Looking to get a 2008-2009 f250 srw
I found this vehicle seems to be very clean
2008 King Ranch sunroof, factory navigation system, back-up camera and alarm, heated memory seats, 6-CD disc changer, painted tool box, spray in bed liner, new tires, 2 new Motorcraft batteries, dark tinted windows, electric rear window, electric folding/extending mirrors
90,000 miles
Is $28,500 a good price
How will it how it's value, if I keep for 2 years and it has 115,000 miles what do you think it would be worth
What questions should I ask
Anything I need to be concerned about

 

Would love to hear opinions

 

Was there a maintenance schedule? If the truck had oil changes every 3500 to 5000. dif, tranny, coolant, fuel filters and other maintenance items were performed on time then it would be a good truck past 100,000. If none of these items were documented than the risk goes up. Does the dealer have the factory detail of maintenance performed? Did you get a Carfax report? I wouldn't buy a used diesel without a detailed maintenance schedule. Just my 02 cents.

 

What Rich said above times 2 plus, these trucks lose a lot of value when they pass 100,000 miles and are out of warranty. There are several things that can fail and cost a lot of money so owning one out of warranty is sort of a craps game. If you avoid a big dollar failure you win. If you blow up something that requires a cab off repair with lots of new parts you better have deep pockets. As to the price, with 90K on it I think I'd work on the seller a bit. Now if you could get some kind of extended warranty that would actually pay for engine repairs with it then you got a good deal. And, again i can't stress enough that the maintainance must have been done and done right. if they can't prove it then I'd walk. If it's on a lot and came from the auction then they have no idea and neither will you. Good luck

 

Is it a 4x4?

 

Yes It is a 4x4

Thats a pretty good/fair price. Like mentioned above, once they get out of warranty, people get real skiddish about them. With that, the prices drop.

 

I too would want some detailed info, plus an extended warranty since you don't know the history.

I'd see if I can tow with it too up a moderate grade so you get a chance to run it hard for a few minutes and see what it does.

 

got the oasis report
1. installed venturi tee
2. reprogram PCM TCM and 1C
3. replaced thermostat,exhaust leak
4. replaced fuel pump
5. Lower radiator hose leak

 

Not no enough information. fuel pump problem could mean someone not changing filters which is not good. Ford has an online system that end users can input their service even if they are a DIY service. If there is not significant mileage based service intervals in this sytem, I would walk away or get a great deal on it. As was said before, 100,000 miles without good service is a timebomb.

 

Assuming the ff werenot changed often enough, the pump was put in 21000 miles ago
Could it mess anything else up, or it was replaced and all is good?

 

Injectors would be next.

 

I can add a bumper to bumper
4 year 48000 mile warranty from my credit union for $2100
Does that make the price too high for the truck

Also it was manufactured apr 2008 so it is a job 3 truck
And was sold December 2008

What should I do?

 

Its up to you. Get the warranty. One cab off repair is two grand on these things. It doesn't sound like you have detailed maintenance records which is unfortunate but it sounds like you really like the truck.
