  1. 2019 Ranger MPG vs Tacoma, Colorado, Jeep pickup

    Even driving my 98" 2.5L Ranger as hard as I could, I would still get 25mpg. That engine had about half the power/torque of the new Ranger 2.3L EB and was a single cab truck which makes a difference. The new engine is about 2x as powerful and isn't quite 2x the size. Torque is also about...

    I got the email. Drop me a message with your email address and I will forward it over to you.
  3. Midsize Truck Comparison: Ranger vs Tacoma, Gladiator, Colorado, Canyon, Frontier

    We should expect them to be similar. They stated that they used the T6 Ranger as the basis and reworked all the body panels. I used some T6 numbers as placeholders until we have actual reported numbers.
  4. Bronco hints might show Ranger Raptor 2.7L engine option.

    I would be super interested in getting the RR vs the Ranger if it had the 2.7L in it! There are lots of tuning options out there for that engine that would make it a beast in that truck!
  5. Midsize Truck Comparison: Ranger vs Tacoma, Gladiator, Colorado, Canyon, Frontier

    The cells marked with light yellow and the text greyed out is because the information isn't officially know. those are approximate placeholder values and will be updated when there is more information.
  6. Bronco hints might show Ranger Raptor 2.7L engine option.

    https://jalopnik.com/the-2020-ford-bronco-could-get-a-7-speed-manual-transmi-1829563048 Sources say that a 7 speed manual is in the works and is most likely going to be paired with a 2.7L EB. If this is true, and since the Ranger and Bronco are sharing a platform, this gives hope that the RR...
  7. Midsize Truck Comparison: Ranger vs Tacoma, Gladiator, Colorado, Canyon, Frontier

    I am aware. I used the best numbers for each truck in the towing and payload section. I will update those as soon as I can collect all the information for the specific vehicle configs.
  8. Midsize Truck Comparison: Ranger vs Tacoma, Gladiator, Colorado, Canyon, Frontier

    4 door for all trucks. Each manufacturer has different nomenclature. I am using best rates for the newly added towing/payload figures. I will fine tune them for the specific vehicle configs.
  9. Midsize Truck Comparison: Ranger vs Tacoma, Gladiator, Colorado, Canyon, Frontier

    Figured I would post this so I can just update it as more information rolls out. If there is incorrect information please let me know. I would be happy to explain anything you think is dubious. Ranger highlighted stats are guessed and are not known at this time. **Last Update: 10-18-18
  10. 2019 Ranger 2.3L EcoBoost engine?

    HP is a little lower than I was hoping for but the torque didn't disappoint. I am wonder how much fuel economy played into the final numbers. Still waiting on that stat.
  11. UPDATED: 2019 Ranger gets 270 HP/310 LB-FT, class leading towing and payload rating!

    I am updating my spreadsheet. I have also been adding in more data points so I am collecting that data.
  12. Raptor Global Director Interviewed

    The Truck Show Podcast recently interviewed Hermann Salenbauch, the Global Director for Ford Performance Vehicles. The talk about the original Raptor move through the history of Raptor and then discuss how and why the Ranger Raptor fits into their vehicle lineup. The direct question about if the...
  13. Official: Euro-Spec 2019 Ford Ranger Raptor Specs Released!

    An F-150 tuned 2.L EB puts out 325HP and 400 lb-ft of torque. At those numbers, at the expected weight of the RR, it would be comparable to the F-150 Raptor. Here is the rub. The 2.7L is tunable right now. Why drop and engine into a truck that could immediately be tuned in such a way as to...

    Looks like Ford might be starting to push incentives for the Ranger. EDIT: Fine Print - *Preorder by 1/2/19 and then take new retail delivery from an authorized Ford Dealer's stock by 7/2/19. See dealer for details. **$750 on the all-new 2019 Ford Ranger XLT or LARIAT only. May not combine...
  15. $750 incentive announced for 2019 Ford Ranger (XLT or LARIAT) order

    Looks like Ford might be starting to push incentives for the Ranger. EDIT: Fine Print - *Preorder by 1/2/19 and then take new retail delivery from an authorized Ford Dealer's stock by 7/2/19. See dealer for details. **$750 on the all-new 2019 Ford Ranger XLT or LARIAT only. May not combine...
  16. Official: Euro-Spec 2019 Ford Ranger Raptor Specs Released!

    I hope I am wrong. Unfortunately I have run the numbers and it just doesn't work in Ford's favor any other way based on existing engines. That said, have you see the torque/power curves on the 2.3L in the Ford Focus RS? The torque starts to drop off at 5500 rpm but the hp is there to take it up...
  17. Official: Euro-Spec 2019 Ford Ranger Raptor Specs Released!

    I don't know if Ford tightened up the body panels on the World spec Ranger Raptor (RR) like they have the new US spec Ranger. If they didn't, I would expect them to do that so it holds a little more true with the US Ranger. I expect a high output 2.3L Ecoboost in the RR which would keep power to...
  18. 2019 Ranger MPG vs Tacoma, Colorado, Jeep pickup

    @Saddle Tramp Posted in another thread that the Mexican version of the XLT 4x4 is converting to about 26MPG. While this would be class leading in the US, I would still expect the US spec Ranger to do a bit better. Remember that it has all new DANA solid rear and Dana IFS (Independent Front...
  19. 2019 Ranger 2.3L EcoBoost engine?

    If they released the engine at 310hp and 350 lb-ft and if the weight comes in somewhere around 4,400 lbs (it should based on segment numbers) then the Ranger would have approximately the same power to weight ratios as the 2.7L in the F-150. If you compare similar builds and trims the Ranger...
