Looking at a low mileage '15

As the title says, I'm looking at a low mileage '15. Its an XLT, I'd prefer a Lariet but I'm on a budget. The truck is at a non ford dealer and he doesn't have the window sticker. I'd like to see how it was equipped out the factory. I've searched on line but haven't been able to access it. Does anyone have access to the window sticker and OASIS report? The VIN is 1FTFW1EG5FKD45316.
Thank you all.

Well that was easy. I noticed the VIN was high lighted on my post so I clicked on it and the VIN decoder showed me everything I wanted to know.

I don't think it's entirely reliable.. incorrectly said mine was s short bed. Also, the MSRP was off by $12,000.

Good to know. For those that are in the market, what kind of prices are you seeing? This is a '15 Screw XLT 4x4 with 3.5. It has 18k miles and they are asking $29,995. Which is a bit high to me, at least for an XLT.

You should be able to get close to or equal to that amount off MSRP on an XLT brand new if you haven't looked into them. As with anything, the bugs are mostly worked out by the end of the second year, which is why I waited for a 16. Not that the 15s are bad though.

Considering 2017's are nearly here, that's a two year old truck. If it was me, it would have to be CONSIDERABLY cheaper than brand new to even consider it. Used truck markets are a very local thing, so I can't comment on that price, but I think brand new couldn't be much more.

With prices being the way they are right now... I'd buy new.

I think that price is pretty good; if I could have found a deal like that last year I would have bought it. Everything used with low miles like that was at least $32-33K. For accurate build info, type the vin into www.etis.ford.com

I paid $33,500 for mine brand-new, MSRP was $46,395.

It has the 301A package, 6.5' bed, this is actually a pretty good deal.

Im seriously considering it. A friend has a custom shop that installs Katzkin leather among other things. He quoted me $1100 to do the seats, front and back, in two tone leather to match the two interior plastic panels of the truck.

That price doesn't seem to be too far off to me but I'd still ask for more of a discount. That's just me, I'd get a discount on a loaf of bread just to see if I could.

Used trucks are hard to find a bargain on without serious deficiencies. I sold a '13 5.0 XLT with 17k Crew for 32900 over the weekend. Now it was a CPO. We make a little less than $1k on the transaction, so they just aren't going to be cheap. A new truck would probably be about $5k more, but that's also an honest $100 a month. While I think new is the way to go, I certainly understand being on a budget!

That's nuts....I paid $33,700 for my '13 XLT CCSB EcoBoost brand new. I was seeing similar prices a year ago, which is why I ended up buying new.

Tom, between them holding their values and the price of new going up around $1k a year and general inflation, you're absolutely right. They are selling close to their new prices on retail. Retail deprecation is not far off from the cost increases. Now we got that one at auction so we have less room to play. On a traded unit we would likely have been able to do a little more for the folks.

What website did these truck listings come from?
