Looking to get a pre-owned F-250(or 350) with a 6.7L. I have 2 local options and wondering which is the better buy...

Assume both trucks have very similar options.

2012 w/ 58k miles @ $34000
vs
2015 w/ 88k miles @ $32000

This will be a farm work truck and probably not tuned. (I could get into a 6.0 or 6.4 for less money, but seems like 6.7 is a much better engine imo)

 

Hard to say considering you didn't give much info....Most seem to think the 2015 and newer 6.7's are better choice since they are version gen 2 of the engine.

 

Basically I'm just looking on input about which engine is the better choice considering the price and miles. I already know either truck would work well for me.

 

Take the 2015. I wouldn't worry about those extra 30,000 miles if all else is equal.

The 2015 is a gen 2 engine and has a few minor tweaks that make it a better engine.

 

I'd have to agree, the Gen 2 6.7 in the 15 has the newer turbo and is overall a better engine considering the upgrades. The 12, if it's the original turbo, expect to be replacing it sooner rather than later.

 

This is the 2012

I've actually got a deposit in on the '15 but checking for last minute input before I cut a check haha.

 

Cut the check LOL

 

If everything is good with the '15, go with that year.
