05 3.5 EcoBoost

Finally got a chance to watch. Nice truck.
1 of 5 crate EB3.5 v6 must be at least 10k plus whatever these guys charged for all that custom fab work.

Definitely a nice truck. I noticed they never mentioned how much the swap cost. I'm sure it was expensive. Probably along the lines of "If you have to ask, you can't afford it" expensive.

I know a guy who has a hot rod and custom car shop. The one customer must have more money than he knows what to do with the guy just keeps making changes to it. I think he has about 250k into it at this point......

I don't think that's even possible. I was relatively sure that even if it's a vehicle that's not going to be registered or put on the road at all.. It's federally illegal to import a car newer than 25 years. I've heard of people that had done it, but the vehicles in question got impounded and crushed.

Yeah but $250k on an 05 Ranger with a 3.5 EB is ridiculous. For that price he could have put that exact same motor in one of those "Specail Edition" $40k 2020 Ranger and have the ONLY Amaerican Ranger Raptor in existence. Imo there are way better options than what the owner ended up with.

Different strokes for different folks I suppose.

I'm with you though, if I had that much money to spend on a vehicle it certainly wouldn't be a ranger

It would be some 6x6 overland rig I could live out of, or something that would do well north of 200mph.

Imagine either one of those trucks with proper street tires, lowered to a reasonable level and AWD. #Beastmode.

The customers.
