Ridgeline

Boom!

 

[Yaj Yak]

it's funny that the ridgeline is being poked fun at here, because frankly, what he's looking for, a small to midsize truck, such as a colorado/tacoma/ridgeline, would work perfectly for

 

[Yaj Yak]

EcoBoost F150 all day.

You can get a 2012-2014 with 100k miles or less for near $15k.

fwiw, i didn't see anything close to this for this price out there.


even here, a decent crew cab one of those is going to be way more than 15k.

 

[Yaj Yak]

f150's 2012 or newer, under 125k miles, with 6 cylinders, around here with clean titles...

Ranger,Frontier. etc....

 

[Yaj Yak]

right right

 

[EmersonHart13]

Frontier is old as shit but presents pretty good value.

 

[Yaj Yak]

crazy that they're still being made

k


just like 7 hours from here, or 30 some hours from the OP

and then you're dealing with a dealership so when you register in IL you're getting tanked with sales tax at 7.5% at least... plus title/bs dealer fees.

also. good luck getting 10% off a used vehicle at a dealer.

not to mention, it appears [MENTION=7923]CTC DEEZUL[/MENTION]'s dog got ahold of the interior already

 

[DEEZUZ]

Oolololl

 

[EmersonHart13]

Alex's dog has set the new standard for interiors on TCG.

 

[DEEZUZ]

Bottom of the barrel. Like all else in my life

 

[DEEZUZ]

Picked him up last night and didn't have the energy to muzzle him. Def heard some new ripping and tearing going on back there. Ughhh

 

[DEEZUZ]

I either have to turn on the wipers or crack the window to distract him

 

[EmersonHart13]

Oh

My

Gawd

Stop, I'm dying over here.... lololol

 

[GTPpower]

If I was at 6000' elevation, I'd definitely want forced induction.

he posted elsewhere he's around 4500'...

two sleds on a flatbed trailer won't be more than 2,000lbs... meh.

 

[GTPpower]

Ah, I thought I saw 6k earlier in the thread.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

I live at 6k feet, 360hp or whatever my 6.0 had was slow as balls. My 320hp rated hoe is even slower feeling while being a few hundred pounds lighter.

 

[Jeffs FRC]

Used trucks are a total ripoff imo. I'd go out and get a brand new crew cab F150 STX with the 2.7 for around 30k after discounts. It will tow everything you need, get good mpg's, and its huge inside.

unless you "need"/want a 3/4 or 1 ton truck...

then used trucks make more sense.

likely because nowhere as many 3/4 ton/1ton trucks are being made/sold nowadays

 

[EmersonHart13]

Honestly I think that new does provide value but it really depends on what you are looking for and what is for sale and what the incentives are, etc...

That is far from a blanket statement and if you don't want a payment or only have X amount to spend then New is out the window whether it is the best value or not.

I live at about 4500'. Lake Tahoe is at 6225'. To get to the lake I have to drive over one of 3 passes that takes me over 8000' then back down to lake level. I can lower mpg expectations- turn the truck into the weekend toy hauler and keep DD'ing the subi.
[MENTION=19]Yaj Yak[/MENTION] You got me swinging hard on these trucks.
