True dat.
Light, powerful, decent cloth seats, good tires and five on the floor, $25k and they would sell them all day.
That’s what I bought, used of course, and auto transmission, drat.
You’re up early, Whitey.
Headed over your way on Monday for 12 days of elk hunting in the Crazy Mountains, north of Big Timber.
Might pick up a few more Montana pinstripes on my 01 Ranger, with 5 speed manual transmission of course.
I dread having to purchase a new pickup. But if they sold the model you describe I would be driving it.
Not enough people bought manuals to justify keeping them and CAFE put the final nail in that coffin.
“Light, powerful, decent cloth seats, good tires and five on the floor, $25k and they would sell them all day.”
Why bother with a more expensive stick shift that costs more to maintain?? You can a better truck for under $30k all day long and not bother with roll-up windows or just an AM radio.
