Am I disappointed Mercedes offered a 190kw/550Nm engine to Fords 157kw/500Nm for the Ranger Raptor? Sorry to disappoint you, no I’m not. Even if the Ranger Raptor was offered with a motor running the same power as the Merc I’d still opt for the 2 litre. Even in the current Ranger there are customers who choose the smaller capacity engine - imagine that.

You mention you ‘can’t wait’ - geezuz settle down, it’s only another 33kw/50Nm more than FORDS 2 litre and 3 less gears

When the comparison goes off-road get ready to really laugh.

2 entirely different vehicles for 2 entirely different customers.
