and im good with the 6.2 or a big diesel in an f150
and i stilll think the ranger should have a v8 option. kinda old school thinking im sure. but still would be fun.
and the SD with a cat trans sounds like a plan. an unstoppable fantastic plan.

And PS, maybe F150 Diesel?

Why does the US hate diesels so much?
but, it would be awesome. i'd probably sell my first born for that in a f250-350 lol

Haha sounds like a hell of deal! but sadly, the Cat engine is way to heavy to put into a light duty pick up.you'd need a pretty stiff front end. Wouldn't be worth it.
Check out last months issue of Diesel Power, they've got a whole article in it about Ford concept trucks that got the ax over the past 15years. There's stone pretty sweet ideas in there!
Oh, also check out the issue from two months ago. There's an article about half ton diesels. I can scan the articles and post them on here if anyone wants to read them

Bring the bronco back as a raptor Or raptor expedition
Offer a 6.2 in ANY F150
V6 diesel in the F150(Powerstroke minus two)
Make a small bronco like the original with either a 5.0 or the Eco-Boost
Raptor SuperDuty or SuperDuty HOSS that was in diesel power a couple years ago.
Offer the Expedition in a 3/4 ton with a 6.2
I have many more ideas but those are my favorites.

seriously though, my first 2 thoughts were
1: a modern era version of the early bronco, Jeep wrangler size coil sprung with possibly even a solid axle up front. V6 and V8 power. and offer a 1/2 cab option.
2: diesel F150
a new 6.7 minus 25% would be a 5.0. how cool would it be to have a 5.0 diesel AND 5.0 gas F150 both of which will haul the mail.

Oh, due to the size of the scans, you may need to download the photos so you can zoom in and read them. The pictures are in reverse order, so the first picture is the last page of the article
