Got a offer on my KR, Should I Sell?

Well i was at the car wash today and was cleaning the inside and this old man pulled up in a 06ish f150 and kept looking at the truck. After about 5 mins he walked up to me and asked what year it was. Told him it was a 03 and he looked at me like i was on crack , asked me the miles and told him 113000 miles. He said hes not seen a truck in as good of condition as mine and asked if i was looking to sell it. I told him no, he said how about $14,000 dollars and you can follow me to the bank right now. I told him i wasnt interested, and he gave me his card and told me to call him if i changed my mind.

I really dont want to sell my baby but i will never get another offer like that, If i was to sell i would get another KR but i would want it newer as in 04-08 model. I just dont know what to do, its been the best truck i have ever had. Ive put 35,000 miles on it and only things that ive done is battery, alternator, tires. What would yall do?? Here are some pictures of it incase some havent seen pictures of it

If you have money to make up the difference to get a newer KR, DO IT. That seems like a great offer and you probably won't ever come close to that again. Good thing you got those seats done not long ago if I remember correctly. lol

Damn guys i was hoping to here man thats a nice kr dont get rid of it . I know i should do it but also i love this truck, its a member of the family. i know it may sound stupid but still. I dont want sell and then turn around and have issues with the newer model. I read the 04-08 forum quite a bit and seems like there are more problems with these trucks.

not a bad offer, i agree if you're already in the mood for a change, do it up. make sure it's for cash, and not some nigerian prince's bank money order deal

If he's offering $14k, what would it hurt to ask 15? Nice truck though. I think I would be torn also

dude your truck does look amazing, but $14K is a really high offer especially for a 2WD with 135K on it. I'd have to say take the $$$

Yea i've always got good fuel mileage of my truck, would it be possible to get the same with a newer body style 2wd 5.4 3v?

That offer is really good and you'll probably never get that for the truck again BUT if you really love the truck don't get rid of it.
