U-Haul has F-150's in their rental fleet. They are not a good value because they have very likely been abused.

I'm still confused. I thought I was telling him for a bit more you could get the same truck new and how to do it and that if he was financing the payment might even be less because of the lower interest rate on new vehicles. I agree with you on these trucks not being a good value as to the abuse factor.

I misread your post, I thought you were saying that buying one of those used trucks might work.

Thanks. Are you saying we agree on something? I wouldn't buy one of them. The price is pretty close to what they get them for new. They buy low, run them like rentals and sell them high.

I may go a different route. Brand new focus 5 speeds are around 14-16k new. Throw St wheels on and I'd be set.

And they'd get the best mileage of anything!
