Just so you all know... They're getting rid of the Ranger, and bring back the F-100 in a couple of years. There will be a time span where they don't have a compact/small truck (so expect the F-150 sales to shoot up), and then they will come out with the F-100. Bigger than the Ranger, smaller than the F-150. From a reliable insider source.

First off this is sad news for the 1234567896-th time, I've said it before and will say it again. I use my Ranger for my business, as I haul chemicals just like the million Pest Control companies that use small trucks & Rangers a Transit conect or enclosed vehicle would not work for our usage. And Tacomas just cost as much as Full Sized trucks making them not a smart choice for a new vehicle for a business.

Ford claimed the Crown Vic tooling and development was paid for over a decade ago or more, I would think the same for the Ranger WTF would you kill off something that is STILL in demand by thousands of local Government municipals and small/ large business. Even a good precentage of regular Joes still buy new Ragers because it's still a good little truck.

nick, your a newbie, who lives in canada. don't come into this thread with a bunch of BS. I live in MN, where the ranger is built. I know the whole story. Did YOU know the ranger was supposed to end production in 2007? then it was pushed back to 2009, then 2011. and there is not going to be any F-100.
so, whoever told you that is an idiot.
and while i'm at it, MAKE A SIGNATURE!
