They should make a SINGLE drive train. A 4 cyl diesel. Plenty of torque for towing and would get mid-30s on the road. A scaled version of the 6 speed auto that is used with the BIG V8 in the super duty models.
No need to develop multiple drive trains....though much I suspect is 'off the shelf'.....But still and all? Might be able to bring it in at a reasonable price. Keep the content UP to ease the sting of the couple grand Premium for a compression ignition mill.
Ford has a diesel waiting in the wings in many non-USA markets.......
I won't buy it, though. I've had nothing but bad experience with FORD.....
Too much is never enough
