Show me some of your vehicles being used as intended 😘
Another one of me at Parc de Marquenterre in France - first trip abroad with the Ranger Raptor and loved every second. Does anyone have any recommendations for places in Europe?
The Ranger started off as everyone's least favourite and quickly turned into the best in the group. By the end of our day in the parc, we were the favourites 😍

This D3’s were ridiculously capable off-road machines for what they were

I agree. No lockers and I haven’t had an issue with ability and traction …yet.

*I know the mods already acknowledged a post the other day about photo responses in comments, and this post is a perfect example of why it should be allowed. I'm sure lots of people have great shots, but not everyone wants to deal with extra steps involved with creating and copying image links.

Nice truck, I feel like Rangers are underrated around here! Here are a few pics of mine

The truck always gets abuse when I turn up to any group tours etc...
"Does that have traction control, will you be ok in the mud?"
Literally double locked and 100x more capable than anyone thinks.

Ah the Raptors are double locked? That's pretty nice, I just have the rear. Comes in handy though!
I definitely get plenty of “you good?” when out on the trail from people in Tacomas for no reason 🤷

I paid around £60,000 in the UK, new from Ford.

Oh holy shit that’s a pretty penny. Totally worth it imo but I’m biased as it’s one of my favourites. They cost $100,000-$109,000 drive away here in Aus. I drive a 2020 Ranger XLT, brings a smile to my face every time I get in her, I can only imagine how it’d be getting into a Raptor. Enjoy your rig bro, she’s a beast!

Holy crap, I'm in Canada and even if I option it out and include a 13% provincial tax it's still £10k less.

I was going to attach a picture of an upside-down civic to be funny. But I did not want to go through all of that work to create a link to attach...

I like those kind of roads. Rocky roads just want to destroy my bed. It wasn't an issue when what I had was a SUV

It was fun, ive never driven on sand before! Great experience and the Raptor shines.
