With the Ranger bein as popular as it is I honestly don't know why they would even consider not making it anymore. I've been a member of RangerPowerSports.com since 2001 & there have been the same rumors floatin around for a loooooong time now.

The picture of the truck you posted looks way too much like a Nissan.

That's just horrible

I agree. I like the front end shot, but from that one particular angle it has Frontier written aaaaalllll over it.

I think the color is bad but overall I don't mind it. What don't you like? The headlights?

Looks like the guy who designs the lower bumper moulding for the fog lights forgot to actually look at the fog lights to see how big they were. Also the swooping lines of the lights do NOT match the blocked off front grille.

I always find new re-designs take a little time to sink in.

Well, this is the European model and I'm sure our version will be a little different.

Notice the same lights and grill but a better overall look. This might be closer.

I'm sure there's some sort of redesign comin up. Hell it's went basically unchanged since 2000. I just hope for my sanity it's not any of the pictures that have been floatin around the internet rumor mill of all the european garbage

That's better than the baby-blue up top.... I kind of like it. Have to see them on the road though before I make final judgement.

I agree with you, it does look a lot like a Nissan. In fact when I saw the picture I blew it up to make sure it was a Ranger, which it is.
