Doing things wrong, until I get it right.
I seem to remember that was about it... maybe some styling...

Hopefully the next Gen brings more Broncoish options.... and a 2wd street version.
I wouldn't mind an awd street truck, it doesn't have to be 2wd. BUT A STREET TRUCK wouldn't hurt my feelings at all. Then Ford would have something the other companies would have to try to compete with, instead of playing catch up to all the others.

An AWD street truck is pretty much and open market for sure. As far as I know, the Ridgeline is the only one. If you consider it a truck... FWD based drivetrain, unit body construction, and strut suspension, I don’t but for the unwashed, it looks like one.

I didn't ask for your life story, just answer the question!

If only ford would put the aviator 3.0 in an all wheel drive ranger!
I believe they would definitely have a winner.

Rumor has it the 3.0 is going in the Bronco Raptor... or whatever they plan to call it. so most of the work will be done for the next Gen Ranger.

I poop in the furnace.
I put a graboid in the bed of my truck, is it a tremor package now? If I put a shrieker in it does it become a tremor lvl 2?

From what I understand the 2.7 and 3.0 ecoboost are externally the same.
But I may be wrong
Lol

Saw this Tremor at the parts wharehouse that is on my street. Looks like a 6.4L not the 7.3 Godzilla. I usually dont get parts from here but have in the past. A little pricey and usually have to order what I need.

It looks like a 6.7 diesel. Has the door emblems and big fuel door for the DEF/fuel fill.
