Matt Prior loved running the original, and this one takes everything to another level
As I write this, I've just stepped out of a Range Rover Sport SV. It's a tremendously able car, with the broadest abilities of any production vehicle on sale.And yet, and yet: if I had to wake up every morning forever to find just one 4x4 outside my house, I'd still rather it were a Ford Ranger Raptor.
For the uninitiated, the Raptor is the Ford Performance variant of the company's staple 'compact pick-up truck. It's a double-cab one with five seats but very different suspension than usual. Its specialist set-up with three-way adjustable dampers by off-road racing expert Fox gives it Baja Rally-style gait, so it can go off road very, very fast.
The long wheelbase and overhanging load bed reduce the breakover and departure angles to merely very good, but be in no doubt that the aggressive design and the graphics of this Raptor are backed up by its hardware. There's no body shake, the interior mirror doesn't shimmy over lumps and bumps and as a result it's refined. Even though it wears potentially very noisy knobbly tyres , the Raptor is quiet at speed and has excellent bump absorbency with it.
