    They should also call it the F100 Ranger so they can claim sales in the F series bucket.

    I think F100 Ranger is also a throwback. Which are popular these days.

    Yup. You are correct. And yes thats a good idea. I snagged an F100 badge years ago from the wreckers for my buddies Ranger project. Even though it was from a full size it was still a nice cast piece

    Half these dum-dums think that Ranger image is the actual body style of the new Ranger. It's not. It's a global Ranger running the new Ranger power train. It's very common for automakers to do that. Toyota tested the 3.5 with the gen 2 body and there were also spy shots of that. READ THE ARTICLES DUMMIES!

    68. Easy way to tell is the corner vent windows. 68 had them and 69 do not

    Maybe you should consider something with more HP, like a 2017 Sienna.

    I see the same thing on the other car forums I frequent. People never seem to understand that test mules are not final production models.

    you have no idea.... used vehicles are a great option to buying vehicles. most dealerships that have used cars are from customers who dont want to hassle with selling it private party.... you know that one time a crack head met up with you and tried low balling you on your car? most people would rather get it done right then and there... that statement saying that all used cars are bad is a ignorant one.

    I never said all cars, but you go ahead and read things how you want. Will not get into a pissing match over an opinion. Have a great day.

    Does that help your ego any. I know you like the attention but from what I see the attention was not in your favor like always.

    He's a terrible troll. Cant even take it if you call him out on shit. He'll just block/ignore you instead like he has done with me and other people.

    He craves the attention a lot. I guess the teacher didn't call on him enough when he raised his little hand.

    My thoughts are.... never buy a used truck let alone a 4 x 4. Used cars and trucks on a dealer lot are brought in by people that really can't sell it privately. Reason being is it has issues bigger than the owner wants to deal with so they trade it in because no one would buy it or it would be to difficult to convince a private party to take said vehicle. Buying a used car or truck usually means buying someone else's problem. On a 4 x 4 it's extremely common for people who don't know how to wheel or are learning how and most likely have abused it and never serviced it. So once traded in and the dealer or mechanic finally lays a wrench on it, you got odds that 1 in 50 may be good mechanics, but they don't swing a magic wrench. So there will always be issues with it... big or small. Just my $.02

    My bad I thought you meant all used vehicles in general by how you worded it..... :notsure:
