It looks like FORD is getting rid of another truck.
Anyone heard about this...?

What does this mean for North American buyers looking for a small or fuel-efficient pickup? Kuzak reaffirmed his message from earlier this year: The Ford F-150 half-ton pickup will be that choice.
"Current Ranger buyers are using their trucks as affordable transportation," Kuzak said. "We have small cars and crossovers, the Transit Connect [van] and seven-passenger C-Max coming next year to meet their needs. For customers that still need a pickup, the F-150 has an all-new engine lineup for 2011 that will be 20 percent more fuel-efficient [than the lineup it replaces] with best-in-class torque and fuel economy."
Side question: Since the Ranger is about 1000 lb. lighter, will it get better mileage than the ST? (4.0L / 4:10 gears, etc..).
