The all new Ranger arrived today!

Simply...FORD
Pals, this morning the new Ranger arrived at our local dealership.
Hope you like it; this is what I think:

PROS:
-beautifull new design, similar to the Amarok and Hilux, but in my opinion, a better looking truck
- interior comfort; seats are very comfortable, similar to a car, you can almost forget youre in a truck
- equipment; 2 airbags (the top of the line has 6), ABS, traction control, ESP, multifunction steering, alloy wheels etc etc etc
- engine: this was the 2.5 gasoline engine, which has 170 HP. Theses a 3.2 Turbodiesel Intercooler common rail, with 6 speed manual tranny with 207 HP.
- Built quality
- back seats room; again, you forgot youre in a pick up truck.
- Load capacity

BADS:
- front bumper made of pastic; I dont like that; a chromed metal bumper would be nice, like all ford pick ups
- seat fabric; altough the seats are extremely confortable, the fabric quality can and should be better. Offcourse theres a leather interior option
- some plastic fittings should be better

Here are some pics:

Someone should buy one, drive to the US and crash it so we can all pick through the parts and put them on our trucks. :)
 
I cant say that I like that front end at all. looks like a suv not a truck REDO on fords part
 
Like I always say:

You americans seem to love the "quadcabs" sold here.

STAY MADE IN U.S.A.!

American made Rangers are way better that the ones sold here!
Thats why Im never trading my Ranger for newerers!
 
My lord that thing is fugly... All in favor of not allowing anyone who owns one to join this forum say "I"
