Buy it and check Vroom, Carmax, Carvana, etc. Put it up on facebook marketplace, craigslist, etc. You will have NO PROBLEM selling it if you are fairly priced. You can easily make a few thousand dollars with the market right now. Better you than the dealer.
I plan on putting an order in for a Tremor with Woody Anderson in Huntsville. 1k off MSRP, $399 doc fee, no more b.s. fees, and if you're an ALFA insurance member you get a $500 farm bureau credit.
I saw 3 mavs today in the Huntsville area! Hot pepper red on the Arsenal, black one on 565, and velocity blue at the first and last on 127 North of Athens.
The average price of a new vehicle in June 2022 is now $48,043. A fully optioned, AWD, crew cab pickup truck that beats the average price by 12k and you're expecting???
Honestly at that towing weight, I would go maverick. It's cheaper, more fuel efficient, easier to live with in tight places, and a newer design (the current gen ranger has been produced since 2011 overseas).
What makes you interested in the Ranger?
Just got off chatting with Ford customer service. I was told my build could take up to 23 days to be produced! I thought they generally built them within the week of scheduling.

ADM stands for "Adjusted Dealer Markup" and I hope the new name match policy puts this scummy dealership out of business. If enough people don't take their orders, Ford doesn't send them cars.

I placed my XLT, FX4, 4k tow, lux, cp360 order on 10/14. After hearing nothing all the way until mid-April, I decided to drop the lux and cp360 to facilitate a faster delivery. Sure enough, by mid-May, I was given a VIN and told I was scheduled for week of June 27th.
Of course, it's been...
This is very curious. I placed my order with Granger on 10/14. I have been checking with Ford chat weekly and was given the good news 3.5 weeks ago that I have a build date of 6/27. I also confirmed my build date again last week with chat. However, when I check my vin on Ford's website, all...
Have you called or chatted with Ford directly? Have you spoken with the general manager of the dealership? Those would be my first two steps if it were me.
Well, after 7 months of waiting with no news on my Maverick order, I finally got some good news! My maverick has been scheduled for a build week of June 27th! My wife has started telling me she thought I would never see the truck, so I'm going to print off the chat transcript and wave it in...
Mine was 2 for months... talked to ford chat and they pretty much said 2 doesn't mean anything if they are constrained items. They advised me I would get my truck faster if I dropped lux and cp360 even if I was a 2.
