Is the 2020 Ford Ranger Lariat with Black Appearance PKG the BEST small truck?

- The Ford Ranger is trying to fill a hole in the midsize truck segment. Under the hood is a 2.3L turbocharged inline-4 producing 270HP & mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission. The exterior of this Ranger has the Black Accent Pkg and 4x4 capability. On the inside you will be greeted to a dull leather interior, and all the safety tech you could want. Is the 2020 Ford Ranger Black Appearance Pkg worth the price?

My man Joe rolling out the videos during the pandemic and protesting. Love ya Joe👍🏻
You deserve the best Alex and I want to bring it to you!
Raiti's Rides love the positivity, keep it up. No zonks here!
And with all these videos being pumped out, Joe found someone to give him a fresh cut!💈lol No more pandemic hair 🤣
Raitis rides instead of Raitis riots
I live in Arizona so cooled seats are a must in any vehicle.
I like his reviews because he does it in pretty much one shot. The footage is raw and shows almost all angles. Love these videos
Great review and cool truck! I’m a fan of the midsize trucks, I just bought a 2020 Tacoma. Thanks for all the content even during the lockdown, it’s really appreciated!
Lots of zonks today!!!!!!!!!!! I can't blame you, we're missing a little too much for $45k. Great review like always Joe. Always find the good and bad!
I love this Ranger, Joe! Thank you so much during this tough time.
I love my ranger I just got a 2020 ranger XLT with the sport package for 33K, amazing truck have plan to try to make it look like the ranger raptor that ford has over sea.
You did well! Congrats!
See about getting the engine replaced with a 6 banger you will notice tremendous difference..
It amazes me how quick this little 4 banger is ! It really gets up and goes !
I totally agree with you!
Another vehicle I have been thinking about. I will finish watching this video when I get home. I did own a XLT Ranger when they first came out.
Just purchased the 2019 Lariat Sport with the Greyed out package .... love it
Congrats Ian! I am so happy to hear!
My dad got his last may and he got it way below 40k, this truck turns corners like a sedan and takes off well for a truck. Love everything about it 🙌
I ain't even lying... I saw the notification pop up and knew this was gonna be at least a seven zonk truck and that turned out to be a very low estimate.... the price is a massive zonk. Overall it doesn't look bad, to be honest, but for what you get package-wise, they're asking way too much for this rig. Great review as usual Joe!!Thank you!!
Lol I love the twinkle storage references. Perfect way to judge size lol
Thanks Kenneth! I really appreciate that!
Love the channel, man
Love the mid size truck reviews❤️
Great review Joe on a great truck
Do u know when you’re getting more laptop bags in?
Love the reviews! Can’t wait to see a review of the tremor and maybe one with the ford performance tune! 🤩🤩🤩
Keep it up!
I just traded in my mustang on a cyber orange XLT tremor. Loving it
G'day Joe! watching from Sydney Australia. Thanks for the Aussie viewer shout out. I prefer the American versions of the Ranger compared to the Aussie one's. The trims look better, I love how the tub doesn't have the metal sports bar. Great reviews.
Thanks for watching from down under! You guys are great and I appreciate you wathcing!
Love this channel!!
Love all your reviews and holler at ya from Vegas (desert)
Awesome review Joe well done. I mean to me I still would prefer the colorado/ canyon but, this is a pretty good midsizer
JOE ~ the sliding back window is also handy for emergency farts - rip one, simply slide that back window open, truck airs out & no one is the wiser - best invention EVER. your bro - tony you got my 38th thumbs up
thank you for all your zonks
Thank you for the zonks Joe!!! Maybe Ford will actually listen and give you what you are paying for with this truck :) I have a '93 Ranger and can't imagine spending easily $30k+ for a brand new truck that's essentially a decade old. Needs a complete overhaul asap!
I totally agree with you Kevin!
Tell that to Nissan. 😂
My very first pickup truck! Nice video Joe.
I can see you driving around in this!
@@RaitisRidesThanks Joe for a reply.
Zonk, they're built at my plant. Michigan Assembly in Wayne Michigan. (not Flint) Formerly Michigan Truck where the original Expeditions and Navigators were built. I'm currently working on the Bronco launch.
Great video!!!
We went on a trip to metro Detroit to see the plants, etc and got pics at your plant. Our Broncos and later Focus were built in Wayne. Side note...bucket list item completed getting pics of my Mustang at Ford Headquarters and the Flat Rock plant. Always a Ford guy here.
Just bought one for one of our estimator vehicles and the only things I notice for a Lariat trim that’s missing is a heated steering wheel, soft close tailgate and electric slider window. Complete first world problem but for the price tag but I would have rather them eliminated the lane keep assist and put those options in instead...
bought the same package love this truck
Its a nice looking truck. I like that the appearance isn't too busy. Its rather simple and traditional yet appealing. The price is crazy. Its 5k from 50,000. I would assume sales are mostly made from the XL and XLT trims.
This is so very true!
i just got my lariat 3 days ago! amazing truck and its actually not very overpriced i got mine with almost all options for around 31k a lot of dealrships near me are having a ton of rebates on them because people know they they shouldnt cost 40k+ but instead should be around 30 38 at most if youre considering a ranger lariat id wait a year and get the 2020 next year (im betting theyre going to be worth less than 27k)
also sorry if its hard to understand me english isnt my first language
As always, appreciate the Reese peanut butter cup/Twinkie comments. Keep up the good work. Enjoy your videos
We just bought one and love it!!
Congrats Emily! Thank you for sharing that!
You mention no rear AC/heat, are there vents going to the backseat under the 2 front seats?
Forget the truck. I like the blue car behind you!
Im curious is the 2020 ranger width inside less, same or more then the 2012 escape for body room and is gap between driver seat and back passenger less or same in length?!
Great video thank you!!! I have been saying that about their badges forever I totally agree!!! Make em match :)
I appreciate everything you have already reviewed, have you reviewed a Toyota Land Cruiser ?
I’m not a truck guy, but with the black accent package this is a nice looking Ranger. Would look great in Ford’s “Race Red” paint with that package.
Lots of valid zonks here, for stuff that’s missing on a $45K truck. Stuff you’d expect to have on a $45K car, so it should be here, too. Thanks for the honest review, Joe!
I agree with the zonk on the badge on the front. Black and silver would have been 🔥.
Hey! Love the videos. I would love if you give the price of the model you review as well as the base price. I think it would be very useful.
Thanks for this . Great video . The older Rangers were excellent trucks ! Ford needs to dump the start - stop engine tech .
You missed a zonk for that remote control car antenna.
Nice looking truck Joe
How about filling the big compartment with Stella doro breakfast treats??
I love my new 2020 Ford Ranger Super Cab Lariat FX4. We truly missed having a pickup. Mine is Lightning Blue. I believe I get more practicality from the Super Cab vs the Crew Cab as I get a 6' bed vs a 5' bed. How often do you travel more than an hour with more than 2 people in your vehicle? Even my mother in law doesn't mind riding around in the back. I also have better 'storage' room behind the front seats as the dual 'suicide doors' open much wider and creates a stronger cabin. The only other pickup I bought new was a 1989 Ford Ranger, and the other two F150s I had (1999 & 2010) would not fit into the garage like this ‘midsize’ pickup does. My combined MPG since new is around 23 and I’m impressed with this little engine with so much torque.
I've already added a hard top (Extang Solid Fold 2.0 ~$950), installed a tailgate damper (Dee Zee Tail Gate assist ~$40), and replaced the stock front marker lights with LED (czcams.com/video/AUsLL23gHBI/video.html) to blend in with the color scheme. I purposely got the FX4 package to ensure that it be 'flat towable'. I had Blue Ox tow plates installed (along with acquiring the Blue Ox Ascent Tow Bar and the Blue Ox Patriot 3 Brake system) in order to tow it behind our motor home. It’s only 400# more than the 2017 Ford Focus Titanium hatchback on the dolly. (I miss the Focus' mpg but not the lack of utility.)
Funny Fact: This Ranger has more miles 'Flat Towed' behind our motor home than on its odometer (~3400 miles).
We plan on enjoying many adventurous journeys in our new pickup.
Now to think up a good personal License Plate….hmm.
Have a 19 ranger xlt. Comes with most standard safety features and msrp was $33,000 but was on sale for $25,101. Why I don’t over sweat like most people do when they see the msrp price. Might trade it down the road for either the new bronco whenever it comes or the refresh ranger possibly.
Thanks Nick for sharing that input from your experienece!
Any idea if the Ford Ranger Raptor will come to USA? and if so, when??
Finally more trucks!!!!
I have more coming Miguel!
@@RaitisRides thanks Joe keep up the awesome work!!
RR Ford Performance also has accessories to make the Ranger better. There’s an FPP performance pack which is an ECU and transmission recalibration w/a K&N filter rated at 45 hp/60 ft-lbs $825. There’s the FPP (Borla) catback performance exhaust $1200. Lastly the Fox (tuned by) FPP coil over/level kit $1300. So if one can live w/o the Lariat bells & whistles one can opt for an XL/XLT with the above performance options & drive off the lot with a pretty kickass Ranger. I’m not a salesman, just a car guy and I’m sure Ford approves of this message 🤣🤣🤣
That Fox kit is probably happening to mine, and soon. 🤤
Russell C that’ll be a nice upgrade.
I have this exact truck. Just bought one at a ford dealer with only 8,300 miles on it for $33,500! Used truck prices are finally starting to come down.
I plan to get front tints and smoke out the tailgates.
Get the ford performance tune
Cold air intake and Catback aero exhaust
2.5in leveling kit
Add some almost 33in wheels to the stock rims and add 1.5in or 2in wheel spacers for a wider stance.
Those are the nessecary changes I have to have, more to come after that provably.
BRUH love this video!
Oh yeah!
Can’t wait for the Ranger Raptor Joe!
I love the ranger, I have a 2017 3.2 diesel. It looks good but I think they need to update it as it has been out since 2012 with an update in 2015, and another little update in 2019 with new engines. Very well equipped and capable truck nonetheless.
Thanks for sharing that Joe!
The Ranger looks great with the black appearance package. Ford nailed the look and now with the tune package that adds 45HP, they have performance nailed.The size is also good. They really dropped the ball on features though. Just because it's a smaller truck, many of us still want premium features, memory seat, more adjustability to the seats, ventilated seats, moonroof,nicer leather etc. Another words, a Platinum edition.
yeah the seats need more adjustability, I am having a hard time finding a good position...but it is a truck and im used to muscle cars/sport sedans...
Ford fixed two of your( zonks )on the Ford Ranger. Both Ford badges on grill and tailgate are now “black” with the black appearance package
Serious question: How come none of these trucks have the tailgate dampener? I've watched many videos and even checked them out in person, literally never seen one with a tailgate dampener? They are always mentioned by the reviewer as a "zonk" but yet.... no change. If you go to ford's website, they ARE an option for $50. Why doesn't anyone get them? Is there some weird thing where they all shipped before that was an option or something?
Lots of potential for that truck. Trim wise, it feels like a 3/4 Lariat when compared to its big brother (not referring to size). Don’t skimp on the features Ford!
You are so very right Pierre!
In the back, was it more space then the Toyota Tacoma?
love the Ranger size and styling performance is second to none Idon't mind the price just I don't like the fact no physical controls for the vent selection my only zonk
You were in Tampa right?! my friend works at the Subaru dealership orestes
Hey joe can you do a video on a Toyota Corolla hatchback SE model that is preferably blue flame please and thank you
It would be a very expensive replacement on the tailgate when it's dented.
What’s your favorite medium size truck ? Thanks 🙏
Just bought the 4x4 I didn't need the bigger F150 for ten grand more already had 5 of those great little truck
Hello sir.....I love your videos very much keep going
Thanks my friend! You are so awesome and I appreciate your support!
I was at a Ford car lot the other day and I must say these are amazing.
Thinking about trading in my 80,000 mile 2013 limited explorer to buy the xlt version ranger wondering how different the ride would be? Please comment if anyone has driven both.
this ford is one of the best looking truck joe bye bye my friend keep going like this bravo maestro you are the best big ciao
I am so glad that you like this one!
I have the 2019 ranger XL i just wish for the rangers have 4x4 because that will be useful big time but i love my ranger strong frame it handles like if it was a full size truck the power it has is good fun
I remember when the Ranger was a compact truck. Bring back the Splash! lol
I'm gana zonk that big plastic squared thing on the windshield it obstructs clean and complete driver's view
Thanks for sharing that!
I have one of those . Really a nice truck . Mine is black and lifted with 33in tires Also the dealer installed some of the equipment you get on the Ranger Raptor FX4 which you can’t get YET in the USA.
Thanks for sharing that!
i just bought a 2020 ranger lariat trim for 32k loving it so far!!!!
wow im jealous! Howd you manage to get that price that if I may ask?
Empedance my local dealership was offering good incentives and i didn't option the 4wd because i didn't need it
the sticker for the truck is 38k without taxes. I'm got it for 32 out the door!
No limited slip in the 4X2 still?
still trying to figure out why these and say a Tacoma with a short bed are any better than my Santa Cruz. I'm getting 30 mpg on my daily commute and still have enough bed for my stuff. mind you I don't currently have any towing needs.
I would go Tacoma or Colorado. Fun fact: Ford introduced the Ranger name to their lineup in 1965. Nice job Joe! 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
Actually, it was in 1958 on the Edsel Ranger
66skate I was referring to their truck lineup since this is a truck review. Thanks for the additional info.
Tacoma and Colorado rated behind the Ranger by Consumer Reports. I mean Chevy? Really? I’m sure you’ve extensively driven them all?
@@deanemberley2333 That ZR2 though.
awesome video
If someone made a 3/5 lowering kit for the Ranger, it would be a perfect highway-bomber
Hope the new ranger offers the 2.7 v6 and a redesigned exterior, interior in the 2022
Would've been cool if FORD added the King ranch, platinum and my most personal favorite the Limited to the rangers. If they made a ranger platinum or limited like the F150 I would've been the first one to buy either one.
I’m not a fan of trucks or whatever but I’d actually buy that, it doesn’t looks soo big and it’s the right size for me and is nice
Beautiful truck for somebody who prefers timid-size.
I’d get rid of the fender flares, those are guaranteed to cut down to bare metal at some point and contribute to the fenders rusting out. The badging, grille, wheels etc. you can all rattle can paint to look like that. Spend the extra even for 2k rattle cans lol! All that gloss on the dash is just begging to be scratched
Great review. I am a new subscriber. Please do a review Lincoln Continental 😊
Thanks for joining the Raiti's Rides family!
@@RaitisRides Proud to be part of the family😊
Joe can you do a 2020 Toyota Tacoma SR base?
Joe hope you are having a good day have you seen the new Ferrari Roma it is sick
Needs a maual transmission option
Hey Joe could you review the new Porsche 718 Cayman GTS and 718 Boxster GTS. I hear they now come with a 4.0L Flat Six cylinder. Thanks..
I need to get those together!
You should review an f150 XLT with the power stroke
I love this truck but the no sunroof thing is a zonk for me too
I know how you feel!
I think the door is wide open in this segment. Nissan has a great chance to impress if their redesign is good. The Ram Dakota is coming too!!
My favorite truck coz it's affordable (sort of) with my favorite package. I wonder if there'll be a ranger raptor. Thanks Joe. Peace.
I heard there will be however it may not be available in the US
Not this generation. But maybe the next one. The new Bronco, based off the Ranger, is rumored to have on though. 👍🏻
@@rustlesee Bronco and Ranger are completely different trucks, except the wheels... they're round on both of them. I worked on the Ranger launch, now I'm working on the bronco launch.
I used to love the Ranger from previous generations when it really was a compact truck, you really got the best of both worlds (minus the fuel efficiency maybe). I find this recent iteration very bland across all trim levels and this one in particular is very overpriced for what you get, in my opinion. Also, you're killing me with those junk food references, keep up the good work, brother.
Are they ever going to bring the ranger raptor to the states?!
Greetings from the Philippines
do a lincoln mkz review! it’s the last year of production!
I will try to track one down!
Very nice truck; I prefer the Sport Appearance.
Awesome review Joe!! But I vant justify 45k for a Ranger thats the price I can get for a full size f150! It.lloks awesome though!
Thanks for letting me share this one with you!
Full size yes but maybe a xl trim for 45 g. You can get a xlt ranger for around 32 to 34. This truck had most of the goodies you can get. A loaded tacoma is 46 grand and is old and ugly and half the tech. I owned one sorry ass tundra and i'll never own another toyota product. There quality is like big foot a myth .
We bought 2020 Ford Ranger Super Cab Lariat 4x4 w/ chrome package for 42,000 with my Ford A plan discount.
I'd want an XLT but with the skid plate package. Just can't afford it nor have any credit lol
If they made a Ford Ranger King Ranch, Platinum, or Luxury Limited I'd definitely be the first to buy one of them. Anything to compete with the GMC Canyon Denali. And a Colorado high country would be dope too. I have a 2004 Nissan Pathfinder Platinum edition and if anything midsized I'd definitely would want ford to add their 3 luxury trims too the Ford ranger and then put like a 3.0L Ecoboost V6 in it. Or make a 3.0 Ecoboost V6 in that matter explorer, expedition, and f150s can keep the 3.5L.
