right across every Ranger for every market, all the little details that you into good design for all markets,
not just domestic US design made to fit everywhere else.

They sell a heap of Rangers in RHD. Ford are not GM trying to sell RHD pick ups in 3 countries. Not sure on the total number out of the 180 countries that Ranger sells in that are RHD but it's more than you'd imagine. The biggest Rest of World markets are RHD, Thailand and Australia. Ditching RHD would instantly kill off their biggest Ranger markets outside the US. Not going to happen.
What is it with people fascination with killing off Ford Australia? It's like a sport here.
