I bought a job 1 2008 f-450 KR last September. DPF delete with a edge tuner. 124,000 miles. Has had several problems in the 10,000 miles I've owned it. Radiator, EGR valve, changed the body bushings hoping to stop the radiators from breaking. Now I have other P code issues. Beware. Love the truck from the firewall back.

I got my job 1 in September 2007. The engine is running great at 113k with no problems. Everything else is starting to wear like tie rods, rear axle seal, and a few sensors. I would buy again.

Looking for a F-350 Diesel (Dually CC LB - if that matters)

Found a 2008 King Ranch with 88,000 miles but it is a Job 1 (Build Date - 05/07) -- it is at a Ford Dealership and they are asking $30,000 - seems to be in great condition. Has most options I want including Navigation.

Also found a 2008 Lariat with 66,000 miles but is a Job 3 (Build Date - 02/08) -- it is a private owner, second owner and they are asking $28,000 - seems to be in great condition also with a small 1" tear in drivers seat (leather). No Navigation but most other Lariat options.

Any opinions? trying to keep around $30,000 and want the DRW,CC,LB.

Why can't I find any 2009's for sale??

Thanks! Roger

I bought mine in May of 2013 and it was built in June of 07.
Minor things under warranty, trans solenoid and egr.
XLT, CC, SRW, 4x4, LWB & drop dead gorgeous. Deleted cat & dpf w/ no hp gains, DPF-R. Bought this beast w/ 51k, now has 114+. It utterly loves dead dinos but isn't too bad if I control the go peddle a lil better. This has been a life long issue, but I digress
I tow a 38' 5er at 12,500 and don't have any issues with it yet
but I've only pulled it 3 times in 5 years and twice with this truck. Not trying to hijack this thread but I really like my truck.
Good luck with your decision.
