[QUOTE="SoonerP226, post: 2375237, member: 26737"] The 6.4 replaced the 6.0 in '08, and the 6.4 has since been replaced by the Ford-designed 6.7 Scorpion. The rather unhappy divorce between Ford and Navistar would pretty much kill any Ford mill based on a Navistar design, but Ford was working on a small diesel for the F150 somewhere around that displacement. They shelved it because the ROI wasn't there and EcoBoost pretty much fills the diesel niche in that class at a fraction of the cost. (I remember reading about a V6 based on the Navistar V8, but I think it was aimed at the heavier classes; I think the one destined for the F150 was a clean-sheet design from Ford.) If the Bronco ever makes it back into production, it's exceedingly unlikely that it would not have at least one EB mill. Diesel is an almost guaranteed no-go, but if they did use one, it's far more likely that they'd use the 3.2 I5 that's already been federalized for the upcoming Transit van rather than going through the certification on a new mill.
