That guy does a good review. Did you notice the tailgate has a built in damper? That will add some horsepower. I wish mine had that dual console like my Lincoln does.

Yes, BTW Ford Canada has the tail gate damper gas shock available as part #. Interesting that in Canada the XLT version has the dual analog RPM and speedo display. And the Lariat has the mixed speedometer in the centre and digital on the side.

Is that Mazda basically a Ranger, rebadged? I’m in Court and can’t watch the video.

No Not Quite You will see in the video the Ranger is more refined and has a better drive train.

The Mazda has air vents in the rear seat, man, I'd love to have those.

Not anymore, with this new model they switched to an Isuzu platform. Their loss really, IMHO.

Obijack, do I recognize that username from the mazdaspeedforums?!

And this Mazda is based on the izusu dmax.

That may be left for debate! Nator was cool. I've still got the gen 1 and an e36 m3, ditching both this winter.

Have a Merry Christmas/happy holiday!
