rob-c Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 (edited) Found this truck in towanda p.a. so my wife and I drove down last night to check it out. It’s a 2014 (last year for the steel body that I prefer) 2 door standard cab with the 5.0 coyote engine ( that I prefer over the turbo 6’s) , 3.73 gears , 4 by 4 , 6.5 ft box with the STX appearance package. and 23,800 original miles . This thing hauls the mail, with the 5.0 and 3.73’s I got on it and had to let off as the rear tires broke loose instantly . Come to find out a older gentleman ordered it this way new , so after giving it a thorough inspection it is a very very clean 5 yr old truck .The dealer is waiting on the title and we are squaring away the paper work so hopefully we can pick it up Saturday. All hinges on if they get the title Friday if not then we will be getting it Tuesday of next week. And the best part , I got it for a very good deal..

steve863 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 The F150's typically start falling apart at 24,000 miles. Just kidding. Good luck with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 07 f150 that I bought in 2010 with 30,000 miles on it now has 145,000 and is still going strong. And I have abused that truck on many occasions.

Gencountyzeek Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 My buddy got a new one last year, levled it, rims, and tires. Same regular cab short bed 4x4. Just got the 5star tuner over the weekend. The 5.0l is a fantastic motor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of guys think the aluminum body will last forever, but sadly when the salt works through the paint and collects on a crevice or somewhere under the body/ bed it will corrode holes in the aluminum.

Moho81 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Good grab! I’ve got a 13 F150 super cab with the 5.0 motor and even weighing in at 2 tons that thing still moves! I just clicked over 97,000 miles and it just left me stranded in a parking lot. $75 dollars (fuel pump modulator) and 20 min later I was back up and running. I would have them check on a recent recall for a transmission fix. And if it’s required for your truck have them do it before leaving the dealership. The recall just came out March 4th Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
