Thread: Ford ranger 2 litre bi turbo

Never less than 3T on the daily and regularly pulls a service trailer of 2.6T, had the PX3 3.2L before it for about 160 thousand ks since new. Original one never gave any dramas, worst part was the seat lost it's support over the years.

Observations of PX2/3 vs PX 4: slightly more bottom end grunt but the auto 6 speed was still a bit laggy in the torque converter. The 2L biturbo with the 10speed is only marginally worse on the standing takeoff with a heavy trailer, but in every other way I'm happy with it. Sips slightly less fuel when not pulling the trailer than the 3.2 did, not that I'm paying.

Company provided vehicle, so not my maintenance costs or overheads. Lots of forestry and off road use... None of my field utes have had a gentle life. Would I buy a trade spec ranger for myself? Yes, but not a high km second hand one!
