I was going to place a 24 order this week but they wanted to charge a markup. I refuse to pay a markup on a vehicle I most likely won't see for over a year, especially for a vehicle that doesn't have all the bugs ironed out yet.
You don't even get ventilated seats on a Lariat for 50k? Also where's the optional 2.7? GM is out on top right now with their offerings and we'll see how the Tacoma compares when the build and price comes out, but right now I would say the Rangers in last place on my list.
I hope they don't change anything, this is supposed to be a cheap economy car, lets not make it the next vehicle with a starting price of over $40k because people need niceties. If anything Ford should start taking things off the Maverick, start by giving the XL crank windows and go from there...
As far as design goes, I would change the rear bumper to a more traditional truck bumper. I think the current rear bumper looks odd and out of place, and the cutout for the trailer hitch looks like a after thought.
