Farewell my friends

[Chris M]

Seen several Tacos in that color - think they call it army green

I wish Ford had a green offering...

It’s ugly and has a wheezy v6 but if you like that’s all that matters lol.

Toyota's dirt brown, and forest green, look like they forgot to mix them into some form of camo. Unfortunately, I can't tell you what I really think they look like, but it reminds me of a diaper!

Same! I would get a green Ranger in a heartbeat, if they did it right of course. But our luck they'd probably do some wacky off the wall "modern" color like the Renegade's I see every once in awhile.

Nooooooooooo!

Yeah, I remember that one/him. His was a good color, almost the matte army green look. I'm too lazy/incompetent/cheap to do that to mine. haha But cool that someone did. Hopefully the Ranger will get whatever green color the Bronco is rumoured to be getting.

I think that was @Stangman570

Here’s the thread...

It really did look good.

Well folks, as some of you know I came to the Ranger from a Jeep Wrangler JLU. The Ranger is an awesome truck. I spend a lot of time in the desert and it had done everything I've asked of it. It's quick, powerful, comfortable, decent economy. No complaints.
But, I missed my Jeep. Every time I saw one I was checking it out. I liked the pickup bed of the Ranger so I made the mistake of driving a Gladiator. I liked it much more than I thought I would. I bought it. Ricky Ranger is gone.

This is a great community. I'll stick my head in occasionally to say hello.
You all take care, stay safe and thank you.

I love Jeeps (I own one) but I just can’t get over the way a gladiator looks. Even the Jeep wave is not allowed to the gladiators. ? trying to talk the wife into a new 4 door JL rubicon for her, but her 2008 JK Rubi is just too solid and was 1/2 the price.I think a lift is the only thing that helps the Gladiator. I do love the interior on them though!

This is how it always starts...

Someone copies someone else

 

[Obijack]

If I were more into off-roading and less into towing/commuting/working I’d get a Mojave or Rubicon Gladiator.

I got an offer from Carvana for $3k more than I owe, I'm tempted to sell my topper and move on too.

 

[r1ch999999]

What are you thinking of moving on to?

No idea. I was driving home last night and my truck with 11k miles was rattling and creaking and I thought to myself “ I wonder what Carvana is offering?” And then I got an email this morning from them. Honestly I’m thinking about buying the cheapest certified used car I can find.

There will be a new green on the '22 Bronco. My guess is the Ranger will see it too as they're made in the same plant and share the same colors now.

I almost got one before the ranger. I wanted it bare bones with a manual and hard top. I'm a life long jeep guy, and I like the idea of the gladiator. I just couldn't get over the bed design / rear axle placement. In my opinion, they need a wheel and tire / lift to look decent. I have seen some lifted that I absolutely loved though. If I could have got the ford turbo 4 in it with jeeps manual trans, I would have been all over it haha. A guy can dream I guess.

I had checked with Carvana a few weeks ago when I started to think about the Gladiator and was not impressed with the offer. I did a couple thousand better just trading the Ranger in and got a $2318 sales tax credit on top of that.
Then yesterday I got an email from Carvana basically saying they were in need of vehicles and wanting me to "refresh" my offer.

Yeah, same here, well, except I didn't trade mine in. I did find a new 2020 Mustang Ecoboost for a decent price, I don't know if it's legit though.

FML
you only "thought" about Carvana, and then an email just shows up?
did you get the covid vaccine? there was a chip in it wasn't there??
we are doomed

I know, I thought the same thing. I think out loud a lot, so I might have said it to myself as I was driving home. Even if I did, I would have received the email 30 minutes after I said it.

It's scary how much our phones listen to us.
