Looking at another F250
2002, Lariate, 4X4, Quad cab, short bed, 122,000 miles, one owner, new tires, new brakes. Mechanic says it will need ball joints in about a year and shocks whenever we can get them. It has tow package but hasn't been used for towing. It will need nerf bars, no big deal.
Asking price is $20,000. Said they will go down to to $19,500.
What do you think?

Confirmation anyone?

the OASIS report can be printed by a service writer at the FORD dealership with the VIN #
do a CARFAX report www.carfax.com enter the VIN # there is a nominal charge. I bought my truck used and the dealer had already paid for the CARFAX as a sales tool for its customers, I was given a copy of it to mull over and I got to keep it when I bought the truck.

lionsteve,
Sometimes people post things in the wrong forum as you probably know. Its
always good to be sure. Since it is the 7.3 and I just bought an 03 with the 7.3, the price sounds right.

We have the last good diesels that Ford made. Friend of mine is a service mgr at Ford dealership and he advised me to get stay away from the 6.0 PSD....too many problems even with the 06's and 07's.
