2012 Ford Ranger

[kerv007]

anong dealer sir?

Alabang sir

[kerv007]

By the way, Ive only owned this car 3 days pa lang, but here are the pros and cons.

Pro:

-Big car (also a con, will explain later)
-inside the car, you dont feel like you're in a pickup , rather you feel like you're in a big SUV, ample space inside. Maluwag sa likod. Since umuulan at wala pang cover sa likod, nagkasya ako, my wife, yaya and 2 preschoolers tapos yung mga gamit sa back seat rin..Maluwag pa rin

-Audio system (not the speaker, speaker is mid range lang)

- Dito ako natuwa, once you paired your iphone to the radio system, lo and behold!!
- You can make calls hands free using the car speaker.
- Obviously you can play music through your phone, pero ang ok dito you dont have to do anything , once you step inside it will automatically play the last song you played when you step out right at the last second w/o touching anything.. Parang CD lang na linagay mo tapos pagpinatay mo makina eh hihinto dun sa last second ng song tapos pag on mo play from there.. Ganun din eto, pero through your iphone. Kahit nasa bulsa yung phone mo basta pagtapak mo sa loob play agad

-Voice activate

-Call, answer calls, play music through voice command. madali lang.

-Aesthetic - need i say more

-Autowiper - As soon as droplets of rain hits it, mag o-on yung wiper , pagmalakas yung ulan magaadjust yung speed according sa lakas ng ulan.

-Hindi matagtag

-Good fuel consumption so far, since bago lang. I did already 130Km, 100% citi driving including 3 hour gapang-stuck traffic. Average so far at 10.5 L/ 100Km

-Stepboard and bed liner included on the price

-Decent turning radius, kahit malaki nakaka U-turn naman ako ng maayos. Tested in Makati Med parking

-Lots of compartments, for laptops, shades, coins, secret compartment under passenger seats etc..

Cons:

Eto cons naman...

-Cant put back sensor...for now..

- akala ko ok na, i paid ford to install the back sensor , the day of the release sabi nila di daw kaya kasi chrome yung paglalagyan , may risk daw ma crack. So nag pa refund na lang ako. With car this big, I think back sensor is a must

-Since its a big car

- hirap magpark , lalo na kung narrow ang parking.

-They have a diff way of locking the car, may button to press to lock the car pero from the outside lang. Kung from the inside, you can still open the doors kahit lock., for me with kids, naka child lock na lang both doors at the back for safety reason.

-No heater on the AC, either outside air temp or cold lang.


Not sure if its cons or pro, pero mataas to, buti na lang kasama yung stepboard , kung medyo maliit-liit ka ang hirap umakyat.

-Honestly, so far , hard to think of other cons

I hope this helps

Congrats on your new ride. Galing pre. pro ang mataas pre. kakailanganin mo yan pag baha. I think the best pros ang nabangit mo is hindi matagtag.

Ive been driving pickup trucks for the past 16 years. yung matagtag ang lagi reklamo ng mga sumasakay sa pick up.

Got my ranger last thursday, I was #3 on the list , I reserved last nov 2011. I paid cash, and never had issues regarding D.I., in house or anything like that. The SA kept her word and very accomodating with lots of updates. She's great, I recommend to get Ford vehicles from her

Sir pls. PM or text me the CP no. nya. Saan dealer po kaya naglabas ng unit?
Here's my no/ 09289481281.
Thanks

[Tj_abs]

The AT of the Ranger uses a traditional torque converter, it does not use the dual-clutch Powershift system.

Thank you for the information bossing

[ratchet23]

Bossing have question? Ang transmission ba ng ranger same as fiesta and focus? I have bad experience with my fiesta especially ung transmission. Delay shifting and high rpm in low gears. From 1st to 2nd gear ang tagal mag shift sa 3rd to 6th gear. I heard that my silent recall ang ford regarding focus and fiesta. I hope hindi ganito ang ranger. In my experience, maganda bumili ng bago unit after a year so u could know recall ng auto mo but its very tempting to buy ranger at early stage kasi mura pa

the 6speed A/T on the ranger is the conventional torque converter A/T. it is not the same as the Powershift dual clutches found on fiesta and the all-new focus.

Has anybody tried installing Pulse Creative parking sensor? I called their office and they said that if your bumper is metal, it won't work.

[duramax_994]

I'm quite disappointed and wanna check with you guys if this is true.. My SA told me the available 4x4 XL model has:

1. a 2.2L diesel with an output of 125 horsepower only.
2. black color is NOT AVAILABLE as of the moment.
3. 4x4 XL has inferior specs (ie. no bedliner, step board, etc..) as compared to the 4x2 XLT.

Another thing, he told me the dealership (Ford CDO) is currently being allotted TWO (2) UNITS (Ranger) PER MONTH ONLY!

Is this true?

[Art_87]

Mga ser,

Eto na ba yung actual na babayaran ko?
I simulate on the current price of Ford 3.2L WT A/T

Positive to sir, with stainless nagwawala ang sensor, what we did is we put rubber casing on the back sensor para di madedetect yung stainless around.

ill try to post pics soon, wala lang kasing time..

[artisans]

Very interested in how this turned out sir! Right now wala pa rin akong makitang solution. So now what I do is look for the biggest parking space available.

[Ry_Tower]

Halos kasing-laki pala ng hilux ito but yung ground clearance ang taas. Bagay na bagay sa offroading and baha.

[artisans]

Its bigger than the Hilux bro... even the Hilux G manliliit dito.

Oo mas malaki kaya nga sabi ko halos kasing-laki kung titignan mo, halos lang. The difference in length and height is less than an inch. Pero its definitely wider.
