That moment when you find yourself parked beside and looking up to a Ford Ranger. It’s a diesel. It’s a manual. What more do you want?

Kinja'd!!!

Yes, it’s got the 2.2 four from the Transit. There’s a 3.2 five as well but few are sold because waste of money and diesel.

huh, didn’t realize they made a 2.2 version. We are getting the ranger here soon, but I am REALLY doubting we will be getting the 3.2 duratorq (not EPA compliant for this category of truck)...maybe the 2.2, but I doubt that too since it would be underpowered for the US market.

They made turbo diesel rangers for the US in the 80s.

They’d have to do something like a 2.2 because a big engine just won’t sell.

The 2.2 is the only engine you can get in a Transit here (there’s a choice of power outputs but that’s all) and the six speed manual is the only option.

“....you can get in a Transit here ”...

Everywhere in Europe so far as I know.

Americans get only automatic Transits with big engines so far as I know but that wouldn’t work on my side of the pond.

In the U.S., a Ford Ranger is a dreadful little pick-up truck. Robust and dependable, perhaps, but perfectly dreadful in every aspect of appearance and comfort.

For me, it’s a big, ugly contraption that’s getting bigger and uglier with each incarnation.
