So two ton for the ranger is probably reasonably close then? I understand they added significant weight to the raptor.

Valued Contributor: For members whose non technical contributions are worthy of recognition. - Issue reason: Jim has consistently for some time now shared his life, and his passions in his XY GT and more so his FG GT in a way so everyone here feels part of the journey, which helps make AFF such a worthwhile place to be.  An outstanding contributor in my book. 
Default 2018 Ranger Raptor

Heya all, haven't been around for a while. Probably a good a place as any to say I bought one. Flicked my Sprint, and took delivery two days ago.

After all the reviews and my own apprehension on the driveline, I still pulled the trigger. I've never owned a dual cab ute and have been on record as saying I'd rather pull hairs out of my bum than drive a dual cab ute lol still, I'm actually impressed with it.

It's no powerhouse and that's been no secret but it gets along okay, and is well mated to the trans.

She's a big girl though. Lol obviously just a Ranger length but she's tall and wide. And I like em wide

I'll post some more but, yeah, wow- me in a Ranger. Well, a Raptor

Either way, had to be a Ford.

Obligatory pic, forgive the quality

Some kind of SC v8 will be placed in this raptor me thinks. 0-100 in 7 seconds will put you to sleep Jim.
I’ll put a little money on it
