Just picked this up at the airport. Edition January 2015. When I land back in Melbourne I'll let you know what I find.

Yep, a Ranger in a wagon body.

Wonder if they have fixed any of the issues suffered by the Ranger?

Unfortunately I think my next work car will be a ranger. Wonder if I could talk them into the wagon....?

Think they look like a good looking wagon, seven seats, great ground clearance and practical wading depth. I recon they'll sell like hot cakes if ford prices them appropriately! With a rear locker they'd have potential to be a sound family wagon with good off road ability. Looking forward to taking one for a spin!


Cheers,

I think I prefer a 4wd that looks and behaves like a 4wd. Looks a bit too like an SUV for my liking. Trying to be everything and not standing out as anything.

But each to their own, I am sure there will be plenty of folks buying it and that will be all Ford cares about.

What's the verdict Scarps
The verdict is: the article on the Vic High Country was pretty good.

I am the same.  I want a 4wd not a car.
