Oh look, Ford is making another shit UV with a pretend bed, so innovative.
Will start at $30k with the mandatory fees, before the dealers "value add" it another $15k.
My 2006 Ranger is the last Ford I will ever own.
"The public doesn't want EVs" -Ford after fucking up again
One thing I will say is I wager they will have a midgate option, which could promote the bed to vaguely serious compared to a Maverick, in some situations. They have a few times mentioned surfboard in the bed, and double downed in their sort of reveal trailer, where they clearly show it laying down with tailgate up.
May be a decent compromise in a truck market obsessed with crew cabs.
Why won't they make a basic body on frame truck with a 6' bed? I want it.
