Just might hurt sales ?

I've always heard these vehicles are crap, but I guess there's a partnership and ford may use this motor

 

Has resale value been mentioned? Ford not even close

 

Resale values on full size trucks are not far off from one another, that's including Tundras.

 

Part of this is due to the sheer number of vehicles produced.

If someone is looking for a used Tacoma, there are far fewer choices out there than for a used F150 so the dealer can demand a higher price.

If a dealer has a high price on a used F150, the buyer can literally go down the street to any of a dozen other places to get one at a better price.

The Tundra numbers are not that high, but the Tundra just doesn't sell as well as the big 3.

 

Nah. Everyone is always hooting and hollering about a diesel, especially seen a lot of people claiming they were sold on the Colorado having a diesel...but if you look at the sales, they actually aren't selling too well.

 

Yup, when the dealer holds their inventory at a higher price with little room to move, used car sales are based on that. If they let their inventory go for $12k off MSRP, such as ford, then all used Fords will be priced significantly lower than new MSRP.

 

I don't think a full size F150 in any configuration is going to hurt Tacoma sales. It will scavenge sales from 3/4 ton or other 1/2 ton sales.

The only thing that will significantly hurt Tacoma sales is Toyota.


Or possibly a tweet from Trump.

 

WTF is with 3rd gen threads

 

Haha, theres a few bad apples. A couple have already been removed, might see another shortly.

beat the hell out of her 160k miles and never a single problem

 

Sold my last Ranger at 174k and it was still running great.

 

I've had two Fords, one went 250k miles with no issues, the F-250. My Explorer went out at 125k miles, complete failure of the transmission, replacement was worth more than the car so just sold it.

I would have considered a Ranger over the Tacoma if they were available, atleast it would have been a really good contender.

 

Don't feed the trolls. When everyone just smiles and nods, they move on.

 

Wish i had better luck with mine.

 

Mine was great too till 135k then needed a transmission rebuild

 

My 94 Ranger gave me fits at ~100,000mi with the emissions crap. Dealer was no help. Made me learn that OBD1 system through and through. After diagnosing and changing all the bad electronics it ran great until I traded it in at 160,000.

 

The 3.0 V6 diesel "Lion" is currently in the LR with an 8speed and rated 22/28/25 with 443lb-ft of torque. I am sure Ford will tweak it for their vehicles + add the 10 speed. They may hit that 30mpg mark. Im guessing $5k for the diesel option.

 

I drove a 1990 Ford Ranger for 14 years before I bought my Tacoma

I am currently in my basement and on wifi

 

When I'm in the market for a truck, I'll cross shop between a diesel 150 and a Taco if both are still the same.

 

Had to dig out an old pic, dont make fun of my Splash model (i removed decals)
