NAIAS - Ford under wraps

http://www.autonews.com/article/201...at-ford-top-marque?cciid=email-autonews-annow

4:36 mark. Ford display curtained off and behind doors!

I'm not sure you go to this level of hiding for one vehicle, but GT500, Ranger, and Bronco at one show? Hmmm. I'm just guessing but I will be there on the 18th for Industry day.

Knowing Hackett? A Prius competitor, a refreshed Mustang with a 1.6L Ecoboost from the Fiesta, and the new F150...what we thought was the Ranger.



Okay, I can guess everyone has realized by now I HATE this guy. :lol:

I couldn't quite tell

Hopefully he hasn't been around long enough to impact current state products (MY19). I know he has a preference for "current" vs. gas. Pun intended. I hope you're wrong and I'm right.

Maybe a 1.6L hybrid F150.

1.6L GT500

Jokes aside, a 2.3L 350tq 4cyl hybrid would really get my attention in an f150.

With the electric assist it would be 450tq+

So the ballpark of the current 3.5 Ecoboost, hut would be a turd once the electric motors stop helping at highway speeds.

Would you also be in the market for a 1.6L GT500 hybrid too? :lol:

What lays beyond the vale...........

Hopefully it's a Ranger Raptor, bronco, and GT500 and Bullit !

Yeehaw - sounds lovely - an $80,000 pickup truck with a 4 cylinder engine and lots of complexity.

/sarcasm

You won't see anything (significantly) new for the truck for at least two years.

I'm expecting Ranger, Explorer, probably Focus, Bullitt and GT500**

**could be some time after NAIAS.

GT500 won't be at NAIAS. Bullitt is looking promising/certainty.

What happened to the bronco?
