04 Ranger EDGE

Hi all. Im in the market for a new ranger. The current rebate is 3000 does anyone know if this will go up soon.? Hate to go buy one and it go up the next day.. Talking to the salesman he said the ranger isnt selling well and he want them to raise the rebate but he wasnt sure. The dakota has 5000 dollar rebate.

If you qualify for A/D/X/Z-plan pricng, Ford just came out with another $1,000 if you finance it through Ford Credit. Good through July 6th.

I know I may sound like a broken record to some on this issue, but that's like asking what the price of General Motors stock will be on August 5th, 2006. Every time I try to predict what Ford will do with rebates, I'm wrong. There's just no way of knowing ahead of time what Ford will do.

Ouch- tough one. The Edge definitely appeals to a younger crowd, but the Edge tends to have less equipment (no power goodies, cruise, etc...), making it more affordable. You can get all the goodies on an Edge, which would make it more attractive to all buyers. When I'm lucky enough to get a FX4 Level II, it will be sold in 24 hours. But top-of-the-line stuff always does well on our lot; that may not necessarily apply to where you live. All in all, I don't think it makes a huge difference, so I'd go with whichever you prefer.

I bought an 01 Edge last summer with 12,000 miles on it. I found out later that 01 was the only year you could get a reg cab with the 4.0. I like it. I like the basic stuff, no power windows, etc.

You can get an Edge load with everything I think. I don't have power seats but otherwise it has everything. I like the rubber floor the best though.
