I think ford will get alot of existing RWD terri customers singning up to be honest to grab a new one with teh incentive of the new gearbox etc.

The Corporate 6 Speed is made in America, and I am still skeptical as to whether it will appear on the Higher Spec Models, mainly because it isn't as good as the ZF, and we all know what the ZF has done for Falcon and Territory. It isn't very often that Ford goes backwards in terms of specification or technology.
I was also under the impression that the AJD-V6 came with a ZF or nothing. Why waste all that money on developing an engine for Territory and a unique transmission, when every other Longitudinal use has had it coupled with the ZF. It just seems like throwing away good money after bad.
