Newbie. Just a question..
I am going to look at this F150 in a little while thats for sale..
2003 XLT Black ext. Grey int.
13,000 miles
4.2 V6
Extended cab Stepside
im pretty sure its a 2wd if its a v6, correct? the ad does not say
power locks, windows, mirriors, keyless.
He is asking 13,500 (private seller)
Does that price seem too good to be true? what are some things to look for when I go look at it to make sure it wasnt rolled back or anything?
thanks alot. Mike.

According to KBB, this price is just about in line for private party sales. If you are seriously considering purchasing this truck you should get the VIN and pull a carfax report. Carfax is well worth the money. As far as the odometer, the info for mileage is stored in the computer so they really can't be "rolled back". Hope this helps and welcome to the best F-150 site on the net.
