Default What will your next vehicle be?

So with the Rangers no longer being produced and the last new ones leaving the lots, what are most people thinking for their next vehicle? Obviously we will all keep our trucks for the present, but over the next couple years many of our trucks will blow out the engine, transmission, or rust out the frame, be totaled in an accident or otherwise be destroyed, and will need to be replaced.

So what do people think their next vehicle will be?

For me, if nothing major changes between now and then, I would likely get either a frontier or a F250 diesel.

If its going to be very very new then another f150 since my recent one got totaled. Or if I could afford it another powerstroke preferably the 6.7 those are some nice trucks.

not gonna jump to a 150 just to get the same mpg. I would love some extra leg room and power so my next vehicle will be a f250 Powerstroke for sure!! Cant ever see myself driving a car and the danger ranger is a little undersized for a truck so definitely gettin a f250 once the level 2 dies which hopefully wont be for another 100,000 miles or so. (too attached to the ranger)

i had a 95 f150 5.0.....wouldnt mind having another...except a 4x4...having a 2wd in upstate NY is as useless as tits on a bullfrog.

Also interested in late 80-early 90 toyota pickups...dont shun me!!!

F250/350 diesel OR a old Jeep Wrangler, plan on doing it long before my 2011 Ranger is run into the ground.
