Did Alan Mulally let slip the words "New Ranger"? I could have sworn I heard that.

He says it around 5:30.

CNBC interview with Alan Mulally about the new 2011 Ford Explorer (Eh..)

He let slip the words "New Ranger". WHAT COULD THIS MEAN?!
Lets hope for an Ecoboost I4 and a better V6, or perhaps (Highly doubt it though) a turbodiesel.

I would be completely sold on a Ranger with an I4 Powerstroke with a 6-speed manual, however the likelihood of that is non-existant.




I really hope he isn't referring to the 2010 Rangers having Advancetrac and rear disc brakes.



Discuss.

I believe he means the 2010 rangers....

I heard the new Ranger he was refering to was the overseas Ranger...

So when is the 2011 Ranger coming out?

That about his "slip" was mentioned down in the truck news. You want a 2011 Ranger, go order now.

He specifically said new ranger.. it was possible the best slip ive heard lately.. the spy shots are four doors too

 

[machine090767]

how do you know it was a "slip"? sounded to me like he intended to say "new Ranger"

 

[backroad101]

Since he was talking about how many countries the new Explorer will be exported to, I would venture to say his Ranger "slip" was about the overseas Ranger. We'll see I guess

.

 

[PickupMan04 FX4 L2]

perhaps he did.. when he went on to talk about the new products he sated that they were new products for the us..

also this is the FIRST direct mention of any "new ranger" product in the works..
