Of course I'd be keeping the Ranger though.

Larson Ford - Pre-Owned Inventory

My wife and I were checking out an F250 on the lot, but it had a few things wrong with it, so we left it there and started looking at the 150's. We test drove this truck and liked it, so we talked about the price. Got the dealer down $3000, to $21,000 out the door with taxes and registration.
The truck is a 2006 extended cab with 32,000 miles, power everything, tilt clumn, cruise control, cd radio, 4x4, 5.4 liter V8, clean inside and out; we're still waiting to find the gear ration. Sound like a good deal?

EDIT: SEE POST # 25

I'd like to keep the Ranger as a DD/trail truck, so we'll see what happens. The F150 will primarily be my wife's, until I can find her 66 Ford Bronco that she wants.

I saw that too, the whole truck is dirty in those photos, I can't believe they put the photos up like that. Everything is clean now, otherwise we wouldn't even have looked at it.

Damn, thats a killer deal.

And I agree, 21k seems expensive. I'd say continue shopping.

Yea 21K is way to high for a base model truck like that. Keep looking!! Should be able to find a loaded FX4 or lariat for cheaper than that.

Wow, 21k is steep? Seems everything is more expensive in this area of NJ, think that could be it?

And yes Robin Hood, it's a manual transfer case

I say steep too my '04 FX4 (scab) with 39k on it was $11.9k +TTT with leather an all. Then they gave me like 1500 over KBB on my ranger. Not sure how they made money on my deal, but I was very pleased with it.

I find this funny how everyone that's sold their Ranger lately has bought an F150 and then I go and sell mine and buy an even smaller truck.

Odd, but the prices are like that all over NJ. We drove an hour and a half to the south end of the state checking out prices.

Going to look at an '06 F250 today -black, extended cab, 23,000 miles, listed at 26k, going to see if we can talk them down to around $20k. Looks good in the photos.

Here's the next one we're looking at

2005 Ford F-250 Super Duty, Woodbridge, NJ, Pickup, Loman Ford-Kia Stock: 5EB41766

The 250 we saw on Wednesday was really nice, but we couldn't talk them down past $23,400 so we left. I am going to see this one today after work and take it for a test drive. It's got nearly twice the mileage, but the starting price being over $4,000 below is enough for me to overlook that.
 


Quick Reply: May be the next to do the F150 mod...
