love the black ceiling.
Space is not class leading but comfy enough.
Like the placements of cabin lights in the rear and middle cabins, and is it me or the lights are already LED?
Like the small grip and feel of the steering wheel.
Lots of toys and gimmicks for the titanium ( puddle light. illuminated scuff plates, backing camera, 20 in wheels... etc.
Love the big step board.

Dont like:
Lack of GPS, USB movie player in the Head unit, at this price, it should be a given.
Beige interior
2nd row tumble seats are hard to use.
A lot of internet and feedback about Fords reliability and CASA service and parts horror stories.

Bottom line, Ford has a winner here, right now, Alabang is saying the tag line of no DI's, but if they start doing the DI's they once did when the Explorer was hot, I'm sure a lot wont buy, specially if the new Fort and Monty prove to be winners or good alternatives.

Whats the the 4X2 AT variant to buy?

I'd go for the Ambiente 4x2 at 1.4M
why?

The Titanium is about 240k more and believe me it's all just additional toys and features I can live with out, I'd use that money to but aftermarket rims I like and a good AV unit.

The Trend is about 140k more than the Ambiente, with just upgrades int he gadget and toys department, again I'd buy a good AV unit and maybe rims from the left over cash.

well this is just me....but of course if you got money to splurge, then go for it, its your money..your rules.

May naka display na sa Ford Alabang??
Eyeing for Titanium 4x4 Plus yong additional nilang 100k hehehhe. it's time to save money.
Sana magkaroon na rin ng dipslay dito sa Ford Cavite para mas malapit sa bahay.

And I thought September pa ung release nito? hmm.. kelan kaya magkakaron ng display sa Ford Balintawak, same with TS I'd go for the Ambiente 4x2, btw, walang cruise control ang base model, sa ranger ko even xlt manual has it.

It's still September for the actual unit deliveries....

Ford Casa's has only 2-3 units to go around the showrooms ( NO 4x4 3.2 Titanium) so they are rotating the casa exposure for the units. The unit in Alabang was slated for display until yesterday only, now it's in another casa ( dont know where?) Suggest you contact your SA's to know when the it will be displayed to a Casa near you.

Nagpa-reserve na ako for the trend variant last wednesday sa ford sta rosa.
An advantage for the trend against the titanium is that it has black interior.

**norelco** · May 25th, 2015 08:37 PM

Gwapo siguro ng White na Trend variant tapos naka black tint & black intetior..

**GTcervan** · May 26th, 2015 07:25 PM

Wow, very good prices for the 4x2 variants kahit na 2.2 lang pero 160ps lang sya. It could have been 170-180ps pero ok lang yun. Sana lang hindi sya underpowered.

Worth considering yung 3.2 with premium package. Andami nyang features over competitors. And since benchmarked pa sya against the prado, hehe... Alam na. Anlaki ng price difference.

When you say Black interior as in ceilings, side panels and seat? If it is then it will be really good sa Trend. Madami ang umaayaw sa beige interiors

i think the 2.2 is just the same specs we have for the current ranger in terms of engine. 160hp * 3700rpm. which is for me okay naman specially its a people carrier lang din.

Yes, black lahat according to the 2 agents (1 in sta rosa and 1 in alabang) that I talked to.

This is strange. The SA at Ford Alabang that I talked to told me that the Trend variant has the same beige interior (including leather seats) as the Titanium variant. Only the Ambiente is black (with fabric seats).
