And bring back the ****ing small truck.

Also, if they want to get more money and stay profitable. Maybe not sell the gt so cheap. If you sell for 275k and it is flipped for 1.5mill maybe you should raise it to 750k at least?

2nd money idea. Limited release trucks and cars. Say a 1000 a year. This year would be a 1950 truck with updated tech inside it. Next year a 53car.

They're bringing the Ranger and Bronco back relatively soon.

Bronco will have solid axels so should be a very good offroad capable vehicle.

How much would it cost to reconfigure an assembly line to produce something in such limited quantity? That seems like an incredibly expensive and risky proposition.

Ranger is mid sized like the colorado. I believe the bronco will also be off the same platform.

Ah, you meant F100 and old Ranger size

Yeah, it makes pretty much no sense from a financial standpoint.

Right now on a lot in Little Rock at Crain Auto Group there is four 2019 crew cab 4x4 with every option and it is 119k.

Well considering they have tons of lines not being used nationwide they just need to pick one. All of these trucks would also have a premium cost and high profit margin.

You could rise it to 2500 and probably still sell out, might need to have a few more options at this amount.

Most of the designs are already out there for conversions.

If you're thinking you got it bad, try living in a van down by the river! :D

We can't build Raptors here because the frames are 4 inches wider than standard on either side.

Who makes the trucks in that scenario? Temps?

Incredible. I can get 2 Mercedes for that.

Everyone and their brother has bought a new Ford Pickup in the last five years. Now the Dodge and Chevy are starting to cut into their market share because their shit no longer looks dated. Plus, its not like everyone can keep buying 70k vehicles year in and year out.

Yes, the used truck market is insane. Part of the problem is no one buys normal trucks anymore. They're all ginormous crew cab behemoths loaded down with every feature you can think of. When I was in the market a couple years ago I wanted a full-size regular cab/short bed 4x4. You know, something that would fit in my garage. I may as well have been looking for a ****ing unicorn.

And then to find something rust free is a challenge, I don't know what it is about trucks but you're hard pressed to find anything more than 10 years old that isn't rusting all to hell. Meanwhile, my 2002 Grand Cherokee doesn't have a speck of visible rust and neither did the 2005 Toyota Solara that we just recently sold.

I ended up paying way too much for a 2011 Dakota because I wanted something rust free, thing was immaculate with no sign of any rust but within 6 months...here comes the rust bubbles above the rear wheel lips.
