    I feel for them that bought Rangers. At the Ford dealership where I used to work the mechanics used to laugh about all the recalls the new 2018 Rangers were getting before they ever made it to the show rooms. That crap turbo Eco boost 4 was junk as well. Seen them blowing up in Escapes with less than 20K. People don't realize those Turbo charged engines require more maintence than conventional engines and if neglected I have seen $3000 repair bills. Keep your Tacoma's. You'll be better off for doing so. There is nothing about any of the Ford products that interest me. I even drove a Raptor and Mustang GTs. I used to laugh when an older Crown Vic would come in and think to myself now that was a car. It rode like one used too.

    As someone that would rather buy cheap Ford stock than own a cheap Ford, thanks for the good news.

    Looking at the chart I'd say the Ranger is growing sales, not total units sold against toyota, Taco still is selling more.
    It was on my list and I test drove it. I seriously considered it. It did have a good feeling engine and transmission. The ride and interior design not as good. Then I did some research on the 2.3 eco boost in other Ford's. I decided no thanks.
