2011 KR
Hey all,
I've been lurking here for quite a while soaking up all the info... In the market for a 6.7 lariat, and came across this:
Used Gold 2011 Ford F-350 4WD For Sale | Seattle Truck Dealer | Evergreen Ford
I was palnning on a left over 14 later this year but this may fit the bill...
It appears to be still under warranty, but my worry is that it's a job 1 2011 and I'm skittish about potential problems. I may look at it saturday and ask for a OASIS report. Any other suggestions or should I wait and buy new??? Either way this'll be my first diesel and the plan is for it to be the last truck we buy...
TIA
Dave

I'd bet the time is just about out of warranty or early, My 2011 was built the last month of 10 and it's out of warranty by time only, not distance like the one in the add. appears to be a nice truck.

They have their retail listed at $47,177 but their sell price is listed higher at $47,900. So their deal price is higher than retail? Their retail price is accurate but like others have said, new seems like a better option. And if you plan on keeping it forever, buy the newest you can afford. In 5 years a 2011 model is all of a sudden close to 10 years old. Granted, it will last and still be a great truck but you'll have a warranty longer. I agree about the dealer adding a warranty for their asking price. And then some.

I'll also side with the majority.
That's a great looking truck, and while you could get an extended warranty; for the money they're asking, you might as well buy new.
I wouldn't bat an eye to hop on a plane if I found THE truck I wanted, if the price was right due to regional pricing fluctuations or whatever, and drive it home. They make excellent road-trip rigs

I dont have a KR but I bought a 2011 lariat crew cab brand new for less then that.It was a leftover that I bought in june of 2012 (job2).I agree with the others on this unless you got it for SIGNIFICANTLY less.The add also must be a miss print.Retail is less then the selling price?Doesnt make sense.

FWIW, I paid about 8k less than that for a '12 lariat that was loaded (pretty much every option except moonroof) that had 40k miles.
Even though I got a much better price than this one, I think if I did it again I'd probably save my sheckles and buy new, these trucks hold their value and I've found a few things here and there post purchase that indicate it wasn't looked after as well as I would have liked.
