Good deal?

Well i found a real nice ranger on craigslist today, and im in the market for one. here it is. 1999 Ford Ranger XL SuperCab 4WD

I love this color too. just want to here you thoughts on the price maybe some other things. I figured i would try to drop the dealer down a grand see where that takes me.

wouldn't be bad if you got it a little cheaper. no power window/locks. mines like the same setup only with a stepside with a topper, got mine at 64k for 8k.

That is not a bad deal. The 3.0 is a good stout motor.

Why are you getting another ranger kid? He's right about the 3.0, it has less power then the 4.0. You like going wheelin too, the 4.0 is better wheelin then the 3.0.

Ain't gonna get much for an old rusty truck. You should of used it as a clunker and got yourself a brand new truck and $3k-$4k for the old rusty truck. How long did you have that truck for anyways? If you aren't planning on doing much wheelin with next vehicle, maybe you should get an suv instead and keep the ranger as a project truck or something to go wheelin.
