responding! I’m excited to take delivery. Damn hard to find.
take it to the mud!!! I want to see the Raptor be FREE.....
Can you compare this against the new taco
Do you mind me asking if you paid a dealer markup of $10,000?
We paid MSRP with Brighton Ford in Michigan
I like that it’s has a true 33” and not Toyotas rounded up 32”s.
I would so trade in my Bronco for this.
The only thing I don't like is no manual buttons as I don't want to depend on a radio to work for me to drive off road!
💯
It's a Corbin sighting !! Lol
They are rare but happen
The New Ranger Raptor looks to be about the same size as the initial (OLD) F-150 Raptor.... :)
Maybe an Aftermarket Applique for the tailgate to COVER the RANGER - and put RAPTOR there instead??
Is it a mustang GT for third world country roads? I’m in Puerto Rico and I’m thinking it is.
Kind of
Nice truck. Way better than the Tacoma. Does need rear a/c vents.
Yes it does
I test drove one yesterday and honestly its not much quicker then the GMC Canyon or Chevy ZR2. as well as the canyon has a much nicer interior. The Ranger just has a better suspension in my opinion but its not as good or as quick as i was hoping for.
It maybe quicker after break in. Ford says 1000 miles before going all out.
I would dump the stickers.
Take it through a Starbucks drive thru 😋
lol.. Sorry I’m a Monster guy
Toyota definitely overreached this model cycle. Curious how much marketshare they're going to lose. Can't wait for my RR to be delivered.
Let me put this truck next to a baby bird, doesn’t it look massive, it’s so much bigger than a baby bird.
Jump it.
The elephant in the room is always that all the damned Ford Ranger, Nissan Navara, Toyota Hailux, Ww Amark and all the other small Pickups are that their cabins are not big enough and therefore the cars are WAY too expensive because they are simply useless as family cars. The cars cost the same as SUV cars and are also more expensive than SUV cars, but you only get half a car compared to the SUVs. There is simply too little legroom in the back seat and the cars are also too narrow. A man of 183cm cannot sit comfortably in the back seat of any of those pickups because there is NO LEG ROOM. So what the hell are we paying for when we can't have our 17 year old sons and daughters sitting in the back seat. THE CABINS ARE TOO SMALL AND WE GET TOO LITTLE CARS FOR THE PRICES OF THE CARS. Why isn't anyone talking about the damn problem with the small cabins. No legroom equals the fact that the cars cannot be used for families with children aged 15. Too little legroom.
I think you would like more leg room.. If you look how small the old Nissan Hardbodys or S10s were the trucks have gotten larger. Sit in the back of the 1st gen s10 blazer and see if there is any room. I do agree that the price doesn't always reflect the usability but the new Ranger has pretty good space for 4 adults.
@@AllTerrainNation I have tried all the brands and models I mentioned and none of them have good legroom in the back seats. NONE. Neither I, my children nor any grown man I know can sit in those back seats. There is simply no room for people over the age of 15 in those back seats. So I don't know how tall you are and how tall the people you say can sit in the back seats are. Paying for a full cabin and only being able to use the front seats for adults and teenagers is robbing customers of an overcharge. And I don't understand that all those who make videos of the cars don't talk more about the lack of legroom in the cars and really put a lot of emphasis on the space problem. My sons cannot sit in the back seats at all on any of the pickups I have mentioned and my youngest is 14 years old. In my f 150 it is perfect, but we cannot use the Rangers and the other pickups in the same class as the Ford Ranger. Therefore, it is disappointing to see video after video where no one really points out the lack of legroom in Ford Rangers, Toyota, Nissan Navara, etc. The cars are simply useless as family cars. As a family, you have to go up a number to, for example, the Ford F 150 in order for the car to function as a family car or as a crew car.
Bring it to MOAB!
Would love to
I wanna buy one but the mark up scared me most! Any dealer doing mark up is a disgrace to the soon to be buyers! 👹🤡👺F mark up dealers!!
Ford needs to cancel them. Dealer model is outdated anyway. They should just go away
