Well, today was the day of reckoning.

I got offered stupid money for my truck, the caveat being that they would keep my aftermarket add-ons.

This was above the number I had set for myself and probably above what I could've sold the aftermarket stuff for after returning the truck to stock.

And.................................










I kept my Ranger.

When it came down to it, I just liked it too much to let it go.

At least that itch has now been scratched and the itch relief creme is apparently spelled R A N G E R.

yeah, I feel ya. I have very specific wants/needs, and I wouldn't be able to replace it, so they would need to give me stupid money, and they weren't even close. I usually keep cars a long time, but if PHEV comes out then I will buy that for my long haul truck

They offered the money because you have the damper. All things being equal, $50 for a few thousand more....muhahahahah Too bad Al (@Texasota ) doesn't see that benefit...;) See what you did Dave? (@AzScorpion) ... let the whining begin!!!:lipssealed:

Funny you say that, because when they were looking at my truck they opened the tailgate and the guy was like "Niiiice!" :sunglasses:

Still can't get an offer on my '21 online anywhere. So...taking it over to my local Ford dealer this afternoon to see what they'd offer out of curiosity. If I can walk away with $5,000+, I might just let it go. Been thinking about just driving my fun car for the summer, save up for a larger down payment, then get back in the truck market in the fall/winter when things are hopefully stabilizing, but who really knows. While I don't hate the Ranger by any means, it does leave me still desiring a few features that I went without.
As a follow-up (for anyone who cares lol), my closest dealer only offered $34,000. Considering it's cleaner now than when I picked it up brand new, and still has less than 4,000 miles on it, I walked away. Thinking about trying some other larger dealers in the area.

Check into a KBB instant cash offer.

Mine was $2k higher than Carvana or Vroom.

Although what color comes to mind when you hear the word cactus?
To be expected from a CJDR dealer...

I think the huge offers are at their plateau. The offer on my 2021 was only $30,000.
No thanks.
