Best hope is that next Gen Ranger has access to hybrids or PHEVs to balance against diesel sales.
I've got 2 years to go on our Trafic Crewvan and want to get back in an auto something...so hopefully your "best hope" is our reality.

And on the note of a Ranger 2.0L 4 cylinder vs the 3.2L 5 cyl...for anyone that has gone from a 5 to 4 cyl engine will know that the smoothness and all round better refinement is not to be underestimated. When you switch between the two a few times in the same day it becomes so noticeable and much more comfortable when driving for extended periods. It's also one reason I really enjoy our V6 diesel Territory which is smoother again..
