As the owner of a 1:1 '79 F-150 Ranger Lariat (sorry that's a mouthful) I am so glad to see this. Called my local hobby shop and ordered on as soon as I heard. I'm going to need that pushbar and probably the light kit as well. My truck is rosegold (Vaquero) and brown so the brown one is perfect. Great review as always Matt! Keep up the great work.

Hell yeah dude thats awesome. I'm still waiting for a 1999-2001 Jeep Cherokee/ Grand Cherokee😭 I got a 1999 I'm working on and wanna build a mini-me lol
It is a beautiful ol ford, I my self am a chevy guy but this blue f150 ranger xlt is way good lookin with the slot mags and the double nerf bar! Sweet
Oh the cinematographic feel on that run video... 😍 The only thing I love better is the Forvrollet/Chevord logo! 😄 Please to do it with other brands? 🙏
1.9s, portal delete and 4.20in tires would look fantastic on that thing!
Outstanding! I’m an avid BIGFOOT fan and would love to add this to my collection. Thank you Traxxas!

This generation of trucks ran from '73-'79. Came in all sorts of trim packages including the Ranger, custom, and camper special. The Ranger is has always been and will always be my absolute favorite truck ever made or will ever be made.

One thing I can say about Traxxas is that they do a great job with bodies. Other than the blacked out stickers, this body looks amazing! I am not a fan of the lifted trucks so I may try to pick up the body whenever that becomes possible and see what I can do with it!
I like what they have done with this platform. What's interesting about this truck is that you could have a more accurate Bigfoot replica than the one they have released. I wonder if that is in the works for this?
Any Ford fan is a friend of mine, love it!!! Really….REALLY looking forward to your follow up vlog of bringing it back down to an even more realistic rendition of ford masterism, lol. I’ll have two! Ford is better!!!
Very nice looking body on this one. I like how the don't have that fillet between the cab and bed like you see on most Lexan pickup bodies. And no body posts! Nice review!
I love it. Thank you for your View on the Truck. Cool Running Video 👍

A great looking truck and video! I would've had to try driving on the lake ice!
This is a great looking truck and I think the JConcept Ranger 2.2s would look fantastic under this truck.
Man, what a GORGEOUS truck! The funky tune in the edit was perfect! Both the wheels and body, especially in that blue, completely sold it to me! And I'm definitely not a Traxxas fan! To be fair, I'm just sick of everyone owning a Defender in my area, nothing wrong with the chassis... although I'd love it much more if the axles were straight, and the casings looked more scale! I'd get straight end side casings for it, and call it done!
My son has one. We love and have done some up grades already. Great truck.

Good to hear!
I finally got my k10 yesterday. About a battery pack deep and I have no complaints besides the top heavy dynamics. Some lcg mods will hopefully cure most of that.
Wish they offered this truck as a kit! More than likely I’ll be getting the brown version….because I have a real 79 Brown F350 4x4 and I’ll add the hightrail to the rest of my Ford fleet of RCs..😊
Thanks for the video, I was thinking about the lift kit on my traxxas 79 Bronco, but it might be more fun to buy one of those.
Really nice video and answers most of the questions I have about this particular truck. I am looking into buying this truck, and the look of it, and the features it offers are what are drawing me to it. I have been out of the RC hobby for a bit and want to get back into it, and this truck caught my eye. I don’t know why, but I kind of like the brown one. Again, nice video. Thank you.

Great video Matt. And the Ford F150 is absolutely gorgeous.

Well done Traxxas and Matt you have done an awesome job with this video.💪👍.only thing Im not 100% with is Traxxas charge exorbitant crazy high prices for spares back up here in Australia but that's true of any brand RC equipment here in Australia. Anyway great job again Matt

Okay, just watched the whole video and let me say you did a great job, top video, im looking forward to seeing how you get on removing the paint from the windows, also now thinking i might just get the clear body kit when it comes out and do a nice Lariat paint job on it and fit it to my Carisma scale Ford F-150 chassis with magnet mounts as wheelbase is about same

Great Review and Run Video Matthew 💯 I'm liking the Rollbar already installed the K10 Cheyenne High Trail was off the dimple marks quite a bit... Does the Pro Scale Lighting Kit System come with the Roll Bar lights too, or is everything a separate kit and conjunked together 🤪 like the K10? ✌🤠👍 Having Fun Laughing Playing and RCing 🙏 Stay Safe and Play Healthy My Friend 🏁💯🏁

The jumps at 9:20 looks amazing!!!!
My Chevy is acting like a Ford. Day 1.. hr 2 my steering servo.. gets stripped. Day 7 I buy the 8038 light kit... my front right signal not working. Good luck. She looks nice though. Need trx4m bodies of the same years. Have fun and happy trails.
This may have just tipped me over the edge. I've been considering bobbing the chassis on my TRX6 to 4x4 with a cool body. This body is the one.
Definitely wanna get this high trail ranger. I think it would look awesome with the bigfoot graphics added to it as it looks like a first gen Bigfoot!
Definitely get the SSD portal delete kit and some 1.55 wheels and tires after the lift is removed.

Hey Matt, that's a good looking truck! Traxxas does it again! If I win the freebie it will give me an excuse to buy TRX 24! Make it happen!
Just when I was going to push order on the new Josh RTR !
This does look good, yeah the push bars add more to the look of it. I got my Mashigan tried to order through your link just because I liked your Sahara redo. (got notified it was in stock - went to order and out of stock : think we all heard of the deal by now) think it's setup for ~ not lipo, you'd "flip that sticker for the battery selection I'm thinking? Anyways since I couldn't, I'm saving for getting a early Bronco though your link.
Great rig!! Also looks like Traxxas have paid a bit more attention to the stock wheel arches on the Ford - they seem to clear the 2.2's better than the Chevy.
That is a nice lookin truck! I've always liked that body style of Ford's and Traxxas seems to have done a nice job on this one.
