I love competition, and was planning on waiting for the Ranger reveal until my Camry unexpectedly died last year, but now that it is revealed what do you think makes it competitive? It seems to me it is dead last for looks, and other than offering a V6 (with almost identical performance values to the Colorado’s 4cyl) and 10 speed, doesnt seem to have much noteworthy offerings.

Ranger’s rear seats fold though haha.
Well, i'd say competitive, from a powertrain/tech/interior design standpoint compared to the twins. I don't see anything here that would sway my purchase given my GM bias. It's competitive, not class leading. The fact that GM stuck with the same exact 2nd gen rear window assembly including the manual rear window sucks (reeks of old GM) when everyone else will be offering power. Not a huge deal. Agreed the exterior is dead last. They at least matched what GM is doing w/their engine lineup and exceeded it on the top end. I think this will please Ford fans but might not win anyone else over.
