That would make sense. In many other markets the F150 won't be available exactly because the current Ranger can perform exactly the same tasks, having either the 2.5L Duratec (in my country it's only available as a flexfuel), a 2.2L Peugeot-designed 4-cylinder turbodiesel (here it's only available for fleet, gov't, farmers or commercial operators) or the same 3.2L straight-5 that is gonna be used in the Transit van back there.
