Sorry bro - don't know why your getting all defensive. I was trying to sell my ranger for fun.. I have the money saved up to buy a couple of new vehicles, and really wanted to keep my ranger as a beater. If someone wanted to pay the price i requested - I was all for it.
. remember, NADA and KBB..all pre recession.
Even out of a recession... i can assure you your vehicle will not be sold private party for 11,000.. it just wont happen..and you sure as hex won't get 8k for it trade in (you should know..since you've sold cars half as long as i've been alive)
Also recall that you are still utilizing this vehicle.. in a couple of years - the price will drop significantly since Rangers lose value more than any other truck available on the market (which you should also know) so realistically speaking - in 2 years - you sure as heck wont get anywhere near 11 for it.
Remember this conversation when you decide to sell :)
here...have a picture of my car to feel better..out of curiosity - how much would ppl pay for it? Hehe
And have some ford love

How can you assure something like that? You MIGHT be able to assure something like that if someone is asking an outrageous price, for a pos vehicle. But Mike isn't doing either. The truck is worth what someone is willing to pay for it...and if he were to post it up on C-list today at 11k OBO, i'd be willing to bet he would get quite a bit of interest.

Its like most of what we buy and sell. What we want isn't as important as what someone is welling to give you for it. Thats when the options you added to it now become a loss when its time to sell. Its a great looking truck and looks like it took you a ton of cash to get it there. Post it at the price you want and see if you get anybody to come close to it. I hate it to, I know with the new Ranger is on its way the need for a used one is all based on how the new on sells. I think it might tank, The reason the Ranger lasted so long is that it stuck to its roots. Great truck at a even greater value.
Good Luck with the OBO's

He could probably buy one older then mine with a few more miles on it for that, but around here trucks are like gold including rangers. I know I could get what the truck is worth NOT including any of the mods i've done to it. I know mine isn't one of a kind. There is hardly any vehicles in the world that are. Just out of curiosity what did you get for your old 98? Around here you can find the 98-00 with around 100k miles or so with the same options as mine for around 6-8k. I have low mileage on this truck for the year. If I had a bare bones regular cab with no options, but with the same mileage and year I could see it going for 6k easy in the south.

LOL. Yes it is. It seems at this point it\'s more of an ego thing than a feeler. You asked for opinions, and you\'re arguing most of them. You have to remember that the market will not typically bear the value of your vehicle plus the value of the mods. Very rarely does anyone get much more, if anything, than what the vehicle would sell for bone stock with the same mileage.
Edit: that was responding to 98liftedranger\'s comment that the thread is getting ridiculous

What did you pay for your 2000 when you got it?
Here is a prime example. I did a 100 mile search on autotrader.com came up with 8 trucks that are 04-05. Almost all have more miles then mine. Now take a look at what they are asking.

Well, I can tell you that, at least in my area, Rangers are a dime-a-dozen. I paid $5k for mine, and only because it was immaculate inside and out, well maintained, and from a dealer, with a drivetrain warrantee. There was an identical one in a different color with a cap at the same dealer for similar money. There were also a half-dozen other similar model Rangers for sale in the area that were newer, some loaded, some with less, some with caps, and they all ranged from $5k-$7k. Maybe in your area they tend to run for more, but for a private sale, $8k is the most I'd pay, even in that condition, because of what else I could find around.

it looks fantastic, has less miles than your truck - and similar mods. In 2 years when you decide to sell - the price will be even lower. The way your talking now - I get the feeling your considering selling; which might be a smarter decision before the price drops.
as far as 3500 for my truck - thats about the price I paid for it and it looks and drives brand new - and better than any rangers i've seen in town (mine sits higher, and the wax etc. i put on it makes it look outstanding- although i will admit - some of the trucks on this site make my truck look like Junk)
