Yes, that looks like North American version for 2019 but is the T6 International version, with turbo diesel engine

But a very cool video, thanks, I enjoyed it

2019 Ranger sold here only has one engine option, 2.3l ecoboost, gasoline engine, 285HP and 305 torque, which is great but this is a heavier platform

Also, the only transmission will be the newer 10-speed automatic, this is needed for the automated 2WD and 4WD system, manual trans would take away the automatic traction control options

Schools still out on the 10-speed, joint venture between Ford and GM, yes they cooperated on this rear wheel drive trans, as they are on front wheel drive version

Many feel 6-speeds are enough for any situation and the extra ratios are window dressing and just more things to go wrong, lol, I guess like everything time will tell

2-speed automatics had problems
3-speed as well
4 and 5 speed did too
But I don't think there were more problems based solely on more gears, i.e. 5-speed didn't have 3 times more problems than 2-speed because it had 3 more gears, lol

Some videos I've seen say the TD isn't fast.

*Edit* at 6:38, he speaks of it.

IMO...a 2.3 or 2.7 EB in there would have been a better choice.

Looks damn sexy, though.

I wanna see a swap of the full-size Raptor 3.5 EB into this thing.
