The Ford Ranger PJ/PK and BT-50 UN are Mazda-derived vehicles produced between 2006 and 2011 with a facelift in 2009. The Ranger name replaced the old Courier name[1] used in Australia and New Zealand and the BT-50 name replaced the older Mazda B Series of Utes[2]. Both the Mazda and Ford variants share the same mechanical components including the same 2.5l or 3.0l turbo diesel common-rail injected engines as well as the same driveline including the 5 Speed Manual or 5 Speed Auto transmission.[3]
