Does the 5 year/100K mile warranty transfer to the second owner?

I just bought a used 2005 F250 and was wondering the same thing. Is there any kind of paperwork to fill out or anything, or does the dealership just go strictly by the miles/date of purchase?

There's no paper work, it just transfers. The 5 years start from the date it was put in service which is the date it was originally purchased.

The warranty stays with the VIN#, doesn't matter about the past or current owner.

Aftermarket exhaust shouldn't void your warranty as long as you retain the cat.
