They must have "contracted out" the back 1/2 to Europe.

I had a ford ranger that was a 4 cylinder with 8 spark plugs.
Ends up it was the Pinto engine and the only way to get it to pass CA emissions was to add another spark plug. Sure was a tight fit under the hood and almost IMPOSSIBLE to change out all the plugs..
