Technically a bunch of the Ford cosworth’s along with the 190e cosworth or e30 m3 were all production. Sure maybe didn’t sound as good as full race spec versions but you can say the same about a bunch of other engines variants.

Every cosworth 4cyl from Ford or Mercedes, Ken Block’s millington engine in his Mk2 escort, basically every rally car, BMW s14 and m12....
“cheap”
With the limiter removed one of these will probably do 191 stock. The m156 is far more than its numbers suggest and the gearing is damn near perfect.
Eh, kinda of an average price and you can gain a few model years for very little extra money and get a few tweaks they made along the way like mountain mode, stator bearing update (its plastic and known to fail on earlier than mid 2013 cars), etc.
“The Auto industry simply isn’t moving”
Yup it’s mostly completely business as usual at all of our plants. If Ford/GM/FCA don’t stop running the suppliers cannot either and at this points it’s probably too late with how fast it’s spreading here in Michigan.
Sometimes the people who give the most to the motor sports world aren’t the ones winning the most.
Neither my Renegade or Colorado had or have headlights with poor aiming and I can and have directly compared both of them to a friends 99 camry. I never said ALL modern headlights suck or anything along the lines of “they don’t make em like they used too”.
Aligning headlights isn’t going to change the beam pattern.
On my Colorado I have the “upgraded” projector halogens where some lower spec ones have reflector halogen low beams but if you want hids or leds you have to buy the badge engineered canyon, So the Colorado is not sold with even a decent headlight option. My Colorado is a zr2 which has no gmc equivalent so I have no…
I have had a 2017 Jeep renegade and 2018 Chevy colorado and have been in a 2016 Grand Cherokee with halogen “base lights” along with a few rentals with halogen base spec lights.
I’m not sure what they expected, every segment has ballooned in the last 20 years when they last designed the Ranger that was sold here.
Every item you just listed is applicable to the entire mid size truck market. They apply to the tacoma, Colorado, ranger and frontier.
It does better on fuel than the v6 Colorado While making similar power and better torque and isn’t any bigger than the Colorado either. I’ve driven a 2020 explorer with the 2.3L and I loved it.
Well, it’s not a suspension system, it’s steering and if it’s purely mechanical then again I dont think it would violate the rules but I am far from an expert. It could just be a linkage connected to the wheel moving the steering rack front/back changing the effective length of the steering linkage.
I don’t understand the multiple comments now comparing this to the escape. Its not even remotely close. Ones based on a midsize truck and the other is based on compact sedan.
Huh? What is wrong with the ranger? And how is this in any way comparable to the focus based escape?
These don’t rust in places that are easily seen. The rockers are gone on this car and likely the “frame” rails in them. None of the photos in the listing show where these rust.
