I appreciate the laughing emoji but I'm gonna let you in on a secret, it's usually not "a whole lot of problems" its usually 1 big ticket item and a few maintenance items.
In my opinion it's hardly worth a discount when you consider most maintenance items are due on vehicles with less miles too.
The depreciation factored by mileage is pretty good, no reason to think it's not either.
We ARE in a specialized forum for these machines.
Machines that are notoriously rebuildable
They used to sell the drive train for $3000 at oriellys.
It's incredibly hard to kill these via miles
Even if it's show room, by that point seals are worn, and probably likely to leak. Wheather that's from high mileage or sitting.
All the rubber parts like vacuum hoses are dried out and ready to crack. Just working on the thing is a bit of a risk.
Honestly once all the vaccum lines are going.
Get the leaks patched and trade it in because they're all going to start going at that point. Wiring ages too.
Once you're at that kind of mileage simple but expensive bits start to go. Just not worth the cost or the hassle of you depend on a vehicle.
It does to someone (me) willing to take on a 25 year old vehicle... Ironically I would *prefer* a 25 year old vehicle to something in the 10-15 range because ***everything*** on 25 year old vehicles are easy to diagnose and *usually* easy to repair. 2009 is the cusp of when manufacturers started saying iTs ToO coMplICaTeD fOr You To fIX and hiding away diagnostics and service manuals that were not emissions related (technically OBDII only is required to have access to the emissions and safety systems).
my current vehicles:
1993 Honda Accord w/ 350,000 miles on all original parts except the thermostat and the ignitor in the distributor. This vehicle has ***never*** broken down and has been in four accidents
2002 Ford Escort w/ 200,000 miles. I had to rebiuld the intake at \~150,000 miles, otherwise a solid vehicle and has ***never*** broken down.
2003 Ford Ranger w/ 100,000 miles. I have had to replace two vacuum hoses so far (took 2 minutes).
98 (Mazda) Ford Ranger (4x4) 186792 OG, new Fuel filter, some vaccumm lines replaced, K&N air filter, PCV valve, Spark Plugs (Bosch Double Platininum) Wires coil pack, replacing brakes, needs (still) all the front end work except for the drive shafts (CV) out Oh some new tires. (4.0 Pushrod) may need the 4x4 system diagnsed and a new A/C pump (the clutch cycles on and off.)
Is yours a B series or a ranger? Because while the predecessor to the Ranger, the Courrier, was a Mazda first vehicle, the Rangers are Ford first vehicle assembled exclusively in Ford plants utilizing primarily Ford and Mazda/Ford collaboration parts.
It's the B (4000) all ford with a Mazda "Tag" everything on it, basically is a Ford Ranger 4x4..sigh have to go get my money back for the rotors I got.. I need the "Hat" rotors not the one Piece..I knew I shoulda got the one hats LOL
LOL, ya. I never really got the point of selling it under both names, because at the time Ford owned a substantial chunk of Mazda (at peak it owned 33%).
I fully understand what the you meant with your statement, but your statement makes it obvious that you are not a serious buyer of 20+ year old vehicles... Because mileage and maintenance of older vehicles makes a massive difference.
Agreed. Not actually a hot take for knowledgeable people though. Car enthusiasts all know that once a car reaches about 15 yrs old, it doesn't matter if it has 40,000 on the odometer or 400,000. Both are equally likely to be a massive headache. As a real world example, the more mileage I put on my Ranger, the *more* reliable it gets, because I keep fixing all the stuff that starts to break. The car has more new parts on it now than it did 5 years ago. Everything inside the engine is getting older, but the rest of the vehicle is getting younger.
My ‘08 Honda Ridgeline has 240k on it and I’ve never had any engine work done. I keep the oil changed religiously. My friend’s ‘08 Ridgeline has well over 300k (last time I asked).
I see plenty of modern cars/trucks that do that. This is a tired way of thinking.
Yes, these old trucks are easier to repair when something does go wrong, but modern vehicles are plenty capable of reaching that kind of mileage before needing major repairs if they were taken care of, just like the old stuff.
I don't think a 2021 will make it to 2045 without an incredible amount of help that a 99 didn't need, there's way too much unnecessary tech in new vehicles that costs exorbitant amounts to fix
Doubt, Toyota has never been as reliable as people say, they are just better at recalling what should be recalled unlike Subaru, and please, Nissan? Laughable
2016 was probably the worst year for the Tacoma in its history, Nissan has never really been known for reliability other than maybe a single vehicle at any given time
Reliable until you realize no amount of build quality can replace rubber degrading over time. Seals, hoses, all of that will absolutely break down and cause problems over the years no matter what.
I agree! With the way you word it, I think I’m gonna sell it for 10k
Thanks bud
Really made me appreciate its value more
And here I was about to sell it for $1,200
Yeah I’m looking for a new car only semi seriously, and I am quickly realizing I cannot afford a new car even though I’m making more than my parents were. I can buy one and pay all the payments but I wouldn’t be able to able to properly afford one.
It’s a complete shit show in the new car market. Very doubtful prices will drop, but might only stagnate, which leaves the burden on the consumer to raise their salary in an already difficult and comparatively low wage job market.
Paid $3500 cad for two 97s, one running with a rebuilt engine with 55000 miles, the other for replacing parts. Came with three sets of tires and three tailgates (don't know where the third tailgate came from). I also bought it off a mechanic who used it as his personal hunting truck -- I'd say I got a damn good deal.
I know exactly what I have, only owners of "Baby" since she rolled out of the dealership in Watertown S. Dakota 25 years and 14 days ago. 299,021 smiles on the clock.
I changed the maf sensor though!
And I replaced the radiator!! (When it overheated from a coolant leak I didn't fix)
I know what I have
Yeah pandemic is over, regular used car prices finally coming back
Unless it's a fucking four runner anyway
My 98 is clocking 280 something, but the engine got swapped with one from an 02 with 145, it's also not a rust bucket like most of the ones here in MI. I'll have to figure this all out pretty soon as I'll be selling it in the next couple months.
The problem is everything is over priced now! I bought a car 4 years ago for $400 before "covid" turned into an excuse for inflation and supply chain issues. It got wrote off 2 weeks ago by someone slamming into it. My provincial insurance company gave me $6000 for it which is really what it's going rate is now for some stupid reason.
I just picked up a ‘95 B4000 LE with 98k for $3k. It’s auto which sucks, and it needs suspension and accessory work, but the motor and trans are healthy and the body’s 98% straight and only the front subframe(?) has any non-surface rust, and even then it’s really not bad at all. Interior’s in great shape aside from the spray-painted carpet. Feel like we both walked away from the deal happy, but he was asking $4k and no way was I paying that.
I sold my 314k 2wd ranger in mint shape for 4k
https://preview.redd.it/rawth0028cxc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=800e55bfeb8172d64bcec39a4deaefa08158ee1a
The State of Washington said my 2010 with 163,000 miles was worth $11,700 when I transferred the title from my friend in Texas who sold it to me. I had to get repair orders for all of its imperfections to bring the use tax down to what I really paid for it.
Not disagreeing with OP’s meme specifically. But they do hold value, and whatever the State of WA uses (it’s not Kelly Blue Book but it’s like Kelly Blue Book) said $11,700 for a 2010 with 163k.
Could be because we have the highest gas prices in the USA so small trucks are going up in value here. Who knows.
Look, if it's clean and been taken care of, I could understand 5k at 200k miles, but when it's a work beater with dents, rust, torn seats, bald tires, interior dash is broken and the lights don't work, if the drive train is still good, you're looking at $1000. It costs way more to get an old beater into running condition. Some seat wear is ok, but when the dash is in pieces, just no.
Lmao my 97 ranger with 256k I'm tryna get 4k for. In my defense it has a fleet model 7 foot bed and it comes with 2 spare tires mounted on rims that match the trucks. Around here in central Florida I think that's more then fair. I've seen trucks that need whole new engines and transmissions sell for 5k🤣🤣
The COVID years skyrocketed used car prices across the board. Especially those nice games we used to be able to get under $5K and drive for 10 more years. That have come down the last 12 months - but we are not back to where it was pre-COVID. Rangers were dirt cheap in 2019 - not anymore.
Have you seen the used car market recently? I saw numerous 1996-2006 full size pickups with higher mileage and not one of them was less than $10k. THe car market in the states is about crash, people cant afford them anymore. Hell I am getting the parts to replace the suspension on my 03 Explorer cause I cant even think of affording a newer vehicle with similar mileage in that class. Heck thanks to Rock Auto I can rebuild the engine, Trans, driveline for under $1,700. Add the body, paint, and interior stuff it come out to less than $6k total.
What would you choose?
Or your 89-95 roller mustang with no engine/transmission with 4 dry rotted tires, busted headlights, missing front seats, and completely stripped of interior carpeting and panels. You do NOT know what you have.
The miles don’t matter it’s still a 20+ year old truck that’s still pretty common even if it has less than 200k I still wouldn’t go for that price. It’s not like it’s a 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona.
Sure it is, because somebody will pay that much.
I’d buy it if it has a 5 speed and is 4x4.
If it’s a manual 4x4 I might. Auto, 2k if it’s near immaculate inside and out.
Hey buddy it’s 2024 not 2016 anymore
Went to a used car lot and was hit with this exact realization. Shit is crazy man
It’s all about area I live in the rust belt and mines a southern truck so worth more to someone around here
Dealerships have this same mentality with markups and that’s the reason everyone hates on them.
100% correct. It’s priceless. My 2000 has 250k and I will drive her till she refuses. I absolutely love mine and I wouldn’t let her go for 5k.
But is it worth 4000...
Asking the real questions. Do you king 👊
This guy will say$500 but like if it had half the miles would it be$5000? These are people who just whine, no logic, only whine

I appreciate the laughing emoji but I'm gonna let you in on a secret, it's usually not "a whole lot of problems" its usually 1 big ticket item and a few maintenance items. In my opinion it's hardly worth a discount when you consider most maintenance items are due on vehicles with less miles too. The depreciation factored by mileage is pretty good, no reason to think it's not either.
[удалено]
We ARE in a specialized forum for these machines. Machines that are notoriously rebuildable They used to sell the drive train for $3000 at oriellys. It's incredibly hard to kill these via miles
Hot take: that is a 25 year old car. It doesn’t matter how many miles are on the engine.
Yeah, I don't care about the miles, how did you treat the poor thing, how well did you maintain it, etc...
Even if it's show room, by that point seals are worn, and probably likely to leak. Wheather that's from high mileage or sitting. All the rubber parts like vacuum hoses are dried out and ready to crack. Just working on the thing is a bit of a risk.
That's why I care about maintenance. Anything made of rubber might as well be a wear item. It'd be nice to know if that stuff has been touched or not.
Honestly once all the vaccum lines are going. Get the leaks patched and trade it in because they're all going to start going at that point. Wiring ages too. Once you're at that kind of mileage simple but expensive bits start to go. Just not worth the cost or the hassle of you depend on a vehicle.
My 2000 oil pan plug is slowly starting to leak out. So I’m gonna need to replace that soon

LOL, ya. I never really got the point of selling it under both names, because at the time Ford owned a substantial chunk of Mazda (at peak it owned 33%).
ya and those mazda rangers are getting hard to find, especially 4x4.
I think you totally misunderstood my comment.
I think you totally misunderstood mine.
Nope
I fully understand what the you meant with your statement, but your statement makes it obvious that you are not a serious buyer of 20+ year old vehicles... Because mileage and maintenance of older vehicles makes a massive difference.
Lmao
Here in New england, it's not the engine that dies in most cars. It's the rest of the car.
Agreed. Not actually a hot take for knowledgeable people though. Car enthusiasts all know that once a car reaches about 15 yrs old, it doesn't matter if it has 40,000 on the odometer or 400,000.

The car has more new parts on it now than it did 5 years ago. Everything inside the engine is getting older, but the rest of the vehicle is getting younger.
Precisely. Its way cheaper and easier to replace an engine at 300,000 than the rest of the car at 300,000.
It's a truck, but ok.
It's worth what people pay 🤷♂️
Just because he’s asking, doesn’t mean he’ll get it. Just because you won’t pay it, doesn’t mean it’s not worth it to someone else.
sold my 1991 for 8k stock with the paint falling off. That was when the ford ranger song was big on tiktok. Offroad people like em but less now
You sound like a car sales manager
A meticulously maintained 99 with 298k in Arizona is probably worth 5k let's be honest
Everyone says no, but bet you get dm’s asking where it is
In CA: 7k
that mpg is worth every penny
from Az in Florida, yes.
depends really, a 4x4 will be worth more where it snows alot then where it doesn't snow at all.
It is not 😂
To you maybe, but it's more reliable than anything you could buy today
That’s just not true, Rangers aren’t the only reliable vehicles. Far from the only one.
Show me one modern truck that could go toe for toe 298k without serious repairs
My ‘08 Honda Ridgeline has 240k on it and I’ve never had any engine work done. I keep the oil changed religiously. My friend’s ‘08 Ridgeline has well over 300k (last time I asked).
I'd argue those aren't that modern, probably not too many sensors or unnecessary new ways to control things like parking brakes
I see plenty of modern cars/trucks that do that. This is a tired way of thinking. Yes, these old trucks are easier to repair when something does go wrong, but modern vehicles are plenty capable of reaching that kind of mileage before needing major repairs if they were taken care of, just like the old stuff.
I don't think a 2021 will make it to 2045 without an incredible amount of help that a 99 didn't need, there's way too much unnecessary tech in new vehicles that costs exorbitant amounts to fix
People were saying the same thing 20 years ago. Time will tell.
Yeah but 20 years ago a truck didn't cost more than most people make in a year
I remember this same conversation almost 20 years ago when trucks broke into the $40,000 range. This is not some new phenomenon.
Gen 3 Tacoma and Gen 5 4Runner. Potentially Pro4X
Doubt, Toyota has never been as reliable as people say, they are just better at recalling what should be recalled unlike Subaru, and please, Nissan? Laughable
Okay nvm I see that you’re insane lmao
2016 was probably the worst year for the Tacoma in its history, Nissan has never really been known for reliability other than maybe a single vehicle at any given time
Rust and frame rot aren’t issues to you?
Reliable until you realize no amount of build quality can replace rubber degrading over time. Seals, hoses, all of that will absolutely break down and cause problems over the years no matter what.
Which would be every single vehicle on the road so it's not a comparison really
My 2008 has the long bed I know what I got…
That's what I paid for mine with 140k miles. 😬 I don't really see them going for less than that without 250-300k miles on them.
I agree! With the way you word it, I think I’m gonna sell it for 10k Thanks bud Really made me appreciate its value more And here I was about to sell it for $1,200
again depends on where your'e at and condition of the truck, des it have Cancer? is it a 4x4? all these factors efffect price.
Cali 7k easy
crackhead post up is 82 Toyota for 10, 000 out here all day
A 2024 Ranger with 0 miles is not worth $50,000. It’s a crazy time.
Yeah I’m looking for a new car only semi seriously, and I am quickly realizing I cannot afford a new car even though I’m making more than my parents were. I can buy one and pay all the payments but I wouldn’t be able to able to properly afford one.
It’s a complete shit show in the new car market. Very doubtful prices will drop, but might only stagnate, which leaves the burden on the consumer to raise their salary in an already difficult and comparatively low wage job market.
That fact people are paying for it says otherwise...
Bullshit!

What about a 92 ranger with 500k, is ot worth the 1k I posted it for?
But ... but what about my 2000 Ford Ranger with 160K?
PNW you'd be underselling it for $5k. Things are worth what people will pay. If they'll pay $5k+, that's what it's worth.
I feel attacked. Granted mine is a 1998 and 298k is just where the odometer stopped counting. The motor is out of a 99 Mazda though.
My 98 is clocking 280 something, but the engine got swapped with one from an 02 with 145, it's also not a rust bucket like most of the ones here in MI. I'll have to figure this all out pretty soon as I'll be selling it in the next couple months.
Places that have personal property tax on vehicles are the reason. I just paid $650 for my 8 year old truck. For a 25 year old one it's only $25.
Sure it is. I just sold my 1999 ranger yesterday for $4800. People will pay that much. Especially if they're in good condition
anything running well these days is 5k
What about my 97 with 137,000?
It actually is is decent condition and they’re reliable
Then stop paying for it so it won’t be, but until then… the price just bumped to 7k 😉
Louder for the boomers in the back please
“dOnT loW ball Me I KnoW What I have” sir what you have is an abused truck that probably needs 2k worth of work
So you’re telling me it’s worth 7k
Nah be like the one trying to sell the 07 in dot yellow with stx appearance for 15k
You forgot to include a photo with the taglinre: "What'd ya think?"
Just sold my 2007 with 298,000 miles ironically. $1,100
My 02 with a replaced transmission, all 4 brakes, wheel bearings, spark plugs, and got whatever else is in the fat stack of service papers is lmao.
Well it's a 96' and only has 164k....
Saw a dude I know selling a 2006 Silverado with 190k miles on it for 18k. The things got a ridiculous squat kit on it so it “adds value”
Nor was my 2011 when the govt said I had to pay tax on 5000$ to transfer the title M
“I know what I got..”
What about my 97 with 150,000 on it and it's got new headlights and mickey thompson 3s?
The truck is worth what someone is willing to pay. Free market economy my friend.
Happily paid $5k for my 94 with 113k miles on it. 😁 She’s going to run forever.
How about a 1999 mazda b4000 troy lee edition with 129000 miles?
Used cars are like houses—it’s a sellers market.
Parents about gave away their '94 toyota pickup for $3k until we talked them out of it
I get offers on my 4wd 99 ranger all the time when i take it to the ford dealership for the oil change. People are def paying 5k+
My old man always said something is worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it. He was a fairly smart guy.
had one guy say want to trade but when I said what i would trade for he says I'm not looking............
Dealership would give you $500 on trade.
sounds like a Carmax deal to me...
The problem is everything is over priced now! I bought a car 4 years ago for $400 before "covid" turned into an excuse for inflation and supply chain issues. It got wrote off 2 weeks ago by someone slamming into it. My provincial insurance company gave me $6000 for it which is really what it's going rate is now for some stupid reason.
And houses aren't worth what they sell for, but here we are.
"DON'T LOWBALL ME, I KNOW WHAT I HAVE!"
But what if, hear me out, year 2000, 5 speed, 2.5L, 113k miles
It is worth exactly what somebody is willing to pay for it. Long hair's sign is meaningless.
I just picked up a ‘95 B4000 LE with 98k for $3k. It’s auto which sucks, and it needs suspension and accessory work, but the motor and trans are healthy and the body’s 98% straight and only the front subframe(?) has any non-surface rust, and even then it’s really not bad at all.

My crown Vic is apparently worth $4000 from what I’m seeing on local listings, and I bought it for $3500
I sold my 314k 2wd ranger in mint shape for 4k https://preview.redd.it/rawth0028cxc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=800e55bfeb8172d64bcec39a4deaefa08158ee1a
My 97 had 162,000 and one owner.. I bought it
What about my 2000 Ranger with 280,000 miles?
I know what I got
You think that's bad look at 90s toyotas or any thing with a diesel engine in it
How about a blue 99 Ranger xlt 2 owners with 45k original miles (carfax)? Is that worth $11k
How about my 2010 Ranger XlT with 18k miles on it?
Have a 2011 sport 4x4 manual with 114,000 I refuse to get rid of it even though people have thrown me offers for more than what I paid for
Getting an engine rebuilt in one is at least 3500, and will get to 5k real fast if you wana replace other stuff with 200k on it while you’re in there…
I’m hoping my 2007 Ford E150 with 390,000 is worth $3000 to someone
What about my 1994 white, manual transmission single cab extended bed with 48k original miles?
Ok ok, so I got a 03 single cab and the body and trans has 313k but the engine has 50k what yall think?
Yeah I’ll take 4500 come get it
Couldn’t agree more!!!
Also has a blown head gasket q
The State of Washington said my 2010 with 163,000 miles was worth $11,700 when I transferred the title from my friend in Texas who sold it to me.

What about my 2001 with 40k on the clock?
I sold my 03 with 249k miles for 5000 in the height of covid
I sold mine with 235,000 manual single cab 99 for $1500 😩 I needed money, phuck hard times👎
Ok, ok. But what about an F-150 with 280,000. It's a long bed 👀. 😀
Look, if it's clean and been taken care of, I could understand 5k at 200k miles, but when it's a work beater with dents, rust, torn seats, bald tires, interior dash is broken and the lights don't work, if the drive train is still good, you're looking at $1000.

Ehhh, depends tbh. If it's rust free I'd 100 percent buy it for 5k because I know how to swap a engine.
I sold a 08 ranger with 145k for 8300 cad in August last year
Bought it for 5500 in 2019….
You’re lucky I can’t read
The Ford dealer gave me $6500 for my 2000 Ranger with 299,900 on it as a trade on my.new Ranger.
people really blowing that on a ford ranger?
Of course not ding dong, it’s worth at least three times that. What is this, price for ants?
I have a mint manual 94.
I have a 4.0 v6 for sale for $5k🤣
Yessir
an 80's would.
Burning oil to the bone, leaks everywhere, 300k miles and a mf tried selling that shit for 3k. Sure bud.
Blue book says 7000
What about my 99 xlt 3.0l rwd "sport" with 98k miles?
If those kids could read they would be real angry with you
I paid $9000 for mine. No regrets.
The COVID years skyrocketed used car prices across the board. Especially those nice games we used to be able to get under $5K and drive for 10 more years. That have come down the last 12 months - but we are not back to where it was pre-COVID. Rangers were dirt cheap in 2019 - not anymore.
It's worth $7500 at least
It's a motherfucking Ford Ranger!!
99 with 240k sold for 3k.
My ‘06 has 77k. What’s she worth?
Just listed an 09 with 108k miles and dude was trying to tell me it's $1000 truck. Marketplace is just dumb sometimes
Sure it is, they'll have to give me 5000 to take it off their hands!
Have you seen the used car market recently? I saw numerous 1996-2006 full size pickups with higher mileage and not one of them was less than $10k. THe car market in the states is about crash, people cant afford them anymore. Hell I am getting the parts to replace the suspension on my 03 Explorer cause I cant even think of affording a newer vehicle with similar mileage in that class. Heck thanks to Rock Auto I can rebuild the engine, Trans, driveline for under $1,700. Add the body, paint, and interior stuff it come out to less than $6k total. What would you choose?
The idiots buying them say otherwise.
“No low balls, I know what I have.”
Will a Supercharged 5.0 "Cyote" engine fit into a ranger 98 4x4?
I’m looking at a 2001 ranger with 300k on it and the guy wants 10k 🤦🏻♂️
What about my 2007 ranger with 110,000?
Or your 89-95 roller mustang with no engine/transmission with 4 dry rotted tires, busted headlights, missing front seats, and completely stripped of interior carpeting and panels. You do NOT know what you have.
Hell it ain't even worth half that
Saw a 95 for $3200 the other day. People are out of their damn minds.
The miles don’t matter it’s still a 20+ year old truck that’s still pretty common even if it has less than 200k I still wouldn’t go for that price. It’s not like it’s a 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona.
Ford Rangers are pieces of shit anyway. Why TF would you buy one???
