I am looking for a 97-03 SCREW, I had a 02 scab that was 2wd and I unloaded it (regret). I really wanted a 4wd and still do. I am now truckless I have been looking for a replacement for about a year know. I found an 03 screw 4x4 king ranch, interior is easily a 9-10 (has aftermarket radio). The exterior is in just as good shape nearly flawless. The bad 190K on the clock. The asking price is 7k....I guess I need to know if that kind of mileage would/should be a deal breaker. Thanks


Sorry I did not use search.

That's well under private party book - which is about $9500 assuming it has a 5.4.

 

Ok, the mileage is no biggie?.....Man the seats are nice!

 

It was a bust, seats were extremely dry, still looking.

 

To my limited knowlege? If the seats are not split, You can oil them, You have to work at it, but they can be softened, & brought back.

 

Yup, if not cracked or torn, the seats can usually be brought back to a decent condition (I used leather CPR on mine).

 

The King Ranch forum has detailed threads on how to care for the KR leather.

 

thanks

 

It really depends, I bought my truck at 5k, it is a '97 F-150 with 160k miles (at the time), 4x4 extended cab short bed. Given the facts that it is an 03, with less than 190k miles with aftermarket pieces, I would say 7k is well worth it. Plus the nice cow leather on the interior is a great bonus. It just depends on how the truck performs on a test drive.

 

I don't think that level of mileage should be an issue in the year trucks you are looking at, mine has 191K and still runs like a top.
