What Should I look For? '07 f350 w/5k (yes!) 5k miles

So, I found a local truck for sale. F350, 4x4, 6.0, manual transmission and stupidly low miles. Looks new in the pictures. XLT with no extra options, carpet delete, supercab, short bed.

I have no 6.0 experience. I'm concerned that a truck used as little as this one may be a ticking time bomb with no warranty support.

The price is stupid high at $29k, but I figure that is just to gauge interest.

On the other hand, if it could be bought right, I could be bullet proofed and have one helluva "new" truck.

Thoughts, comments, concerns are welcomed.

Got you fixed.... on the other hand, 29K really? Umm No! You are a step away from 2011 or newer at that price.

Clean retail for this truck, according to the NADA guide is $23,625.00....nobody pays top dollar for a 6.0. My opinion if you have that kind of money to invest in a truck get a used 6.7. jmho

No options and 29k? Wouldn't pay more than 15k if it was studded and had options-and low miles isn't a selling point on these. You could definitely add a few k to that price and have a good 6.7.

in my opinion the fact that it only has 5k miles makes it worth less money than if it had 100k lol, like others said if youre gonna spend 20k+ start looking at 6.7s, i see TONS of great looking 6.0s for 15k and under

I'm going to pass on it. I'd be more serious if it was $15k or so. I would be better off with a crew cab anyway.
