Am I correct? And the casual buyer is probably not going to realize that the current Ranger has been around for 8 years in other parts of the world. He/she is only going to know that it's new here in the US, and that will be just fine with them. Besides, look at the Nissan Frontier. It's been around in its current form since at least about 2006; and Nissan is still selling every single one of them they can build! People buy it because of its low price. By not doing major styling updates every 3 years like everyone else does, Nissan is able to undercut the Frontier's competition by at least $5000.
