Ford Nationwide Employee Pricing - America’s 250th Anniversary

[rusty ol ranger]

Everything F-150 and bigger is aluminum and with a bedliner which most people have the bed thing is a non-issue.

I have had an aluminum truck for four years now I and love it.

I tossed a bag of stone in mine (like landscape stone you get from lowes...50lb or whatever) and it punched a pinhole in the floor. Then had a junk dryer put a dent in the wheelwell.

Granted i dont have a liner....but still. I did get a rubber mat. I do wanna get a spray in at some point.

Other then that i like it though.

My only gripe was how stuff rattled against the bed back there. I snagged a drop in of marketplace for cheap just so it didn't sound like things were rattling on the back window.

My straps for my tonneu cover wack the header of the bed whenever i hit the brakes....took me a week to figure out wtf the noise was

If I was somehow forced to buy a new vehicle during this event, I would want something with a manual transmission. I haven't looked, but a bare bones stick shift Maverick would be interesting. I'm weird and I would still want rolley windows, key locks, and as I'm asking for 15" steel wheels they would kick me off the lot.

I thought the Maverick only came as a automatic?

Interest on NEW American made vehicles is also a tax write-off for the next 3 long ass years..

Your thinking is correct.

I was kicking the idea around about getting back into a Ranger (or F-150) but life got in the way. My wife's been on disability for nearly a year due to a nagging injury with six hospital stays including multiple surgeries and only getting about 50% of her normal salary. Plus with everything going up in price so much, I gotta hold off and just maintain status quo without a truck payment for the foreseeable future.

I’d like to have something new just to have something new. If I could get one with a truck payment, I might do it. Problem is everything I would want to have comes with a house payment these days….

I’ve thought about it too, but the pricing and the looming regulations that track everything and tattle on you is quickly reducing my desire to have something new that I don’t have to work on all the time

2018 was a big killer for me with the mandatory backup cameras too.

The mandate for cameras in the cars watching you all the time is really bad though.

Only makes the same car more expensive
