I'm just going to quite myself here because this may be a "asked and answered" situation.

T6 has been around since 2010. If this new Ranger is to debut by MY 2019 that means the platform itself will more than likely not be T6. The "New for US" will be just that new, not just the current Global Ranger. So it may not be strictly a "clean sheet" design, but it will be pretty close.
