You're asking people on a ranger forum whether you should buy a ranger or an F-150... I think most people are going to tell you ranger.

That being said, the 3.0 V6 gets bad gas mileage (its a really old design) so it wouldn't surprise me if a modern V-8 got essentially the same fuel economy.

Out of curiosity what $ amount did he offer the f150 at?

wow the rangers on that link are almost all way overpriced. I guess they want you to talk them down from there. or maybe they are all trying to sell the new 2011 rangers since it is the last year they will make them... again...
