Farley Says Boring Vehicles Are Going Away
70 Stang replied to silvrsvt's topic in Ford Motor Company Discussion Forum
Considering who he said it to.....and the context.....it was exactly what needed to be said -
So how much capacity does that leave for Bronco?

Official '24 Ford Ranger NA Release
70 Stang replied to ANTAUS's topic in Ford Motor Company Discussion Forum
I'm starting to feel like the new Ranger is the Bronco pickup, and Ford will be happy with 5k sales a month. The Raptors is surely class leading and priced well, but I see the rest of the lineup as a low seller. I saw a new Colorado Z71 on a dealers lot, and compared to the Lariat I priced to order, it's a bargain. $49k with sunroof and ventilated seats......Lariat roughly $53k with 2.7......and no sunroof or ventilated seats. No way I can buy a GM, but it gets harder to get a Lariat.......$1k order discount will help. -

Toyota is doing something similar to GM.......3 or 4 versions of the 2.4 turbo with the hybrid being at the top. -

This article states the Tremor will arrive when the 2.7 is available. The 2.7 will be standard on the Tremor. https://www.thedrive.com/news/next-gen-ford-ranger-tremor-allegedly-revealed-in-leaked-order-guide -

So can you change your order later to the 2.7 when it comes out, or do we just wait until it's on the order guide? The Lariat I built is $51K.....about $3k more than last year.......the XLT I build is a couple hundred $ less......lol -
Ford Adding AM Radio Back Into Vehicle

I read that part.....and should have quoted it. Kind of makes sense with Ford being the #1 Brand for a while. -
Ford Adding AM Radio Back Into Vehicle
70 Stang replied to ANTAUS's topic in Ford Motor Company Discussion Forum
I think it depends on where you are and what you want to listen to.......but there are more listening to AM than what some of these articles are stating.. https://news.radio-online.com/articles/b17411/Over-82-Million-Americans-Listen-to-AM-Radio-Monthly#:~:text=Cumulus Media | Westwood One's Audio,of Ear" and Advertiser Perceptions. Cumulus Media | Westwood One's Audio Active Group has released a new comprehensive analysis of listening data from the Nielsen Fall 2022 Survey, MRI Simmons, Edison Research's "Share of Ear" and Advertiser Perceptions. It reveals 82 million reasons to keep AM radio in vehicles, illustrating why AM/FM radio is still the queen of the road as 82,346,800 Americans listen to AM radio monthly. -

Just conservative radio in general.......not "tinfoil hat conspiracy theories"......LOL -

Yep, it's a lot about the information on AM that they want to hinder.....not about EV interference. All vehicles have electric motors that don't interfere with the radio. -
It's hideous.....without it not a bad looking truck. The TRD Pro looks nowhere near as good as the Raptor.

I agree, but I think Toyota does have them beat on over styled a little.....and on the air dam!

You know it's bad when we get decontented from the ROW Ranger....don't quite get that one. I'm sure we'll get some additional packages, but I doubt anything like the Platinum. I have driven F-150's just about all my life, but it's outgrown me, and I'll be getting a mid-size something before long. Being loyal to Ford is a little tough in this instance , but we can say it's better than a Frontier. I'm sure pricing won't reflect the less features, but we'll see! Glad you like your 2022 Tremor......nice truck?

The super cab is interesting.....no rear doors or rear seats. Very nice storage set up though.....makes sense with no usable seat room back there anyway. https://www.tacoma4g.com/forum/threads/2024-tacoma-trd-prerunner-photos-exterior-interior.1324/

Official '24 Ford Ranger NA Release
70 Stang replied to ANTAUS's topic in Ford Motor Company Discussion Forum
Oh well......I figured with the bed getting wider and the slightly better interior dimensions, it had gained a little bit. BTW, and maybe everyone already knows this, but the GM twins are 2.5" shy of 48" between wheel wells. I would think that would be a pretty big deal in the long run.....but who knows these days. I am going to order a Ranger, and see how the size works. I am coming from an F-150, and the size of that has outgrown my tastes, so hopefullyu the Ranger will work. -

MT had an article out last night comparing the Ranger dimensions to the Colorado, and they were using the 38.3" rear leg room. On several occasions they mentioned how the Ranger had a much roomier back seat.....lol. I should've known from the start that was a misprint......wanting a mid-size truck with midsize dimensions is to much to ask for. The added width seems to have helped a little though. https://www.motortrend.com/features/ford-ranger-vs-chevrolet-colorado-specs-features-comparison/ -

That's disappointing..grew .1" from 5G truck. It's just a little less than the GM twins though......we'll see! -

I was hoping for a hybrid also. One of the articles I read over the last couple of days said it's definitely coming, but who knows. It would make sense only to keep the launch simpler. I still think I am going to order one, but not completely sure yet. I am hoping more colors are added at some point also. Can't wait to see the rest of your list either. -

The Tech Specs show the transfer case having a high and low range and doesn't say optional......so we'll see!
