Hi guys, name is 1shot. Local on mustangevolution.com I'm looking to purchase a truck and looking to see if this is a good deal by your standards. 2005 f150 Lariat crew cab 4wd has 90k miles. Dual exhaust, leather heated seats, sunroof, backup sensors, Line-X bedliner. Checked the car fax only one service record for replacement of the brake booster lines. Asking price is 19k is this a deal?

1 Shot, I almost bought a 2004 with several of the same features, but not all with 165,000 on the odometer, but in great shape and really strong and smooth running for $8,500 out the door. I finally found the truck I had been looking for, my '02 (I love the rounded body style) for just a little less right after I test drove the '04. It was a really tough decision but in the end I am extremely happy with my decision on the '02.

Reason why I'm asking if this is a good deal is because I saw a few other trucks the same year model with 100-110k miles on the odometer and they're going for the same price. I need a truck that will last me a good while, more like until this thing vanishes from the face of the earth while.

welcome to the forum!
the price....well, put it this way, you can probably find cheaper, but I would not call it unreasonable by any means, and if it's in good condition and if I liked the truck alot, I'd pay that for it without a complaint.
hope that helps

Thanks for all the input, guys! 20k is kind of my cutuff because I will be trading in a car with a 5k payoff. Trade in value, I should at atleast get 3k for it. Just have no use for a car. That's what really stopping me from actually buying a new one.
