WITHOUT doubt, the most talked about new car of 2022 was the Ford Ranger. As one of the most popular new cars on the Australian market, and with an almost all-new model, the nextgen Ranger was the hot topic of the year.
The next-gen is now the current-gen or RA Ranger, and after many road tests and vehicle comparisons we were keen to get our dirty mitts on one for ourselves. It only made sense for our next build to be with the most talked about new 4x4 in the country.
We were lucky to secure a Ranger Sport V6 from Ford's demonstrator fleet, with just 4000km on the clock and ready to be transformed.
