I love it, and I've also been figuring when it comes stateside that it'll have the 2.7EB.
Considering a base Raptor is just under $50k (MSRP atleast), I'd HOPE the Ranger will start low to mid 40s.
Rapturd? (Raptor dropping)Should've called it something else.
You could make that same argument that you can doubt the Ranger will be here as Ford doesn't want to cannibalize F-150 sales. Yet the Ranger is here.I doubt we'll see it here. Ford doesn't want to cannibalize F-150 Raptor sales.
From what I recall, Australia adopted Europe's emission standards a while back.@SID297 do they have DPF on it over there like we have it on our diesels?

So, probably.
It's just how shit goes.Thats a kick in the nuts then
If you want to compare in the dirt where it matters, wont make a difference if this truck has 210hp or 400hp. The stock suspension on any raptor isnt enough to really use THAT much.a diesel 4 cylinder in the US market would be a huge mistake in a performance oriented truck. The NA 3.3l would be a much better choice. The ecoboost 2.7l in this truck would step on the heels of the fullsize raptor so i cant see them going that route.
210hp is a joke in a $45,000 "performance truck" regardless of how good the suspension is.

As far as Im concerned the Ranger was the og offroad race platform so the f150 can take a seat and let that name be used.
Needs a different name. There is already a Raptor and its not a Ranger its an F150. Thats like a newly designed and modified Chevy Cruz and calling it a "Cruz Zo6" jus sounds stupid.
Lol! Way off... Im talking about offroad racing no idea what a 6 second celica has anything to do with it.The Ranger has been nothing but a poor mans 4x4 from like 20 years ago dude..... The race car Celica from Toyota goes low 6's in the 1/4 mile so does that now mean the Toyota Celica is a race car platform.
