Except for the European Ranger, the rest are equally as old as the American one.

Pollution wise they can but the U.S. has a little more stricter safety standards.

Nope. The Ford ranger will be celebrating it's 27th aniversary this september. 1983 to 2010 (so far).

Not sure where I am wrong. lol. My crewcab is a 03 and it has the looks of a 98-00 Ranger from the States. Changes are minimal on those trucks. The new Southamerican Ranger had a facelift and that is it. New front end. Same old truck.

Not complaining, tho. It gives me 27 mpg in the city. Can't get any better than that!

Well, a pair of the Euro Rangers was spotted driving around Beverly Hills the other day. Maybe Ford is still considering brining it here.

simple solution... make it pass! i mean, there are a thousand vehicles that aren't designed for here, and when they were brought here, they modified it slightly to meet the requirements...

several things i'm thinking... if it's a right hand drive, it's obviously brought over here from europe, which brings me to the question, why are they bothering to test it, if it's a production vehicle, and if it's NOT a production vehicle, why was it built right hand drive?

additionally, if they bring out the new rangers, with that god aweful windshield angle, i WILL NOT be owning a new one, i think they are discusting to look at... on that link you posted, the blue ranger at the bottom, i think looks incredible (of course different windsheild than the others)

I must've misread your post or something. No matter the Ranger just needs some changes very badly. This will be my last post because this site gives my cpu problems. Plus I've got entirely too much going on right now and I aint describing it either (my sponsors won't let me).

With that being said, Goodbye everyone it's been fun. This is The Knightmare signing off.
