If I am being honest, this wouldn't be something I am interested in. I had E36 M3s back in the day, but in general, I am not a big BMW fan. Especially the luxury SUVs.

Merica' trucks all the way for me if I go the route to get the tax write off.
No worries at all. As with any manufacturer they are not for everyone and we all have our likes and needs. Best of luck!

I am actually thinking of keeping the GT350 and getting a Ford lightning electric truck possibly as an option so I can get the write off.
Aren't those lightning trucks unicorns? Or at least as hard to get as a Bronco?

My Lightning truck will be made on May 4thšŸ˜Ž. Excellent Idea and wound pass on the TRX. I drove it and nope nothing there and trust me I have purchased close to 200 vehicles in my lifetime. Lightning truck all day everyday.
Gonna follow your thread in that forum. I'm torn between several trucks right now, including the Lightning. But I'll keep the 350 till it blows up probably. :party:

Once production picks up on them, it will get better. I think Ford wasnā€™t expecting so many people to be interested in one.

I have thought about this as well because my OCD likes the idea of having two 5.2 V8s in the driveway.

If I had to choose between my old Raptor or my Shelby, I'd prob let the GT350 go. Maybe not , but I'd have to think real hard on it. 9mpg in the truck hurts though for long trips...TRX is about the same right?

I love my truck though. I used to do trail rides all the time, mudding in Florida, dirt roads in NH,. Jumps in the sand pits. Now though...she hasn't seen dirt in a long time, and street driving it isn't the most exciting thing in the world. Do get to see a lot of gas stations though. would be hard to pick..GL.

To give everyone an update, I ordered a TRX from Mark Dodge and got a screaming deal at $82k for a TRX with the level 2 on it plus a bunch of other goodies. $15k cheaper than what it would have been from the local dealer here. Big shoutout to the guys here that suggested them to me.

So if anyone is looking or knows anyone that might be interested in a 2018 GT350 let me know! I put the link below of the Craigslist ad.

Start driving the GT350 every single day and get as much enjoyment out of it as possible before it sells.

Nice deal. How much it was less than the MSRP and the invoice?

I'm at the same boat, trading my 2019 GT350 to a TRX. Until now I can see that the GT350 is holding its value very well.

I finally got my TRX, I've never had a vehicle this nice. It is transportation and has reminded me why I went 6spd zl1 over waiting for the GT500
