Depends what your going to use it for... I own an F350 crew-cab diesel and am happy with it....it's my work truck and has more room for the family than most cars....however it would be overkill as a daily driver if a ranger would suit me fine.

Well, in 2-weeks, the best truck from Ford will be the 2008 F-250 with the 6.4L Powerstroke diesel engine.
They hit dealer lots in 2-weeks just in time for Ford Truck month. Wait till Truck Month to buy, you'll get a much better deal-starts mid-Feb.

I drive an 89 Ranger, and its held up very well. I would definatly buy another one. They are a nice sized truck for city driving if you are not wanting to haul much with it. If you were looking to tow a trailer or haul larger loads, I would go for an F150. All Ford trucks are very well built, it just depends on what you're needing it for.

I have had a F150 since 1991 and literally replaced the clutch at135000 mi and the power steering pump. Its 300 in-line 6 and will pull a travel trailer with the best, or just get me back and forth to work. Ive never been left on the road broke down. I wouldn't give it up for a new one. Good Luck

Depends on what you wish to do with it, If you only haul groceries
go with the extended cab Ranger
If you haul work related items, go for the diesel. F250 or F350
I have a 1986 F350 Quadcab that is overkill for my needs but I LOVE it.
If you want to ride around in style, get the Amarillo!

well go for a F150 for the 4x4 or the ranger for commuting! My fiance and I have a F350 2005 it gets great diesel mileage! i can travel to rodeo with 45 miles to the gallon!

Depends on your use. But we have been building the 2008 Super duty for a month now. Do check them out, especially with the new 6.4L diesel. It's a monster. I have a F-150 King Ranch and I love it.

Well I am partial to the 1967-1979 F-series, but I also love older cars and trucks.
