Isn't that wonderful...

Just one more reason the general buying population has such a negative outlook on dealers.

Dealers are aquiring the ethics and scruples of the used car salesman.

I don’t blame Ford for trying to crack down. The dealers are going to take the brand down with them since the dealer network is viewed as the representatives of the manufacturer.

My credo
it is easier to fix and understand than "her"
I like the budget unit..

...the $3500 setup is not horrible apparently...

I called for the new shop truck....just a light protecting bumper....1700....for a ranch hand...2000 installed.....there was another that was 3600 installed....NO WINCH. 10 days out ..I can get boxes and drop in liner Monday or tue. .same for a rack to mount the strobe lights. Not a fan of aluminium trucks

So ... It's still on the trailer. Nobody has a drop in liner for it in stock locally either....or I would have at least started loading tools

So make sure what you are looking at is available...

I have a feeling getting cool bronco stuff is going to be a scramble....

Yeah, that is what the note said that came with the hammock Ford sent... hang in there.

So far it is all make believe, not too worried about parts until we have a car.

You told her 'no' and still alive to tlk about it?:icon_confused:
I told her if nothing else I could make something better looking for cheaper.

A whole Warn bumper is like $1500. Throw a $400 Smittybilt on there and it looks a whole lot better than Fords offering.

@PanteraGT5S 85_Ranger4X4 isn't kidding. You should see some of his fabrication projects on here. He could build better for cheaper if he set his mind to it.

I'm sure they're buzzing about sasquatch being available with the manual. Good to see Ford come through on that, Might be good news for manual Ranger fans also...

I didn't ask for your life story, just answer the question!
