New photos of left-hand drive future Ford Ranger mules reveal a bit more about Ford’s next-generation global small truck. The single and double cab versions seen in these photos appear to share a common wheelbase though the lumpy sheetmetal is strictly a placeholder for the future body-on-frame cab and cargo box we’ve yet to see.
