That's just the 2.2 liter engine. That's why it's cheap.

Actually, good deal if you really want or need the 4x4 (few people really do) but not the fuel consumption penalty of a 3.2 liter engine.

Hindi kaya underpowered niky, making it thirsty?

Saw the colorado at Megamall and a blue ranger yesterday. Sa exterior looks at sa cabin lay-out lamang talaga ranger.

it won't be. the 2.2 375NM/150HP is almost as powerful as the previous 3.0 380NM/156HP

If we talk of interior, no match ang colorado sa ranger, not even close. But the exterior is subjective, 'coz i've seen people stare at this truck, and these are not your ordinary car nuts. Ranger's exterior is kinda on the safe side while colorado is kinda quirky. Kumbaga sa girl, ranger is the it girl, colorado is the anti-it.

Not at all. The thing with diesel engines is that despite having really low power figures, they naturally have lots of low-end torque, which is really all that's necessary to get the 2-ton truck moving.

Our 1991 L200 that weighs 1700 kg but only has 70 horsepower (prolly closer to 50 now) pulls pretty well at city speeds, and still nets around 9-10 km/L.

Wow...its a steal then compared to its competitors with the same offering, 4x4 m/t nasa 1.3-1.5M..and ancient models at that.

sa exterior. Ford is the safest since simple lang, not too fancy, and that's the beauty of it. While the colorado has more interesting curves.

pero interesting pa din sa akin yung cummins powered Foton thunder, hilux body hehe. Hope they bring it here soon at mareview na nila niky and co

Ranger 4x4 2.2 XL has only 125hp...because its mid tuned engine, not sure if its turbo is vgt or not...if only they retain the hi tuned 2.2 engine on there 4x4 then sana ito kunin ko...so sad
