I've asked that same question to various people and have yet to get an answer

It's a 1996 right? That was VERY common for that generation. The ones with the chrome trim on the wheel wells tended to fare better than the rest of them. Probably had better drainage due to the fasteners.

Also E-Series and stripped chassis.

I don't remember the exact number but yeah it was something like that. I thought the plan was pretty much everything gets a hybrid version except for things like Super Duty, Heavy Trucks and HD Transit.

I volunteered. Probably don't have the seniority to make the cut but we'll see.

Ever since Mazda backed out and Ford bought it from them outright, that plant has kind of been a red-headed stepchild to me. I don't think they really know what they have in that plant or what to do with it.

I did that back in the day when I got furloughed at my last job

Honestly I couldn't personally compare the 2, I've never worked on a Transit but I have worked on an Express 3500 with a diesel and it was a damn nightmare. A bigger engine would be even worse.

Lol I bet that would be a joy to work on

You might be onto something there, but the left won't allow it. Gas powered cars climate change something something....

You mean Fusion. Focus never had the 1.5 in North America.

That's even more rare though. Around where I live there's a lot of older neighborhoods where it's houses on small lots and, if you’re lucky, a short driveway with no garage. That means almost exclusively street parking only. Who wants to run a power cable from your house across the lawn/sidewalk to the street? Not many I'm sure.

That and they needed the extra factory capacity for Canyorado production.

That requirement was waived temporarily.

So is yours. You have provided zero data as to why the current engines in the Bronco are insufficient (assuming our guesses as to what are going to be in it are accurate).
