Interesting. It’s kinda difficult to keep up with FMCs history of diesel engines.

Diesel just makes sense to me in trucks of any size, especially now that they’re better behaved. Greatly improved towing capacity, fuel economy and longevity. I marvel at the lack of smaller diesels for even full size trucks, and certainly for midsize. They’ve been protecting their cash cows, Ford especially. I guess I can’t blame them, but the market’s catching up to them. A market left unserved will be filled by somebody eventually and that eventuality has arrived, so they’re throwing in the towel and bringing the Ranger back. Hopefully, with the 4, 5 and even 6 cal. diesels available in other markets.
