Yeah I looking at the Ford for the MPG. I going to put $25,000 down and when and if market comes back I will take a withdraw and pay it off then. Looking at the extended warrants and don't look to bad. This one on this truck runs out in Aug. I going to go back tomorrow and look at.
My brother in law is stuffing a Coyote into a '54 Ford business coupe.
The car fax in post #21 says personal use. If I'm reading it correctly. It could be they bought it at an auction or the original owner moved out of Cali.
you do not have to buy the warranty from the dealer you are getting the truck from and you have until the day before the factory warranty runs out to purchase an extended warranty. Do some research, there are dealers who really discount them just to bring in a few bucks to their bottom line. I saved over half on my Benz getting a factory extended from a WI dealership.
they got the guy out of the lease early to sell him a new truck. The dealer or Ford motor co put in a dealers only auction and the TX dealer bought it, very common
Yeah , I said fleet , but was thinking lease . Personal use could be a private lease , one owner could be Ford Motor company . I guess my point was the service schedule should be up to date / followed from the time it was new if it is a lease vehicle . With the low mileage it's not an issue anyway .
I pretty much buy all my cars that way, usually from a dealer only auction and mostly "program" vehicles. Program cars are usually ford executive vehicles, they get new ones every year. I have found SR vp, VP and district service managers business cards the glove box of a few that I have bought over the years...good to have a friend in the business.
The thing is the hitch comes out the center of the bumper on factory ones. I did that with mine and had to put air shocks on because it was to low. I will find one.
As long as it is under when you buy the warranty you are good. Every vehicle I’ve bought in the last 15 years or so I bought used, 1-2 years old and still under factory warranty. I add on an extended bumper to bumper 4- 5 year $100 deductible warranty and save thousands over buying new. Just bought my 2020 Colorado for retirement vehicle the same way. I’m having a trailer hitch installed at one of the auto part stores for like $250.
That other over the limit after I ran a check. The only other option within 200 miles I can find is also at Carmax. It pretty much brand new, 2020, 5510 mile and $45,000. I going to have them move it to the closer store by me.
