The last ranger will depreciate just as quickly as any other ranger before it.

Reminds me of Will Ferrell in Old School. Naked and running down the street. Alone.

It's a Ranger and who cares what happens to the last one manufactured.
My 5.0 2014 F-150 gets about the same fuel mileage as the 3.0 and 4.0 Rangers so their time is up and quite rightly so.
