I have an 04 Vert Cobra so I'm not new to the SVT world. I'm interested in a Lightning, there is a01 black 31K miles stock truck at local dealership here in town. I talked to a salesman and I can pick her up for 18K. Good idea? Any major factory faults to look at when looking at the truck? If I do pick it up I know the basic maintenance things to check but not sure where to start as far as performance goes. Any ideas? Sorry so many questions so little time.http://www.thomasautosales.com/mobi...1-ford-f150-hillsboro-beaverton-dealer=460825

Bad thing, even though low miles, dealership is asking way more than someone local selling it. On the site they want almost 25K for it, marked down like thats a deal. doesn't even book that on retail for a used one.

If it's mint, stock, and runs great...I can see 16K for it since it's low mileage. I've seen nice built ones for the same price though.

Thanks guys, this truck has had one owner and i have talked to the salesman, I'm going to walk in with cash in hand for a down payment and ask 16k they ask 19K hopefully fall in the middle somewhere. I enjoy my 04 Cobra, I just want something else to play with
