Odd 2026 Ranger video. Total BS or is some of it actually true?

I went to the Long McArthur Tim Bartz "How to Order" 2026 Ranger YouTube videos, for the various trim levels. The video you posted looks AI to me compared to what Tim describes. I noticed numerous cut scenes in your posted video that looked familiar to include several assembly line workers dressed in the exact same clothing and same motions with no deviance along with no changes in their hair style or length. Could just be Ford's use of stock footage but don't think so. I'd stick with Tim.

Watched this video this evening, supposedly outlining the changes to the 2026 Ranger.
A lot of it I would say’s is some AI BS . Like the part about the shifter. Total BS least as far as 2026 goes, and how it works, etc. etc.
‘Curious though about some of the other stuff.
‘Pretty sure most if not all of it is AI BS.

Already tired of trying to distinguish what is AI BS and what is real these days.
Sad thing is AI is just getting started. I am afraid in a couple years we won’t be able to tell fact from AI generated fiction. Lol

Curious what you guys think about this one.

The color of the truck in the thumbnail is a clue, as I don't think Ford has that color, anywhere.

I am continually pissed off that Ford hasn't offered the 2.7L and Fx4 in the XL trim. Their excuse that the XL is only a work truck and doesn't need those options is complete corporate horseshit, of course.
That would be pretty close to a perfect truck right there. With the obvious addition of the bed step (which every trim should have as standard and do in all other markets).
