I've been waiting for the new Ford Ranger. It's due out early next year. But I've read that this new Ranger will be bigger than the old one; essentially a mid-sized truck.
That's not what a want. So I guess I'm back to waiting, this time for the Ford Courier.

I’ve been wondering when Ford would give their old Ranchero another run.

One of the best, and most reliable, vehicles I’ve ever had was a Chevy LUV. The only reason I traded it in, was, it did not have A/C, and I live in Georgia.

Fwiw, the
Ford Ranchero, was introduced in 1957. The El Camino was introduced in 1959.

My first car at 16 was an El Camino. Loved it.

I have a 2007 Ford E-350 XLT passenger van. I just found out that Ford does not make the E-350 series any longer and I do not know what to do. It is the ONLY thing I can use here in Sierra Leone which actually keeps going through the stuff they call “roads” here.
Literally every single car or truck that people try to use here either breaks down or has the front wheel pinions detach.

Me too...My 2006 Ranger 4X4 is getting a bit long of tooth, but I still love it. If they make
the new Ranger as big is the F-150 I may start looking elsewhere.

I searched internet for photos of the Courier, to no avail. Did you find one?

I suspect that EPA fuel economy regulations for trucks versus cars might be a factor in trying to make a car which they can label a truck.

They should instead partner with Subaru to redo the Baja.

Here's one exactly like mine that I bought brand new from Academy Ford in Colorado Springs in 1979.
Same year and color, even down to the pin stripe:
I gave it to my little brother in 1988. He doesn't even remember what happened to it. I expect some drunken horseplay, but who knows?
