[QUOTE="Craigy, post: 1128265, member: 16960"] Love Dave Ramsey. I listen and watch on youtube all the time. Wish I didn't since I'd probably be driving a new Raptor today :biggrin: I haven't seen everyone's W2, but most local licensed electricians, plumbers, plant workers, offshore guys, you name it, make a good living, as in 50-60k on up to 80-90k+. Way more if their name is on the letterhead. Not the electrician helper or the guy who digs trenches for the plumber though. With overtime, UPS drivers make 90k. And yeah I think you underestimate how much some of those lawn and landscape guys can pull in (I checked their prices and let's just say I am thrilled to cut my own lawn). Could they afford the last gen Raptor? Yeah I think a lot of them could easily. But now that it's crept up into the 60s and 70s, it's a big stretch or simply out of the budget. So yeah moral of the story many blue collar guys who went out and earned and were successful could buy the last-gen Raptor without being irresponsible. Now in 2017 it's decidedly moved to be an upper-upper-middle class truck. [/QUOTE]
