Used F150: 05, 06, 07, 08?
Hello,
I have searched through for similar questions- have not found any, and would appreciate some advice.
I am a US Service member deployed to Iraq- I will be buying a new F150 when I return this spring. I love the new 09's- but I can't see paying that much for a new truck. The price kills me.
My last F150 was a 92 SuperCab, with the inline 6, XL, 5 speed manual. I loved that truck. I had it for 15 years. I also think I have earned an upgrade.
My question to the Group: What years of F150 are the best to look for in a used F150? I can see very little real difference in these years- I am looking for an FX4 or a 4WD XLT/King Ranch. I suppose if there are any 08's left around in April, they will be giving them away, so I won't count out a new one either. I have priced out the 09 FX4, and about the best deal I can get through the military is 33,000. What years between 05-08 should I stay away from?
Thanks
