Excerpt:
--------------------------------
Ford may keep building Rangers
U.S. production was to end in '09
Bryce G. Hoffman / The Detroit News
With record gasoline prices undermining sales of its full-size pickups, Ford Motor Co. is considering extending the life of its elderly Ford Ranger compact pickup for another two years, according to people familiar with the company's plan.
--------------------------------
Just makes sense at this stage of the game. It is selling, and Ford would be without a compact high-mileage pickup until the global truck is ready. Now we all might have a new last-chance to get into a new Ranger before it's updated.
