* Stunning concept truck is Ford’s first global debut in Thailand
* A versatile and practical vehicle in a tough, stylish package
BANGKOK, Thailand, November 24, 2005 – Ford Motor Company today forcefully drove home the importance of Asia, particularly Thailand, to its international plans by staging the world premiere of a stunning concept truck at the Thailand International Motor Expo in Bangkok.
Ford Asia Pacific Chief Designer Paul Gibson said the concept, dubbed 4-Trac, is a dynamic package that brings together Ford’s “tough truck” DNA with ideas that explore practical functionality, lifestyle and sporty uses for Ford trucks of the future.
“We have taken the typical pick-up truck and given it a lot more sophistication, style and purpose. It’s a workhorse that delivers on the ‘Built Ford Tough’ promise by offering true off-road capability, rugged features and durable aluminum surfaces. At the same time, owners will be proud to use it as stylish transport for their active families on weekends and holidays,” Mr Gibson said."

Well, everyone was griping and moaning when the ridgeline came out, saying that it wasn't a real truck and the only people that would buy it would be soccer moms. Well, kudos to ford for not rolling over and giving Honda that market. If someones gonna buy a "half truck" by God let 'em buy a Ford. It's called keeping your finger on the pulse of the market.

Okay, call me crazy, but I like this little truck! I wouldn't mind seing something like this on our shores. It sure would give me the option of a real mid-size 4 door pickup from Ford instead of the Explorer Sportrac. As it stands right now, I would rather get a Tacoma double cab or a Colorado crew-cab than the Sportrac.
