I think a new rotary like the renisis needs a truck platform like a modern REPU.Anyone agree?

Of coarse I agree, but Ford would never go for a rotary in a Ranger.

No matter how much we all agree that a new REPU is a good idea, I dont think the renesis has enough low-end torque to please the majority of truck buyers.

Yeah.. I have thought about it.. to and the only thing is that the truck customers would be looking for that low end torque.

It'd get better mileage too!



Though, imagine when they start slapping flwomaster on like they do with every other truck.
