Decisions decisions.....what would you do?

[Blue Streak]

Since you have daily drivers I would keep the F250 (not knowing how it is equipped) but it is a real work horse. If you need a truck you got it. I owned a 92 F250 up in till 2013. Life changes & a move I decided to sell it, had 126,000 miles. At 10 mpg it was something that I didn't really need anymore. If not for the move even at 10 mpg I would probably still be driving it today. It was used more as just a second vehicle. But in the winter snows it was a beast.

I wish I had your problems.

Just curious what F250 has for a motor?

7.3L Powerstroke.

7.3L Powerstroke.

That makes it an even tougher decision. Great motor especially with the low mileage. Beautiful truck ?

Thanks. It is my favorite of any vehicle that I have ever owned.

Build a bigger garage. Problem solved.

Pretty clear from where I sit….keep the F250. That’s a no brainer

That has been on the table as well. One can never have enough garage space, especially here where it hails frequently. I currently have 3 stalls, but when a storm is coming I can actually get all 4 vehicles inside. It is a tight fit, but it is better than getting them beat up.

Sell the Jeep. Sell the Escape. And yes sell the F250. Great vehicle it may be but it is now 23 years old. Shit is going to happen.

Keep the Ranger! And drive it.

And then go buy a Mustang GT just for fun. Or a Vette. Or a Porsche GT3. Or a.... or a....

@ NeilP
In your first post you wrote " As I get older, I find myself thinking about downsizing " so it sounds like a state of mind thing not a financial thing, ( I'm just guessing there obviously).
If those vehicle make you happy owning them i would keep them and try to overcome the state of mind or the reality of 'needing' them.
I say this because i own 4 vehicles that i don't drive much ( a '15 Camaro RS & '23 Camaro SS,
a '23 Chevy Equinox daily driver, and the '19 Ranger and next spring/summer i will be shopping for a 7th Gen model Corvette.
Now i could clearly get away with one or two, but i can afford the cost of the 4 , i don't need them in practicality but i want them i enjoy working and driving them as a hobby of sorts and get a bit of satisfaction doing those projects, going to meets & shows they are my sort of drug, LOL
I realize and admit that it is not the most practical thing to own these where i'm putting on roughly 13,000 mile per year spread randomly over the 4 but i do it cause i can.
You have some nice vehicles that appear to be well kept, just make sure you'll be just as happy without them as you are with them.
Good Luck.

Can't sell the Jeep! The boys would be very disappointed.

I can totally relate to having to keep the doggies in mind! That's why I originally bought my Mountaineer back in 2003, we had Labrador Retrievers I showed. I still have that vehicle too although we don't have dogs anymore.

Normally you would look at needs. Does payload, towing difference dictate you keep one over the other? Given you do not use either I'm not sure what you want us to say. If you don't need a truck and would rather have the money, sell them both.

Anyone want to bet on if the jeep sees jeep use?

Screw everyone...........buy 3 more vehicles !!! You have the 4....get 3 more so you have a different one for each day of the week !!!
