Ford ranger raptor. Ultra capable in desert, comfortable on road, great power to weight ratio, and no mods required. Big tray at the back for camping gear if you want to camp. I went and test drove about 10 different vehicles across all price ranges,.. put together a spreadsheet of spec, price, driving experience, warranty etc Check and details like clearance, angles at front and back, tyres, wheels, suspension, power to weight. Feed it to chat gpt for analysis, Then go buy the ranger raptor 😎

hi @Pats at 0mm offset without any lift.. you will get rubbing of your tyres on the wheel arches when the suspension is under compression. when suspension under compression and turning.. you will be rubbing the fender and wheel arches. On my pajero.. this resulted in cracked fender plastic trim pieces, and the front wheel well liners getting torn completely out exposing the wiring harnesses etc which run through the inside of the steel fender. you could look for a method wheel that has higher offset, as close as possible to your factory offset to avoid rubbing. Or get the stock 17' rims and mount the R17 tyres on it.

yeah i was getting a bunch of cloudflare glitches for some reason..

good work 💪

Congrats!

great work @Michael asir! see you on a FB+ drive soon!

I chopped up that poor plant for no reason! 😅

Thanks for fun drive today everyone! We started heading into the big dunes of nahel in search of spice and passing the large nahel lake. Lots of flowing dunes and fast driving before heading back towards the Pacman Zone and trying to thread the needle between fences and farms to the south. After some fast sabhka crossings and passing the burnt out FJ, we visited the ghafatein bowl and enjoyed some loops. Next we made our way over to naghra where @Ale Vallecchi was constantly being harassed by fremen insurgents (quad car things) stopping us from harvesting spice and hitting all the climbs together. @Benje_Junior took over to lead the last quarter, revisiting some bowls from an early intermediate drive he did (if I heard properly over the radio 😅). I'd never been to this area before and enjoyed the long ridge rides and climbs! My stats say we averaged nearly 30kph... Pretty fast over a lot of different terrain! Nice fun Sunday! See you next time It's lucky we exited when we did..my car was saying 16km of fuel remaining even tho I started with a full tank😅 Jerry can in the backgot me to the next adnoc, but was looking close there for a while 😂😂

Nice work @Gautam Banka 😁 Promotion and first IM level drive 1 day apart! see you out there sometime soon!

Congrats! see you on a FB drive soon!
