They are built in China at a Getrag-Dongfeng partnership facility. It's basically where cheap Getrags are built. As with the MIC tops and Bilstein shocks, Ford grinds their suppliers down to offering the absolute cheapest product possible so Getrag supplies Ford accordingly.

That’s a transfer case caused problem not a transmission problem.
Are they bringing the 7MT back for 2025?

This article suggests that the 7MT is coming back, but I don’t see it anywhere in the 2025 order guide changes.
It’s also confusing to me that the 7MT is still listed in the 2024 build and price.
Hopefully someone knows what’s going on because I sure don’t.

7MT remains the standard transmission for Base, Big Bend, and Badlands. Outer Banks and Stroppe are automatic-only.

I haven't seen any manuals manufactured in 2023 or 2024. All the Heritage models at my dealership that were ordered with 7MTs came with automatics.
They are numerous on this forum, not least on the "scraping/grinding noise" thread over in the Issues forum. My '24 is coming with a 7MT. They have been offered continuously.
2021 FE 2dr 87k on auto, 10r60 never misses a shift.
Also , 2024 Ranger raptor 3.0 10r60 11k miles, 6000 of that towing trailers. works flawlessly.

that probably why ford switched to 10r60 on ALL 2024+ rangers
My only problem with the auto has been software related. The shift strategy in 4L is atrocious. I've taken it to the dealer for "updated" programming but it hasn't really made a difference. The shifting between 1st and 2nd will be either extremely slow, causing a temporary neutral drop and engine flare up, or it will attempt to rev match on the downshift and actually accelerate the vehicle instead of engine braking, which is the desired effect. All in all it makes technical wheeling rather sketchy if you don't anticipate this behavior.
