Later in the model year. No date has been announced

"Late Fall", likely means December is my guess. May be in Job2 which earliest is speculated to be end of November to December, but likely will slide with Job1 and could push to next year easily.

My dealer had said Job 2 would probably be late January unless it changes.
Like Job 1 start keeps moving.
2.7 is late fall and a Job 2 build.
I will be getting notified by dealer when 2.7 is available to order

I wouldn't even hold my breath on the 2.7 for 2024 .... just my opinion

nobody can make the decision for you. Do you have a specific requirement for the V6 that is a dealbreaker for you if you don't get it? Does it just sound good in theory having a bigger motor? The 2.3 base will be available earlier and cost less initially and over time (maintenance) and get better MPG. Do your own cost/benefit analysis on paper and the answer should be clear.

Your opinion is noted.
If it is 2025 so be it.
It is not like I need a new Ranger in 2024 but I would like one.
If you need a new Truck ordering one will drive you nuts waiting.

The 2.7 will be available for Job 2. However, Job 2 gets delayed with Job 1, so it will definitely be sometime next year.
I personally would only get the V6 if I was towing heavy (6,500lbs+) all of the time. The 2.3L has proven plenty capable, and reliable thus far.

^this^ My Maverick 2.0 has 250hp and plenty quick and capable. Compared to the 4 Rangers I've owned before, 2 4 cyl & 2 6 cyl - these modern turbos are like in a different universe!

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 will delay the inevitable oil leaks and turbo failure.

I would cautiously say BEST case scenario is November or even December- and that is if there is no strike. BTW, is that V6 a Twin Turbo? If so, you have 2 more cylinders as well as 2 turbos to worry about failure and lifetime maintenance on. If I end up trading up my Maverick for a Ranger at a later date, I will look for a Ford approved and warrantied up-tune kit that I've heard gets you to ~300 hp + possibly a cat back system. That puts you near the performance of the 2.7. My 1st choice is probably a NIssan Frontier King Cab S that comes standard with a naturally aspirated direct inject 310 hp V-6 and no turbo issues to deal with at all. Lower MPG is the tradeoff
