Have you tried Craigslist or Facebook Marketplace?

My dealer made a big show about how they were going to "give me the best price for my 2006 Ranger". Then they offered me $1,500, even though it has a $4,000 private party value. I listed it on Craigslist and sold it the same day for double in cash.

I assume your Ranger will have lots of interest.
I will have to check that out

I am selling my 2004 Tundra double cab. I like the size of the 1st Gen Tundra, but hate the gas mileage. Looking forward to the tech and MPG upgrades with the Ranger, while keeping a reasonable size for city and garage parking.

I will be doing the same with my 2000. V8 growl will be a thing of the past, but ahhhh, gas mileage again. One thing good tho, our Tundra's are still worth big $, and that puts a strong down payment. Nice truck!

Sold my 2006 Ford Ranger on Sunday. Got in a car accident Monday in my Toyota (no one hurt thankfully). Went from 2 vehicles to none.

Insurance hooked me up with a rental, I specifically requested a full-size pickup. They gave me a new Chevy Silverado 1500.

Forgot I had to go into downtown SF today. She fits (barely), and people question why we pick a mid-size over a full-size.

Tesla Model 3 for scale.

Parked in a compact car parking spot makes it even worse!

In San Francisco every space might as well be a compact car space. The worst part is that garage only accommodates vehicles 6'5" or less, so no lifted trucks.

I bet overall the Ranger is practically the same size and has the same capabilities.

Not quite... I could tow 10k, and was 5.4 with 300 hp and 365 tq stock, but I had a Edge programer, a exhaust and intake in it that would make it fly. It was basically a Mustang with a bed. Very fun truck. Best mileage I ever got was maybe 17 mpg though.

Thinking of trading in my 2018 Nissan Frontier Pro 4x.
Previous vehicle was a 2013 Ford Focus ST3.
Ranger has all the tech plus more I loved in my ST, plus everything I love about driving a Truck.

I will be replacing a1998 Ranger XLT Super Cab with a new Ranger Lariat. Even though my 20 year old Ranger has been a great truck, 246,000 miles with no major repairs, I just want a new ride. Ordered the Lariat Nov, 17th and hope to have a VIN in several weeks.
