Big time. Truck prices are nuts. You can buy an F350 dually XLT way way WAY cheaper than these idiots are paying for their King Ranch and Plantinum F150's. Just makes no sense to me to pay what Ford asks for those high end trucks. And in my mind, even XLT pricing is bad, Lariat forget about it and Tremor? Hell no. Could I buy one? Yep. Would I spend that money on an F150? Hell no. If I go full size at some point it will totally be an F350. Way more truck for the buck... and if you spec it right, cheaper than the majority of the fancy ass F150's running the roads.

But as long as people pay it (Don't get me started on the dumbasses with the 8 year loans etc.), Ford will keep pricing accordingly.

I messaged Ford what I believed was a very simple question on the Ranger6G forum and got the canned answer.
“Hello Steve, please keep in contact with your preferred dealership. They will be in the best position to address your questions and concerns at this time.
XXXXX
Ford Social Media Team”.

Absolutely useless. What’s even more useless is expecting “my preferred”dealer to know the answer.
Sounds like, I am from the government, and I am here to help.

Back when I used to traffic the Mustang forums heavily, we had a VERY active official Ford customer service rep assign Mustang as a brand that has a HUGE enthusiast following compared to their other Ford products. It was at the point where everyone knew her name and would tag her in conversations. She actually helped a lot of folks out back then. Nowadays, I wouldn't doubt if Ford still does this; they use some A.I. tech to cover it.
true. when i had one of the mustangs with the coyote engine tap the rep emailed me and called to get me connected to the right folks at FoMoCo. the rep was great. Fords guy was a butt face lol.

Often wondered about Ford watching these forums. While my truck has been stellar, a couple of members here have had a few minor complaints.:LOL: Never any sort of response or input from Ford.

Yet check out this post from the Maverick forum. (Not a member there. This item hit my news feed.) If I was one of you guys with truck issues I'd join the Maverick Forum and flat out ask Ford why they aren't in this forum and responding to issues. Probably won't accomplish anything, but it's a way to squeeze them a bit and do so publicly.

Or is it a fake account set up to look like Ford? I don't know. But figured I'd share it.
