The 2019 Ford Ranger Is the Return of the Ranger to the USA
GO READ MY COLUMN! http://autotradr.co/Oversteer
The 2019 Ford Ranger is the revival of the Ford Ranger name. The Ford Ranger is back in the United States, and today I’m reviewing the 2019 Ford Ranger to show you if the new Ranger is good enough to square off against close pickup truck rivals.

You have to get in
da old fashion way
Doug seriously needs some PT….or maybe lay off those 7 layer burritos. His legs are crazy long, He could have just stepped up there, no?
+Nicholas Dobos I was gonna say lol. I love Doug, but that is next level clumsy.
WTH please tell me that was the real engine sound… I want one! 4 door 4×4 plz!
MAYNARD -1 ford pipes in V8 noises thru the speaker in the new ranger ? doesn’t actually sound like that outside the cabin
If u want a 4 door get a f150 raptor
There’s a ranger raptor in Australia

Yeah. America is too shit for it haha. Don’t think they have much of a market for a Ute, they barely get diesel variants. And I don’t think this petrol 4 banger will last very long before a rebuild.
+Mr Smith Diesel has never been huge here. Too many poor implementations of diesel vehicles in the past and the VW scandal didn’t help. As for a baby-Raptor, same money as a used regular Raptor? No way. Also, we’re too fat to fit in that thing anyway. ;P
I thought Doug was just truing to crack a joke when he said “it only took 6 tries” LOL!
That is not a small truck…That segment of truck didn’t die, it is just that the Tacoma destroyed the competition.
DarthTsarkon it’s small compared to a real truck
It’s small ……
Doesn’t require machinery it aint a truck it’s a ute.
Bigger that a 99 f150 what happened to small trucks they brought the name back nothing else.
Also the Chevy Colorado ZR2 is a mid-sized offroad truck. Its like they have a whole new market: The ZR2, the TRD Pro, the Nissan Frontier Midnight and the missing Ranger Raptor. Also the F-150 Raptor, Ram Rebel, Tundra TRD Pro, Titan XD and Chevy Silverado Z71 (I guess?) are in a class.
the_ultimate_ car_guy Silverado trailboss ?
My fat self couldn’t fit in the back seat unless I use butter or crisco… ?
In Australia, the dual cab versions are cheaper than extended cabs anyway.
So just get in the trunk bed you whale
Lose weight then
I think it the butter was meant as bait. Throw a stick back there and he’ll find a way in. +tommy d u b b s
Theres already a Ford Ranger Raptor Doug but its not for the US spec model its for the Asian spec search it in google.
+Capsyzable It’s a retarded thing,2.0 Diesel engine? They put Raptor name only to sell it.Funny thing is that the Ranger in this video (2.3 ecoboost) is faster than the “Raptor”
Here in Australia we get the ranger raptor too, however i dont know how well its selling though
I know it’s a business, but it’s an American company, have some balls to release things in your own country.
+Ian Dunn since when are trucks meant to be fast….diesel totally destroys gas in same sizes . perhaps understand wat a truck is meant for.
Hint…it’s not speed unless you want to fall in the low usa iq group floating around on videos like this.
Rain Juice actually so true
I just can’t call this a small or midsize truck, but that’s an indictment of the US auto market more than anything. I have a friend with a late 80s Ranger that I covet to a crazy degree because it’s what this should be: a genuinely compact, and useful, truck model. There’s no reason you should be busting your ass trying to get into the bed of a small truck (or really any light duty model).
Capacity wise, it’s the same as a Toyota Hilux, Colorado and VW Amarok. That’s why it’s in the same class. The Ranger does feel larger and more cumbersome to drive from my experience in them, though.
I’m guessing that blind spot monitor is printed on the tail lights so you don’t cover it with a brush guard.
its nice to know where it is when there is ice and snow on your vehicle. it bitches a lot at you about not working when its covered up on Toyotas
It’s the blind spot monitoring for the trailer
For that price I’ll stick with my Tacoma trd
I noticed that you can see that same blind spot logo on the 2018 Raptor, and you can see this in Forza Horizon 3 and 4.
For mocking stuff you didn’t totally understand I’m giving you a score of zero sorry Doug
On Ford’s website the Ranger starts in the mid twenties. After dealer add-ons, high document fees etc. we’re approaching 30 grand. Maybe I’m living in the past but a basic Ranger for $30,000 doesn’t seem right.
in the mid 90s, you could get an XLT, extended cab with leather seats and 4.0 V6 for $25,000. an FX4 level II was about the same price.
+chief tp I bought a new 1993 model when they came out which was the top of the line extra cab 2wd and I didn’t pay anywhere near that amount.
+Tsuki san not mid 90s. mid 2000s. I looked at one in ’04 when I bought my last new vehicle. I ended up getting another XL with vinyl seats and 4 cylinder.
+chief tp Well, you did say mid 90s in your first comment.
+Tsuki san that was a typo. my bad. oopsies???
Used up 35% of the mirrors lifespan in this video.
?????????
I thought “Wow Doug, we’ve all been there and now I know that’s why the mirrors always break.”
4:14… Don’t worry Doug, we all know you sing that in the shower.?
Australia and New Zealand get a 3.2 turbo I5 for the Ranger
I mean, the diesel part is important also…
Fred Pellett Five cylinder?
And a raptor version…
That’s cause nz and oz rule ✊?
It’s a straight 5 cylinder??
I have always liked small pick up trucks. I would love to get an old Toyota Tacoma as a beat it up and go get stuff for the yard kind of vehicle. Good review, as always Doug.
11:00 I know it’s a joke but toasters use way more than 150W allowed 😀 You could easily damage your car doing that 😀
He’s made that joke before. Toasters draw 800 to 1400 watts…so yeah, it’s a senseless joke.
You wouldn’t do any damage, you’d just pop a fuse.
+William Stewart…..and be very disappointed that after taking all the time to get out your toaster and inserting said toast having just bread in the end. And a popped fuse.
That’s your nitpick? Did you not notice the busted-ass pushed-in USB port next to the outlet??… Quality!
Hey random person scrolling down the comments..
Happy New Year, and all the best in 2019 🙂
U too as well.
Can i get some of that bro?
you too. ilu.
Thanks bud
Don’t tell me what to do
The 2011 Ranger looks like it could be a 2003
That’s because it literally could be – that generation of Ranger spanned from 1998 to 2012.
themaritimegirl no the 98 and 99 were different then 2000-2005 were different
to just see a part of the truck’s front, i had to wait till 20:01
how can the front of a vehicle be of such less importance????
You could of just Google Search an image of the front of this truck instead of waiting, if thats all you cared about
