Which pickup truck boasts superior off-road capability?

When the call of the wild beckons, discerning adventurers turn to their trusty pickup trucks to conquer rugged terrains and untamed landscapes. In this section, we dissect the off-road prowess of two iconic contenders: the Toyota Hilux and the Ford Ranger.

Hilux

• Toyota has equipped the Hilux with leading rear-axle articulation and precise Electronic Traction Control (ETC) calibration, setting it apart in the segment for navigating rough terrain effortlessly.
• Unlike its competitors, such as the Ranger, the Hilux demonstrates superior tractive abilities without the need for additional drive modes or buttons. Even on challenging terrains where other vehicles struggle, the Hilux maintains traction, leaving no trace of dust behind as it ascends rutted climbs.
• While engaging the RDL can be beneficial in certain scenarios, the Hilux often navigates tricky obstacles more effectively by relying solely on its excellent ETC system without engaging the RDL. In instances where terrain demands a differential lock (RDL), the Hilux's performance can be altered. Engaging the RDL disables the ETC across the front axle, resulting in the Hilux operating as a three-wheel drive instead of four.

Ranger

• The Ranger benefits from chassis modifications, enhancing rear axle articulation for improved traction on uneven terrain. Although the Ranger has historically performed well off-road, these modifications further enhance its capability compared to previous models. However, the independent front end remains susceptible to lifting wheels easily, impacting overall off-road performance.
• The Ranger is equipped with an effective Electronic Traction Control (ETC) system, which remains active even when engaging the standard rear differential lock (RDL). Despite its effectiveness, the Ranger's ETC is not as quick in action as the system found in the Hilux, which sets the standard for responsiveness.
• In scenarios where traction is lost, such as navigating steep, loose surfaces, the Ranger's ETC may take longer to intervene compared to the Hilux's system. While selecting the mud and ruts setting can sharpen the ETC's response, it still falls short of the Hilux's rapid action.
• The Ranger Sport variant offers forward-facing and 360-degree cameras, accessible through the 10-inch centre screen, providing valuable assistance when driving off-road or manoeuvring in tight spaces.²

These ownership costs are in conjunction with the regular costs of owning any vehicle. 

Resale Value and Depreciation

Cars, like many other assets, depreciate over time, losing value as they age and accrue mileage. However, some vehicles hold their value better than others, and this is where resale value becomes significant.

Dual cab vehicles, particularly popular models like the Toyota Hilux and Ford Ranger, tend to have relatively strong resale values. The versatility and practicality offered by dual-cabs make them highly sought after in the second-hand market. Their ability to serve both as family vehicles and workhorses contributes to their enduring popularity, leading to increased demand and subsequently higher resale prices.

Factors influencing resale value include the car's brand reputation, reliability, maintenance history, mileage, and overall condition. Vehicles with a reputation for reliability and durability, such as those from Toyota and Ford, often command higher resale prices due to their perceived value and lower maintenance costs over time.

Additionally, features and options can impact resale value. Vehicles equipped with desirable features such as advanced safety technology, infotainment systems, and premium interior amenities tend to retain their value better than base models with fewer options.

Financing and Lease Options

For those considering financing, purchasing a Hilux or Ranger through a loan offers the opportunity to own the vehicle outright after the loan term. With financing, you can spread the cost of the vehicle over several years, making it more affordable to budget for monthly payments. Additionally, owning the vehicle outright allows you the freedom to customise or sell the car at any time, potentially increasing its resale value in the long run. Financing also allows you to build equity in the vehicle, providing a valuable asset for the future.

Alternatively, leasing a Hilux or Ranger provides a flexible and cost-effective option for drivers who prefer to upgrade to a new vehicle every few years. With leasing, you can enjoy driving a brand-new Hilux or Ranger without committing to long-term ownership. Lease agreements typically require lower upfront costs and monthly payments compared to financing, making them an attractive option for those on a budget. Additionally, leasing offers the convenience of returning the vehicle at the end of the lease term, allowing you to easily transition to a newer model without the hassle of selling or trading in the car.
