Point taken. But as a buyer seeking advice on a message board for buyers, I am interested in maximizing the value I receive in this particular transaction. This will likely come at the cost of the seller's profit margin (as a percent of the money exchanged though not necessarily a dollar value)...

Agree entirely. I hear this constantly. 1/2 tons are much more expensive than people seem to think. I have thought about this as well and a business I am involved with takes the same approach: 1/4 ton trucks for moving tools and people and 3/4 tons for towing, plowing and 'truck' work. Maybe...

I've been waiting 3+ months now and still have no build date for my loaded '23 Ranger XLT FX4 SCAB ($43k MSRP before X-Plan). I've since come into some money and a new track car I will be towing several times per summer - up to 12-14 hour highway trips. I know the Ranger can handle my tow rig...

About to deposit $1,000 to order a Supercab XLT w/ FX4 and tow package (plus some creature comforts). The dealer worked up the attached 'Preview Order' yesterday. I assume I'll sign a document similar to this tomorrow, though I want to add in writing that the X-Plan price will be honored at...

Thanks, very helpful. We'll see when I walk in ready with my deposit if they follow-through after telling me twice now over the past month they will do X-Plan on the order. If not, will have to re-think. I will get ask to get everything written-out and signed at the time of deposit, including...

Been holding off on buying a new vehicle for a couple years now. Money is no problem but I'm still shell-shocked that a daily driver 1/4 ton extended cab truck with 4x4, locking diff, and a decent set of options is going to cost me $35k. Inflation is what it is. Enough whining... I've done my...

Don't have my Ranger just yet but I just moved back to Maine a few months ago. Have previously lived in Portland, Waterville, a few other places. Currently in Brunswick. Great dirt bike trails in this state but not sure about full size vehicles.

I've poked around. Even the Taco guys are losing faith in the latest gen. If I could get a Gen 1 Taco new today, though, I know what I'd be buying.

Thanks. I don't care much about all the electronics / tech package or cosmetic features. As long as I have cruise control (non-adaptive), the only 'extras' that I really want are the sliding rear window (free-standing option), 110v AC (unclear if standard on XLT or requires XLT301A, which would...

Yep, I hate to have to buy right now but the new vehicle market is less crazily-priced than the used market. I've got a Cherokee XJ and 2010 Honda Odyssey but neither are in great shape and I end up spending a lot of time in the garage working on them. Haven't owned a new vehicle that's not...

I'm in the market for a mid-size 4x4 truck and want to have (1) off-road tires (from the factory) and (2) a locking rear differential. I'm not made of money and if I were, I'd be looking at full-size trucks even though I really don't need one. I live on a sometimes-plowed dirt road and am...

No idea how to convert my onenote page into text for the forum but the attached PDF I keep for reference might be helpful. I'm not sure why you would want to only use 16 frequencies when most radios on the market offer 128 memory slots at a very minimum, but for simplex work with non-hams, MURS...
