Anyway, I applaud Ford in its work with turbos.
yes a hauing truck (not towing truck) - it will likely be restricted to single cab basic equipment work trucks .. for the roofer, or electrician etc a truck with the capability of a Ranger, but with bigger size.

something like that - it will definitely be a limited use engine - but a high effiicency one.
