how many miles is too many on a F-250

Hi guys im in highschool and wanted to buy a f-250 i have a small landscaping business so i would like to use it to plow im on a budget an it seems all f_250s are high miles and i was wondering how high is too high again im in High school so dont need anything too fancy

Heres a few I saw:

2005 FORD F250 SUPER DUTY EXTRA CAB 4X4 CLEAN RUNS AND DRIVES GOOD !!!

1991 Ford F250 4x4

2003 Ford F-250 4X4 PERFECT PLOW TRUCK

you get the idea also what should i look for while looking for a truck

Go for the 05. No such thing as too high of miles, its all about how the truck was maintained.

270,000 miles, original owner. When I got the truck it was a nice truck. When I look at these new trucks with all the new technology, I've got to get me one of these. I'm trading her in for a new one sometime in April.

Listen for exhaust manifold leaks, specifically on the passenger side. Also inspect front tire wear for possible worn ball joints.
