Shelby Township here. I'm going to Russ Milne Ford tomorrow to see what kind of a lease deal I can get on a Ranger 4x4 Super Cab, or a F-150 STX 4x4. Jerome Duncan had an ad in the paper, but I wouldn't buy a glass of water from those A$$HOLES. I might look into a Dodge Dakota 4x4 too. My dad is a Chrysler retiree, so I get discounts from 2 of the Big 3. If I can't get a good lease deal, I'll be buying a beater.
The way I see it though, I figure 3,000 is what I'd have to pay for a DECENT BEATER, I can get a 2 year lease for about the same amount. Might as well get something that I don't have to worry about possibly having to dump money into. I've got a 2003 F-150 FX4 Super Crew, but that's what my wife will be driving.
