Kinda like the Adrenaline was supposed to have a Term motor in it and then fucken failed with a 3v GT motor... good ideas, horrible execution.

I think this truck will sell in the low 40s MSRP, but could be had for mid 30s most likely.

Damn, starting at $38k, that is steep. I'd rather just pick up the crewcab. Some sticky tires and a converter will be fun to see at the track though.

Where did you see pricing figures, Lucas? Everywhere I've seen says pricing to come this Fall before production begins.

Cars in general have gotten too expensive. Even crappy econoboxes are the price of what Mustangs used to MSRP for...

Part of the reason the Ranger is gone. Who the fuck would buy a brand new Ranger for $20k+ when you can buy a 5 year old loaded diesel for the same price

Not really. A 1990 mustang GT brand new was $20,456, in 2012 dollars that would be $35,389. The window sticker from a 2012 5.0 was $40,105. So that's an increase of less than $5,000. So in reality they have somewhat stayed closely related.

But your arguement holds no value if you don't factor in the value of the dollar over time.

Seems pretty cool to me, as far as the prices go. Everything has went way up, nothing we can do about that.
