In this episode, Savagegeese dives into the 2025 Ford Ranger, a truck that's been given a thorough makeover. This second-gen T6 model has seen significant improvements, addressing past criticisms head-on. The team explores the truck's enhanced features, such as a lengthened and widened frame, redesigned rear suspension packaging, and increased bed space. With side steps and a payload capacity of 17-18800 lb, this Ranger means serious business on the road.

Inside, the Ranger doesn't disappoint either. The Lariat trim level offers heated seats and a steering wheel, along with a Bang & Olufsen audio system for that extra touch of luxury. However, the touchscreen interface may leave something to be desired, requiring some extra taps to navigate through functions. But when it comes to hitting the road, the Ranger shines with its improved drivetrain calibration and responsive steering, making for a more refined driving experience compared to its predecessors.

Under the hood, the 2.7L V6 engine delivers ample torque and decent fuel economy, although some softness in the brakes may raise a few eyebrows. Despite this minor hiccup, the Ranger stands out in its class, especially with the V6 engine providing that extra oomph on the road. Overall, Savagegeese concludes that the Ford Ranger Lariat is a practical and enjoyable option in the midsize truck segment, offering a blend of utility and comfort that's hard to beat.
