In this exhilarating episode of Hoonigan, we witness a showdown between two off-road beasts: a modified 89 Toyota truck and a luxurious 1989 Ford Ranger pre-runner. The Toyota, crafted by BJ from Lake Tahoe, boasts a powerful Chevy LS7 crate engine generating 505 horsepower, coupled with a rugged suspension setup featuring junkyard parts and 17 inches of front travel and 24 inches of rear travel. On the other side, Mr. RJ's Ford Ranger stands tall with a big block Chevy engine churning out nearly 700 horsepower, Fox shocks providing 20 inches of front wheel travel and 28 inches at the rear. The competition is fierce, with both contenders showcasing their unique strengths and capabilities.

BJ's Toyota impresses with its winch at the back, a 32-gallon fuel cell, and a King shock package, while Mr. RJ's Ford Ranger shines with Walker beadlocks, BFG tires from the '90s, and a trunk housing essential tools and batteries. Inside the vehicles, the Toyota sports a simple yet effective switch Pro system, gear shifter, and turbo 300 reverse manual valve body, while the Ford Ranger boasts a tablet for monitoring engine functions, rugged radio communication, and a sleek interior with leather or marine-grade vinyl. As the race unfolds, it becomes evident that each vehicle has its unique advantages, setting the stage for a thrilling off-road battle.

The race between the Toyota and the Ford Ranger unfolds with adrenaline-pumping moments, showcasing the prowess of both machines on the challenging terrain. Despite the Toyota's impressive performance, it is the Ford Ranger that emerges victorious, demonstrating superior suspension and handling capabilities. In a bonus round, the Ford Ranger further solidifies its dominance, leaving no doubt about its off-road prowess and design. The episode culminates in a celebration of the Ford Ranger's triumph, highlighting the thrill and excitement of off-road racing at its finest.
