I like the 10sp trans but not MT like the Tacoma about to be introduced. Where did they get the idea for the bumper step? Genius! 
3.0 is Raptor only but  . Cross your fingers this forces GM to bring the 6.2 to a top trim ZR2-R if you will.

Looks like they followed suit with a hood prop rod instead of real struts too haha.
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.
