Not sure I'd be taking a picture while driving at 75 mph...

That's why it's kinda blurry.

 

[goeduck]

Yes, taking a picture at 75 mph?

looks like 8.6 mpg to me, but is that instantaneous?

Of course its instantaneous but if it changes it does so quite slowly. Thats pretty much the mileage we got all day.

It's the average over the 138 miles shown so not exactly instantaneous, that's another screen.
The more vehicles are driven the more accurate those MPG calculators get to some extent. They still only average it since the last time you reset the tripometer.

After romping in the woods all day, we were packing up camp and found him here.

cushy place to hang out.

We live pretty boring lives here but today I went to get plumbing supplies and when I came out of the store, I had this classic parked next to me! I took a few photos and the owner showed up and we chatted for 1/2 an hour. What a nice guy and had a great chat! He was in his 80's and does all the service to his classic truck. I looked under it and the frame hardly had any rust on it.

Do you know what year and how many miles were on it?

I saw a 1999 ranger for sale on our bulletin board. 19K miles, standard, $8,000.

We chatted so much, it was hard to keep up. Maybe it was 87?

My BIL has one of those. Two tanks, real 1/2 pickup, engine has good power to it. Not rust, to speak of, probably because it's been pretty unusual to salt the roads. They're like those old Toyota Hilux's that you used to be able to buy, they keep running and running and running.

It looks to be one of the early Ranger models for sure. Great vehicles.

Calling out for any new new Ranger owners here to post there thoughts 2020 or 21 models?

 

[ArlyA]

Again calling out for any new new Ranger reviews. Any 2020 or 21 versions here?

I was chatting with my body shop pro freind this week and he mentioned seeing cars from Florida rusted out. Ocean salt...

I lot of salt area vehicles get shipped elsewhere in the used car market. Or people move and bring their rust buckets. So even here where we have little rusting issues you see vehicles that are rusted out. When I bought my Toyota FJ I saw a lot of them coated up underneath trying to hide the rust. I finally found one that had been a local purchase.

TBN member in PA reports:
2021 Ford Ranger Lariat
MSRP $44,290
Selling for $49,790

Checking the inventory at my Ford dealership shows no Rangers available in central Texas.
How's the inventory/market in your area? Are they selling above MSRP?

My local Ford dealer has almost no inventory of Ranger or F series. The last time I drove by it looked like the few they had were used inventory.

I emailed to ask our dealership.

Not a good time to buy a new or used vehicle.
