Our local Ford dealer just got the ranger window sticker 45,000 !!!

I sat in one over the weekend, was a FX4 crew cab XLT with adaptive cruise, WIFI, Auto climate sys, remote start and navigation.

Sticker was right at 40K I'd guess sales price would be 37-38K once the furor dies down on them.


This complaining about price got me thinking, so I did some digging.

My 1991 Ext cab V6 2wd was about 12K sticker price, it had 185 series 14" tires, a tachometer, rear ABS, A/C and a tape deck as options.
$12K 1991 money would be worth about 22500 in 2019.

I built a 2019 Ranger supercab optioned as closely as I could to my 1991 truck, and the price is 25K. And that includes power windows, locks, airbags, etc.

So a 2,500 increase is less than I would have guessed.
