Definitely hinde masyado nag-focus ang R&D division ng Ford interms of aerodynamics with the new Ranger because it's a pick-up truck not a race car.
    If you watched the development video of the rqnger, they did actually take in aerodynamics in consideration. It is even more slippery than the Hilux which makes it the most aerodynamic pickup truck in its class. Having a drag coefficient of iirc 0.24.

    But due to the size of the ranger the air that passes through it affects more surface area as the air gets denser as you go faster.

    Just did 170km/h at sctex. Kakayanin 180km/h i think. Satisfied na ako sa power and ride. Had fun using the cruise control and manual mode shifting.

    I doubt, sobrang bagal na from 170-175 eh. Aerodynamics na talaga yung limiting factor, hindi pa nga redline ng 5th yun e pero sagad na

    I hit it but it was on a downhill slope. I stayed flat out for the length of the Skyway but hindi na talaga umaangat. We were 4 on board though but I doubt going alone would have made any difference

    Ok so far 10 nga ata ang confirmed na pupunta ng EB. Sana may dumagdag pa sa list.

    1. Djerms
    2. kng200
    3. nicenz
    4. thunder_god
    5. bilog
    6. jut703
    7. Turbonitecs
    8. yggyboy
    9. clairenceh
    10. ebmosqueda
    11.
    12.


    Venues suggested:
    BGC area
    MOA area (Vikings or Buffet 101, Bluewave macapagal blvd, yakimix)
    Tagaytay (Leslie's)
    Nuvali( Solenad 1&2 or Nuvali Wake Park, lots of food establishments as well)
    Paseo de Santarosa (lots of food establishments and outlet stores)
    Tiendesitas (lots of food establishments)

    May recommend pba kayo na venue? Though I think there are a few people sa list that would be coming from way up north, luge ata sila sa travel time, toll fees and fuel. I would recommend at least a venue na pwede meet halfway for them.

    Date: TBD
    Day: Definitely weekends though I prefer Sundays para mas maluwag ng konti ang traffic
