That sucks i think they look pretty cool
When I deployed to Iraq in 2004 one of the vehicles we had to run around base was a 2002 Ford Ranger crew cab 4x4 diesel. Great little truck and tons of power. To bad the US is still lost in the 1800's on the whole vehicle concept. They can't pass rollover tests, emissions etc. Yeah right, its their excuse for not building them here. I bet with 0 emissions controls they would still pass emissions, my 84 ranger did and the emissions controls were ripped out of it. They fail emissions because of the emissions control devices. As for the rollover test fails, that's what happens when you let idiots drive or run the controls. Anyone who knows how to drive would know how to properly handle their vehicle to avoid such rollovers. Time to let common everyday people with common sense run the testing equipment instead of overpaid, underworked idiots.
Ford is afraid the new larger Ranger will take sales away from it's precious flagship F-150 and risk it's 30-something year run as best selling full size truck.![]()
the ONLY FAWKING REASON there is not a 4door 35 mpg diesel ranger in our showrooms is because it would decimate f150 sales.
so ford can go choke on a dick and die as far as i am concerned
you see the lobo on occasion in the detroit area testing...just a mexican 150
