It shouldn't. It should actually be the opposite. Fleet vehicles actually are maintained on a schedule. Who knows if Joe Blow is getting the oil changed when it should be.


This.

But don't get the 10 speed trans. Google it. There are problems with that transmission's shifting that Ford can't fix.

I don’t think anyone is driving a fleet like an idiot because it’s not their vehicle and their job is on the line.

The only thing to worry about fleet vehicles is that many of them likely sit with the engine on for a long time and AC running but not moving, picture a construction guy. But yeah I don’t think buying a fleet should be a concern these days.

I have been driving one for over two years with no issues. It is a fleet vehicle.
