But all kidding aside it looks fun. Assume the us version is going to have more motor? Maybe the 350 hp 2.3 from the focus RS?
It's competing with the anemic GM trucks. Ford might as well castrate their version as well.

I guess power numbers haven't been released, but the base Ranger gets the 2.3L four as the sole engine option. That's good for 280 hp in the Explorer and 310 in the Mustang, so 280 would be a good bet.

Turning the wick up to 325 or 350 would be easy enough to do using existing parts; I'd be kind of surprised if that's not what they do.
