Oasis report?

I have heard people talk about oasis reports but I am not sure how or where to ask for them. I have a truck I am thinking about buying but I question why the price is so low. the list the vin as 1FTWW33P75EB03994. If someone could run this I would appreciate it

Thanks

We don't have an official source for Oasis reports here at FTE. They clamped down on that for copyright reasons. Sometimes you can sweet talk one of the techs to run one for you.

But I think your best source is your local dealer service desk. Just walk in when the desk isn't too busy and tell them you are looking at trucks and plan to have service done in their shop. If the service advisor is any kind of gentleman he will be happy to look at the report with you and maybe even offer advice and translation. Maybe even ask them to inspect the vehicle for you before you buy. You need to have that done with any vehicle anyway.

Considering this truck has the full banks package on it I'd be scared to death of the heads. It's a nice truck, but I've heard horror stories about what the banks tuning does to heads, and I'm not talking about head gaskets.

Thanks for the info everybody. What does the banks do to the heads. This truck says it has had the head modification done and until I can talk to them I am thinking they had arp studs installed.
