First glance: rust above the windshield (or paint peeling) and right front quarter is dented and the hood is pushed up a bit. It is also an XLT, and it would likely not "book for $15k" as the poster claims. It also has the 6.uh-oh in it...

Overpriced XLT with 200k+ and a tuner with known motor issues... walk away.

Wheels look like they are plastic. I would pass purely on principle. If the wheels are ugly, God only knows what other ugliness lies just beneath the surface

2008-2010 F-250 front end
