Why just 2wh drive.Make it a World rally truck . Send a team to the Paris Dakar race ,then go to the desert races in the south western states and the Baja.

I think we will have to move to Australia to try out anew Ranger

I have to agree with you .I know of hummers in this town that get put away in the winter and they use a 2 wheel drive beater .My 97 f150 4x4 4.6 trailer tow package 3.55 ltd slip has 213000 kilometers 75% of which were towing a 25ft tandem snowmobile trailer. I drive a 2001 miata gt in the summer .The car has 110000 kilometers.

Would you like potential buyers to justify their need for a specific type of vehicle before they are allowed to buy one. Who would oversee this the goverment the motor companys or a group of environmentalists

That is why i mentioned gear ratio my 97 f150 4.6 with 3.55 gears turns lower rpm than my brother inlaws ranger .The hp on these 2 engines isalmost the same ibeleive the 4.6 has a few more hp and a bit more torque the ranger has 4.10 gears

fuel mileage may be affected by the 4.10 ratio in the diffs i was not aware that the ohc 4 liter engine started life as a pushrod they must have got that idea from the mid 60s 427 sohc engine

please remove the valve covers on the ranger 4 liter engine and show me the push rods
