Although I didn't buy mine through E-Bay , I originally saw it listed there and contacted the dealer, who was local to me , after the auction. His reserve was 29.5 K and high bid was 20. I bought it for $25.0 and got a 7 yr. 75k FACTORY(from Lincoln, not aftermarket) warranty which wasn't offered on the E-Bay sale. sometimes it pays to do business the old fashioned way....
A month after I bought it,I also noticed that the wheels and tires ,although in good shape, were 17" and not the factory 18" size. Since the truck was "certified" for the warranty, they had to put on 4 NEW Michelin's on 4 NEW factory wheels.Cost the dealer $2500.
Mine also came with 2 of those organizers. I thought that was standard. I usually don't use them anyway, the're a pain to get installed right.

I use my organizer all the time. I keep it open constantly but don't usually have it strapped down (it doesn't move anyhow). I keep my helmet in the largest section & another for towstraps & the rest get used for certain groceries that I don't want moving around (eggs, small jars of baby food, bread, etc).

The spare was the correct one. When I was checking the spare is when I noticed the size diff. I knew that it was supposed to have 18's but it didn't click when I was checking tire pressure. Made out like a bandit on that deal. They got 4 half worn ugly Coopers and dinged up wheels and I got a brand new factory set of tires and wheels. I originally thought that I would try to sell them and go with a bigger tire and custom wheel but I decided that I liked the 18"size better.I may still go with a custom wheel, though. Havn't decided.
