14:00 Given that these types of vehicles are driven by tradies who use them for work because they have no time to play, the on-road handling should be a major factor for this vehicle. Realistically, I can't see a serious off-grid four-wheel-driver picking this as their go-to ute for tackling rough terrain. A 1980s diesel Land Cruiser would be arguably more suited.

@Well_Theres_Your_Problem They have produced a solid workhorse. Surprisingly, their initial launch in Australia back in the early 90s was a failure. That Jeep lookalike. But, they still work on farms in 2025, as you said. And mechanically, they're bulletproof.

11:55 Did I hear that wrong? Did you allude to the idea that you'd rather be looking at a front view camera on a screen on the console, rather than looking at the track in front of you? Why? Is the camera mounted low so that you can see the track below the bonnet blind-spot when crawling up a track? If so, that would be brilliant for lining up your wheels on tricky, rutted tracks when you're driving solo. Beyond that, staring at the screen would just be dangerous. EDIT: The 13:00 mark appears to indicate that the front view camera isn't particularly useful for navigating tricky tracks. Oh, I would really love to chew the engineers' ears to figure out why the bonnet release lever is on the passenger side and not the driver side. Just a nit-pick.

@Well_Theres_Your_Problem LOLZ! Yeah, but you know what I'm getting at. A 39k Mahindra has rear locker as standard, and you can put a tray on it. Ladder chassis etc etc. The Ranger is out of its league, price-wise.
