Guy at work wants to sell me his 2003 Ford Expedition XLT. He is the original owner, it's practically flawless. Leather, sunroof, factory dvd player, ac and heat, keyless entry, power seats, loaded to the max an XLT could get done. Has a 5.4 triton and is also a 4X4.
He said he'll sell it to me for $3k. He knows I need something to haul my boat with since my truck is 2wd and I want the added security of 4wd. I know 2wd is fine to load a boat at the boat ramp, but I have the worst luck in the world and can't risk anything happening to my baby (I grew up riding in this truck with my dad going to baseball games, etc).
Sounds like a good deal, right?
Wellllllll it has 246000 miles on it lol I'm a firm believer in the saying that a car will run as many miles as you want as long as you maintain it, but a quarter million miles?
Any of you guys have experience with these beasts and what's some common problems I need to look out for? Obviously he's taken remarkable care of it to have had it last this long and it to be the shape its in.
I feel like $3k is a steal even with the mileage...what do I do?!?!?!
