I am looking at a 03 F350 4x4 XLT reg cab V10 automatic. The guy (neighbor) wants 15k for it. It has 32,000 miles and is in excellent shape in and out. It also has a meyers snow plow that he uses only for his driveway and his dads.

Is it worth 15K???

 

It books at $15,800 on KBB (private party), so I'd say its a good deal. Low miles, so you can't go wrong there.

 

I know a guy that had one and he only got like 7 to 8 MPG . Ouch !! So remember that .

 

One of the biggest problems with buying a used vehicle is you don't know it's history. You usually have no idea how it is used or abused. Since this is a neighbor, I assume you won't have this concern. That is a big plus.

 

That sounds like a pretty good deal to me -- especially if you know the owner and that he takes good care of his stuff. I'm usually a little leery about trucks that have been used for plowing, but as long as it's just the light duty stuff you've described I'd say you'd probably be ok.

 

Do it buck! Did you ever get the other one all fixed after pile drivin the deer?

 

It has been repaired and is as good as new (well), Replaced were: left upper control arm/ball joint, 2 inner tie rods 1 outter tie rod, rear wheel cyclinder, rear shoes/hardware, drums,brake line, 2 rearend seals (leaking) and lost duel exhaust magaflow system after mufflers along with both s/steel 4' polished tips. total cost to replace items, 770$

it is time to upgrade...me thinks

 

Sounds like a decent deal, but gas mileage isn't the greatest from what I've heard. Good motor, but sound wierd with dual exhuast due to the firing order.

 

So are you gonna hang onto the F150 too? Did you hit the big 300k yet?

 

I will give it to my son it is close to 293k now and runs so good. OEM clutch (all highway miles)

 

GO AWAY!!!!!

 

Id hold out for a diesel

 

I almost bought an 03 V10 and I thought it was a very solid and smooth combo and if I ever go back to a gas engine it will be to a SuperDuty with the V10 under the hood. The dealer is a family friend and let me use the truck to tow a skid steer one weekend and it had absolutely no problem moving 10k down the highway at 55-60 MPH. If it was my choice to walk away or buy it I would buy it.

 

single rear wheels, or duallie?

 

The one I drove was the single rear wheel version.
