I've just not been impressed with Nissan quality overall. And the Raptor will do what I need it to do while also having lots of fun. But I get that it isn't for everyone, as it's definitely not a work truck.
I put 150k miles on a 2010 xterra and I have no complaints about nissan quality. I replaced one fan clutch, a couple batteries i cooked with the winch, axle seals (dana44 common issue), and one front hub bearing (hurricane harvey) in that time aside from oil changes and regular maintenance.

I understand they got a bad reputation for trying to ignore the issue with radiator trans coolers killing transmissions on the earlier ones, but every oem tries to ignore issues until they can't.


I am curious if ford will offer something like the sasquatch package on the non-raptor rangers, or if the front locker will be exclusive to the raptor. It looks like there is one more blank in the buttons for the hill descent and rear locker. for now, the only other midsize truck available with a front locker is the colorado zr2.

Ford had me out to see it in person. Here are my thoughts with a lot of notes on how it compares to the Bronco.

Do you have a written review available?

$56k is insane, but a steal compared to BRapter. BRapter pricing is just ludicrous
Yeah the Bronco Raptor is a complete ripoff. They had the pricing right on the regular Broncos when they first announced them, but they got stupid and greedy.

At the expense of a sunroof or removable top. So… 🤷🏻‍♂️
Ford should walk and chew gum at the same time. This isn't the lunar lander, give me both...

I've had sunglass holders on nearly a dozen vehicles, and I've never had a use for them. Coincidentally literally any place that sells anything automotive related has sunglass holders starting at free and working all the way up to like maybe $5

Does anyone know if this ranger shares any parts with the bronco?

I am going to be in the minority and I will take the heat.... the Raptor should not be STARTING at "just" $56k. That should be the ceiling for a medium truck.


That said, it does look to be one very fine vehicle.
