A long way off but for a new Ranger it looks to be a deal.

68.5 for a new Ranger seems like a pretty good deal compared to all the threads here lately.
Seems like it was rigged fairly well.

I wouldn't mind being friends with Craig. He looks to have a pretty solid line up of toys in his garage

Seems like an average deal to me for a 2018 boat even though it does have a 2020 Merc on it.

Yeah and you have to remember that motors are now titled as the year sold. The motor may have been built 2 or 3 years ago and if it doesn't sell this year it will be a 2021 next year.

Just drove to Hamersville Ohio to pick up my new Lance 1172 double slide truck camper “fishing camp” a couple months ago. About 1200 miles each way by myself. Only had a three day window to get it done. Would I drive 2400 miles for a camper....or a boat? Heck NO. Would I drive 2400 miles to save well over $8000 than any new deal I could get anywhere else close or closer? Heck YES! Did!(I’m getting too old to do this much more!🤪) [Linked Image]

I bought my last 2 boats, my RV and my last half dozen vehicles out of town. Can get a lot better deal out of town usually. My average savings has been about $4k. Wimped out and had the RV delivered though.

In missouri motors are titles the year they are built. Common to have a 2020 rig with a motor that was built in 2019 if you ordered it early after the first of the year.

Depends on the state. In Missouri outboard motors are registered by the date they were manufactured.

Nice camper! Every road trip I take, I wish I had something like that in the bed of my truck to pull over and sleep in comfort.

Mercury don't designate year models, only manufacture date. Listing don't say how many hours on the motor. Guessing its been a dealer demo for 2 years now. Mercury will warranty it starting with the date its sold but the tax man will more then likely title it by year of manufacture. Either way you cut it, its still a 2 year old boat with an above average asking price.
