Anyone know much about these? looking at getting one as a compnay car for towing our trailers and general lifting and shifting. Seem to be fairly good write ups for a pickup with 5 star safetly and best interior over the competition. Just wondering if anyone has test drove one yet?

Cheers

Yeah my boss has one, great for everything! Can't beat a defender tho!

 

They do look the part. Is it a Mazda like the last two.

 

Just reluctenly sold my 55plate one,great for everything but the drag strip

 

They weren't built to go up the drag strip....

 

 

It's Mitsubishi now I think

 

We have sold some of those. Wildtrack 5syl 200bhp is a nice car to drive

 

Japan design, mazda, around here they are very popular, I worked shortly at ford factory during the regional development and It looked very strong, love the base version with steel rims and black fenders

 

Thanks guys, going to test drive one. The new one isnt mazda based as its a ford only truck from the reviews and info i've been reading. Only place not to get it is America as they want to push the F-150, which my cousin is pissed about as he wants a Ranger. no doubt they will bring it in. Will up date if i get one.

 

I could be wrong but I thought the ranger is an f150 with a different face

 

Not the new one, looks like its been developed as a stand alone vehicle this time compared to the old one that shared the Mazda underpinnings etc. The reviews seem to be favourable to it driving like a car and being a better ride then its competition but say its still unrefind and slow but you got to expect that form a commerical vehicle.

 

i have a 06 and yeah its slow pulling away etc but it will plod along at 90 even a ton if you want it to no problems,been off the clock couple times as well lol but not recomended for the faint hearted as it takes a miles to brake
