Need your thoughts on this f150

I have been looking for a 2006-2008 f150 for some time now. Have not had alot of luck.....been looking for a couple months now. They seem to sell fast when I do find one. I want a Lariat or king ranch. Not sure I want to spend the extra money for the king ranch though.

I have found this King ranch a few weeks ago, made an offer on it and we were within $700 and I walked. I see he still has it for sale, which kind of concerns me a bit to. I am 5 hours away, so Im not sure if I want to take the time to drive down to look and it and find its not is the best of shape. There is a large stain on the passenger seat, not sure if it will come out. It also needs tires. Here is the link to the truck.......2008 Ford F150 KING RANCH For Sale In LANCASTER OH - R & R WHOLESALE

It is priced really good, so with the guy still having it, it concerns me a bit and dont want to waist 10 hours worth of driving.
Maybe its just the stain that people are scared of??
What are you thoughts????

Thanks!!!

According to a site cargurus it's market value $23,607. So it seems like a great deal. Without seeing it in person and hearing it and driving you never know. 10 hours worth of driving whoa that doesn't sound good. You never know.

You should try that cargurus site it's great for finding whatever vehicle your looking for. You can search by specifics like what trim package, color, distance from your location. And it also lets you know how good of a deal your getting. Try it before you give up. I searched for months before I found the truck I wanted for around the price I wanted to spend.

Yes, that is a good site. I have been using that, craigslist, ebay and autotrader sites. It seems all the trucks are down in Texas!!

Wish I would have seen this yesterday.I only live 15 minutes from Lancaster, OH. I could have drove down there and check it out for you or at least have had a different set of eyes on it.

I'm in the opposite boat as you. I have a 2005 F150 SCrew and looking for an Excursion (need the room for 3 growing boys). Keeping my truck, its my baby ordered it new and took delivery with 3 miles. She only has 65K on her now.

But I agree everything seems to be in Texas.

That is such a bummer!! I have been going back and forth on this truck for a few weeks. Talked with the guy several times, I just couldnt pull the trigger to drive down there not knowing!! I would have paid you to look at it!!
Thats funny! I am going to sell my Excursion when I find the right truck! The super crews seem to go fast, so I check the sites every day and look for new listings.
