Had a colorado previously lease was up looked at all reviews on YouTube ranger was The winner most of the time . So I got one .
Very car like suspension to soft to dangerous when loaded and very dangerous when towing 3.5 ton it's like you in a boat. It's like a bodybuilder on steroids ford ranger . In 45 degree heat day it's like the car starts to buckle opening doors making noise. To get car up to good tow stability you have to spend thousands why . I miss my Hercules colorado.

I previously had a 2016 model Ford Ranger Wildtrak with 3.2L 6 speed transmission. Whilst I was very happy with it for the 3 years it did get a few electronics gremlins.
So I traded it in for the 2022 bi turbo 2L with 10 speed auto Wildtrak.

At first I had doubts about the small 4 cylinder but they were quickly dispelled. It out performs the old 3.2L by a country mile...much more responsive engine and so much quieter. The real difference is noticeable when towing. The 2L bie turbo simply out performs the 3.2 in all aspects. Gear ratios perfect.

We have had our mk2 2017 ranger wildtrack now for 6 months and must say for looks grunt leisure and ease of drive I can’t stress enough this is a must! We use it everyday to work an back to kids sports and it never misses a beat. It drives smooth and sweet on the road has all the mod-cons and more to make your daily commute a dream.on weekends we off-road and the fun and excitement it brings is enormous.so if your after a all round versatile stylish truck this ones for you!

I have just purchased the Ford Wildtrac after owning Holden utes, and this is a nice Ute to drive on or off road. I have towed a mini excavator to site and it has a lot of grunt. This would match if not exceed my Holdens performance.

Awesome work and towing ute with heaps of space for the family, luggage/tools. Traveled with 5 adults for a 700k round-trip with no complaints.

Recently towed a 2.2 tonne caravan from Canberra to the Gold Coast (return) and average 15l/100k. Typically averages 10l/100k for city and highway driving combined.

Have had no concerns electrically or mechanically. Never misses a beat.

Same thump from gearbox on takeoff, listen to a usb one time and the next the radio comes on. Seems i have an issue from the steering column. Doesn't load all my phone contacts from an huawei phone. Maybe i need an i phone for this car. Car brakes come on at 150 mts of car turning. Maybe it should drive itself. Hate it. Too much body roll even when loaded. Told it needs Weight. Don't listen to salesmen. Now smart charging is tuned back on when software is updated. Idles terribly and am told to keep bringing the vehicle back. Like i don't need it to work.

Over 120km every day sometimes 300.
Used as mobile welding truck in forestry and around town
Every 10,000km recommended is 15,000 but I carry big loads
I have only done 8,000km
Nissan diff shat it’s self at 80,000km
It has only done its pre delivery inspection and I did not have any defaults

Just reach 2 years owning my wildtrack, have had the same list of issues and continue to get the same excuses from ford. Issues include thump from gearbox on take off, navigation system fault, erratic parking sensors, door misalignment, entertainment system rebooting while driving, poor radio reception and many more minor faults. I've been told many excuses from that just how they all are for the gearbox but we have reported to ford as there is no solution at this time. For all entertainment system issues all I get is we have reset the system and hope for the best, but always expect the worst. As I keep telling the dealer, I wish I bought a Toyota.

Its very comfortable, good visibility, fits four comfortably, safety features are top rate as is the dash technology. Plenty of power and a good ride over rough terrain.
But It’s thirsty, hard to park in small spaces and the wind noise in the cab is a design fault I assume. I have taken it back twice to rectify but with no success. At present I am taping up the drivers door frame to try and find the fault.

I have warnings, car loses power some times when overtaking (A serious issue), starting issues, Collision assist issues etc. Ford said Diagnostics are perfect. My mechanic's (non Ford dealer) Diagnostics light up like a xmas tree. Ford will not repair wont return calls and emails. I think its a major cost to them. Am trading it in, let that dealer deal with it -the ute is crap.

Love it great strong car looks and performs well although a turbo diesel v8 would go great with this awesome package, just about drives itself with all of the gadgets and gizmos
I think if the colour selection went further eg winning blue in wildtrak would be top notch
thanks Ford

I have purchased the 2018 wildtrak and am over the moon. It has so much features and power, tows my boat easily can not fault it absolute pleasure to drive. I drive the Hilux SR5 at work and look forward to getting in the ranger at the end of shift way more power and luxury .

I must have a lemon. Towing with this truck is so disapointing most i've towed is 1 ton in an 8x5 trailer .
My first thought was if this is all the power it has what will it be like with a 3 ton van behind.
People rave about power i havent found that button yet $60000 I Should be in love with it but am very unhappy.
Ford say no code faults so thats it.
Inquired today about putting it on a dyno to get some hp figures.
Owners are in love with these things
Please help whats wrong with mine.
Any thoughts !!!!!!!!

This vehicle us absolute crapp. The worst if its type. It has a variable vane type oil pump that loses its prime and costs you a new motor. Park it on slope for half an hour start it up, oil light comes on and motor instantly trashed. All have this fault and Ford dont want know about it. Worse, change the oil and dont fill sump immediately with new oil after 2 minutes and your motor is siezed. Firds response us "thats the way it is". It should be a warranty claim. What us the point if a 4WD that cannot be parked on a slope. $15000.00 for a new motor. This vehicle should be withdrawn from the market until a conventional oil pump is put in the motor.

A big change up from my ever reliable dmax. Hope to love towing with new Wildtrak. Question whether ford needs a transmission cooler whilst towing van with atm of 3150kg. Noise levels are much lower and the seating is very good especially for a ute. All up so far so good.

Use it as our family vehicle upgraded from a Toyota Kluger and we love it. Great and comfortable to dive even for its size.
Fits the baby car seat in the back perfectly. Front seat can be adjusted by height and also closer or further from the steering wheel which is great as it adds to the confidence in driving a large vehicle

I have a 2016 Wildtrack, the Pre Collision Assist Not Available pops up at random times, this has gone on since new & Ford have just told me this is normal & happens all the time. I have spoken to a few people that own a Wildtrack & it hasn't happened to them? Would be keen to know if this is happening to others?

Paint is very thin, scrathes very easy
rear seatbelt was faulty and needed replacing, annoying alarm noise.
Fuel filter, problem 25000km (limp mode)
now turbo issue at 27000km (limp mode)
see what happens next?
Front seat leather has a crack in the side, only 1 year and 3 mounts old

This is my second Ranger, to date very happy. Comfort is pretty good, having an exceptionally poor back is a fair indication over long trips. 18000ks on the clock, returns 9.6ks per litre, loaded with canopy and around 500kg plus full fuel. Overall I would rate the Ranger 4.5 stars out of 5, to date no issues.
