Treepep 1,028 #3 Posted 5 hours ago ah yep. not paying 100,000 for a flagship that my 05 Ford 4x4 can do. No trade in value, no private party value. Dents dings scratches. replaced darn near everything probably three times Dang if I could find something older. No real rust here so it must exist. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ed Kennell 44,496 #6 Posted 2 hours ago I always felt safe surrounded by two ton of iron in my 16yo crew cab. But after I started driving like an 80yo with fading eyesight, hearing, depth perception, and a neck that doesn't turn, I now prefer Mrs.Ks new SUV with lane control, panic braking, blind spot warning, auto dimmers, and back up camera. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep. And adaptive cruise control. Plus, the two tons never really provided the finely engineered crash protection of the new SUV, either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
