The highest I saw in 2022-2023 for the Bronco was 14,900 in one month. Even if they allocate 30% of the output to Ranger, we are only looking at 5K vehicles per month. Let’s just hope that the margins on the Ranger are equal to the Bronco, because that is what will drive production allocation.
He loved going in to work and worked lots of OT. I don’t know what his base was, but any job where you can make $250k by working hard is a great job.
The one person I know that works at Ford just retired. He was a pipe fitter at a plant here in the Midwest and made over $250k each of his last 3 years… The managers trying to keep the company competitive in a transitioning market will quickly realize that they are making $100k less than the...
Ford wants to control the end to end business just like Tesla. Jim Farely has made that absolutely clear on multiple occasions. Recall and service work can be accomplished by any shop that Ford approves. Ford is tired of making dealers rich while Ford struggles to make a profit. Those...

2.7 engine on a 4x4 F-150 get 18 city / 24 highway. I’m guessing 19 /25 on the new Ranger with the 2.7. The F-150 comes in at 4,838 lbs while the ranger comes in at 4,415 lbs. It will be both lighter and carry less wind resistance.
Hopefully we will be able to order in October or November... I’m holding off for the V6 simply because I will enjoy the extra power and I prefer to cause less stress on the engine and turbo. I tend to drive my vehicles forever, my theory is that a more powerful engine stressed less over time...
I have not seen any EPA figures. I am currently waiting to order the V6 when it is available to order, but I am very curious about the mileage difference between each of the three power plants. My build Is basically going to be a loaded V6, but the Raptor is only going to cost about $5K more...
