Hey Guys
First time on this board. I am thinking of buying a used F350 with
the 7.3. I was wondering if you knew of a source/website that would give me service record details if I provided the VIN.
The truck is a '99 4x4 Crew-Cab DRW 6sp. with 80K.
Thank You in advance for any help. This is one of the best, if not the best website for Ford trucks.
I'm not sure of service records but a car fax report is a good place to learn about the trucks history, accidents, etc. It dosen't cost hardly anything and I think you can use it unlimited for 30 days.
I did a Carfax report on my truck before I bought it, even turned it into my bank with the loan application. I threw a KBB print out in there too, to show what it was worth. I'm sure all this info helped them approve me, I figured it couldn't hurt anyway.
There's some info where it says Trouble Spots on here.
Best bet tho is to go to a dealer with the Vin and truck info and get a report of the trucks history.
If you are buying thru a dealer, they should give you a car fax as part of the sale to make you "feel better". At least that's what I said when I bought my last one. They were happy to pass one on to me, no cost. I keep it locked up with my ownership ppw.
