Thumbs up Another Canuk

Greetings all=

Joined up after doin' the research on my new 07 Ranger FX4.
Still weelin' & dealin' with the dealer. What convinced me to buy new was "0%" financing right now. Ya gatta like free money !!! What sold me on the Ranger is that in all my searchin' I couldn't find any REAL problems being discussed about the truck. Piddly stuff - older trucks.

People who complain about the gas mileage must have traded in a real peanut pusher.
Complaints about the ride - traded in a Cadillac. Complaints about lack of re-engineering - never had to buy parts for an older vehicle.
The list goes on my freinds!!!

Proud people in St. Paul MN. Have ya ever workd in a place where people were proud of what they build? I have.

You guys are gonna like this one...... I'm trading in my '98 GMC 4x4...."like a rock"!!!

Gonna make a couple of posts about the options. Salesmen don't seem to be as smart as they seem , but he's such a nice guy

Let's face it. The other automakers have a long way to go to address the issues that really matter to a workin' class person who's lookin' for a rock solid pickup truck that won't rape my bank account now, when I'm drivin' it down the road, or when it's 20 yrs old.

Rock on
fred

Welcome to FTE fflintstone!!!!

I believe you will like the Ranger. I've had a Ranger almost every year since I could drive, and love them. I picked up a 2007 in June of 2006...

Its always good to pull someone away from the GMC crowd...

Now, pull up a chair... check out the Ranger Forum... check out the Local Area Chapter for your area... and start having some fun!

Glad to have you at FTE!
