wish4newstang Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Driving through Yuma Arizona, Pulled up next to a heavily camo pick-up. Several times I tried to get a better look. Four door, what looks to be just abit bigger then the current Ranger. What through me though was the bed. It look almost like a pre runner. Had Michigan plates. From what I could see, looks like a nice truck. I looked on line, and the images of the new Ranger, this was pretty close. I have a question for the experts here. Do the Toyotas and Nissans mules use Manufacture plates? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xr7g428 Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 I saw a GM prototype on 87 going south out of Fountain Hills AZ this morning. IT was pulling a horse trailer that had obviously never seen a horse. IT was being led by another undisguised GM truck. Pulling a trailer loaded with ballast.

justins Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Surprising that you'd say it only looked a bit bigger than the current US Ranger though. The new Ranger, from memory, is substantially bigger than the current RoW Ranger, which is substantially bigger than the current US Ranger, which is based on the almost 2 generations old RoW Ranger / Courier...

T6 Ranger is about the same size as Nissan Frontier. It's not that big. It's smaller than Toyota Tacoma although nearly identical in size to Toyota Hilux, it's main competitor worldwide. The truck spotted by the OP is probably the new US spec Chevy Colorado doing final testing. Edited September 19, 2011 by bzcat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
