Yeah that has never been in doubt, ford even said as much clearly several times. People are just stupid and don't listen

Don’t disagree with the in doubt statement. Just never seen a public admission direct from Ford previously.

Some truck trivia: Prior to the 5g Ranger, what was the only other truck sold in America with a turbocharged, gasoline powered 4 cyl motor?

1986 - 1987 Toyota SR5 Pickup Truck. The 2.2L turbocharged motor was rated at 135 net hp.

They have made it known multiple times such as when they announced the international model of the 6 g

I wonder how many people ordered 2023 Rangers and don't realize what they're getting.
I think a lot. I have seem a few posts on 6g forum. Even worse - dealers that (a)ordered a 2023 and didn't know they were still 5g or (b)purposely misled the customer to get the 2023 order in.

The problem is that the 2024's will be delayed till late 2025 because of a shortage of Fargenschnicles, which as you know are a part of the various nurocles that are produced only in a small town in lower eastern, but west of, WunHungLo, China. This may carry over and your 2024 may not be delivered till 2026.
Since there are no Fargenschnicle factories anywhere else, and none are planned, the vehicles that use them will be built and stock-piled at various stockyards across the US.
Experts have been warning of this happening cause at one time, the biggest Fargenschnicle factory was located in downtown Detroit, but moved many years ago overseas.
Now we are dependent on, and getting screwed , by, WunHungLo....
