Well, I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of my new F-250 Crewcab, and I was wondering if I should remove the Roush Off Road off my 2007 F-150 Supercrew exhaust before I trade her in. I have only put on about 10,000 miles on the exhaust and don't quite know if it is worth removing it and selling it. I will remove and sell the Xcallibrator and AF1 (3.5"), but with the exhaust, I'm not sure if it's worth the time. Thoughts anyone?

 

I say take it off and try to sell it, Thats money towards a new exhaust for the the SD

 

I'd take it off and post it up on the classifieds. You might be able to pick up a little cash from it. It could end up being a dust collector though, that's what happened with the exhaust from my last truck. I ended up chucking it after a few months.

You might want to ask the dealership when you are discussing the trade in value too.

 

I didn't know that the Roush off-road would fit on the Screw with the 6.5 foot bed. I've been looking at exhausts for mine and none seem to tell whether or not they will fit the longer bed.

 

x 2.

 

Oh, yes! And, it sounds like a truck should. Not overbearing, but sweet. Towed with her this weekend, and it sounds great. I was worried about drone, but I had none. I had problems with the Maggie 16614 fitting my 6.5 footer, so Magnaflow was nice enough to return my money and I went with the Roush.

 

I wouldn't mind helping you out. PM coming your way!

 

Guys... not a big deal having this post here but, please tread lightly and refrain from the "I'll buy XYZ..." types of responses.

Remember, if it turns into a buy/sell frenzy, the threads magically go to la-la land.

Thanks, fellas.

 

Yeah, if you even mention that some people are selling something that you may or may not be interested in buying (in my case, not for sale), then it will be deleted (like my vague mention of demand/availability within the community once was).

 

you could probly pull the CAI, Catback and tuner and sell them as a combo package for $600 or so. Craigslist is a wonderful thing

I've paid $800 just for my CAI and Catback alone. If I were in the market, I'd jump on that price. Who knows, you might be able to put her up on eBay and get more.

 

So wait, you had an F-150, bought a F-250, decided it was too big and got a 2007 F-150, and now you're going back to a 250? Can I have some money please?

 

Yeah, I've been catching alot of hell lately, but with the high miles I put on, it has been beneficial to trade each year. I have a sweet dealer, and a great boss that work with me. This past 2007 F-150 is the first one I sold with low mileage (relative for me - it had only 25,000 miles at six months). Buying a 2007 F-250 now with the large rebates to get rid of "last years models" made it work well for the company - so the Boss jumped at it. It basically cost only a couple grand for almost six months of driving (25k miles), and if the company should decide to run the diesel over a year (about 55k miles), it's value will most likely not be in the pooper like a gas F-150. And should they decide to go 2 or 3 years, well then, all the better.

Oh, and don't get me wrong, I loved the F-150, but it was a financial move... not a "gotta have" (contrary to popular belief ). Realistically, in the past seven years, I have had seven trucks (including this new one). The TOTAL of upgrade charges for the past seven years (trade differences) doesn't tally enough to buy ONE new truck at current prices. If I kept one and ran it seven years, it would have close to 400,000 miles on it - not to mention major maintenance costs (which I have avoided), and would be worth squat. With the miles I put on, dependability is essential, and running a vehicle with 2-300,000 miles isn't where it's at. I play a Ouija board (I call it) each year that watches the trade and resale values, rebates, maintenenace costs, and high mileage deducts. When the moon and starts are in alignment, I make the deal. The worst hit to date was the upgrade from one of the F-150's to a new diesel. But the down trade to the F-150 the year before cost nothing. In fact, we pocketed about $3000. Combining rebates and incentives with below invoice purchases, capped by outright sales of used vehicles and be suprising. And, I usually have people in like waiting to buy my used diesel each year. It's not hard to pull another $4,000 on an outright sale (over trade) on a smoker in my experiences. Just for the FYI column.

 

I'd say definately remove it. I was in the same position (trade in was going to be the same with it lifted or stock) so I went as far as taking the entire lift (Rize 8") off! I wasn't about to loose an additional few thousand...

 

Might as well remove the stuff and try to sell it if you have all the stock parts to go back on.
