I looked at every F-150 within a 100 mile radius of BR. Both dealership and Private. With the miles it had it was by far the best price. The closest something came with the same specs and miles(4x4 4door) was like 2k. if anything was the same price it had 20-30k more miles. Didn't hurt it was already leveled with 34" tires.

Should have gone to Houston, and 2k would have been worth it for 2 years newer and 20k less miles.

Make sure your truck has had the upgraded charge air cooler. It was a major issue for the Ecoboost. Should be paid for by Ford.

Also, if I were to go through a dealer, I believe they would have tried to lowball me on the trade in. Selling my old truck privately probably made me more money.

You still could have used that money on a truck at a dealership, but I'm guessing you know that.
