Completely unrelated to the Mazda Truck we called Courier and then Ranger.

If you check US websites the Ranger has been around for over 10 years, with people wanting it back. The above images were obtained from American websites. Last year the Ranger Wildtrack was available from Ford US.
I think you'll find that any T6 Rangers in the USA would be private imports form possibly near by Mexico..

Ranger has been sold in the USA for lot longer than that but was at its peak in the early 2000s
when sales were over 350,000 a year but Mid Sized trucks are now a shadow of those days,
it's not worth Ford re entering the market when it can get a better return for the funding in some
other products like SUVs - are you going to pull funding from to resurrect Ranger?
