Cut down a CUV/SUV and make that the Ranchero.

The new Ford truck looks to be almost the same size as the Ranger. But assuming it's a few inches smaller. The dash looks a lot like the Ecosport but not surprised about that really, using the same parts drawer for many of their current vehicles makes sense in so many ways. Am sure they'll sell a boat load of them to folks like me who just want a small vehicle, something under 176", with a lot of versatility. Big vehicles are no longer the norm for so many of us who don't need or want all that extra wasted space. And with a smaller vehicle hopefully will come higher mileage, a win/win for us all.

I just don’t understand with the little bit of miles you put on to get something that isn’t exactly what you want to save a few bucks in possible out of warranty repairs. Even the most unreliable cars are pretty safe to 50K miles. That’s ten years, but then you’ll have most likely traded out.

One way to do that is leasing. But the thing is that if you get a good lease payment offered to you, that often means the residual at the end is artificially high, more than what the vehicle sells for 3 years or so on. That means buying the car at that point becomes uneconomical because you are paying more for it than the market value, maybe thousands more. So what always happens is that the dealer will put you into a new lease with an attractive payment for another 3 years. Great, except that it is very hard to get off the leasing train once you get on, so you are always making a monthly payment. If you aren't driving a whole lot, it makes even less sense.
For someone in your situation with little mileage accumulated each year, a purchase makes more sense, it seems to me. Buy the vehicle, add an extended warranty if you want, and keep it for 6, 8 or even 10 years. The repair costs you might encounter over that time, given your low mileage driven, should be far less than those monthly lease payments. If you're like me, it is the desire for something new and different that will push you into a new vehicle eventually, not the repair costs.

Sandy, the Maverick is about one foot shorter than a ranger, but also 8-10” narrower. So much smaller footprint and should be a lot more maneuverable.
I agree with the others. Get what you really want. Worry about any warranty 3-4 years down the line!

I am waiting for an appliance company to make a line of aggressive toasters and microwaves.
The grill, the black wheels, the kick up at the rear door and the fake vent looking thing under the headlights is so full of fail.
Doesn’t matter they will sell as many as they can make.

To be fair the Silverado has that same kick up in the rear too. Just noticed it on my neighbors truck

I don’t think there is a vehicle in the Hyundai lineup I don’t like. I’d buy another one in a minute.

I’d cringe to buy a Kia in our area.

Sharp looking, but looks much longer than the Pilot.

Looks good from the back.
Haven't visited the local MB and BMW stores yet (former only for maintenance), as 95% of their inventory seems to be CUVs.
