35k for a truck with 62,000 miles! Seems to me someone made a mistake. You can buy new for very close to that. If they gave you 35k they would probably try to sell for 40k, which is a brand new truck. Something doesn't add up. I'd say 30k for your truck is very reasonable. Was it a 3/4 or 1 ton or diesel?

I'm sure, but thats why I'm confused. I paid 38k for my brand new FX4 before trade, TTL. Seems others around the country have paid about the same. Just puzzled by it I guess.

I wish that's what they were down here but they sticker in the upper 40's. Rebates may get you into lower 40's driveout

Msrp was 49, 500 - 4, 000 for rebates - $6, 000 dealer mark down made it 39, 500 to top it off they gave me 1, 200 more for my trade than anyone else. There are deals to be had, just have to time it right.

I have what may seem as a left field questions. I have only had the limp mode issue one time with my truck. It is the ECO. I went to a car wash for the first time the day before and it sprayed underneath. I wonder if the two are connected?

Might work if you did it long enough but self serve washes get expensive spraying water around for a half hour.
I don't think its related, unless you were in there for a very long time.

Mine has to be driven for a couple hours at a steady speed in rainy weather for it to fall down. But it will. I wash mine many times with the engine running, and haven't had a problem. I go through the auto a lot due to my work and always leave it running. Never have a problem, of course I punch it and make it do a dooooooo-woooooop after coming out too, just because I like to

No mistake. It was a loaded 2011 LTZ Z71. I'm sure some of that 35k was shown in lieu of discounting MSRP on the one I bought. You think 30k for a 2012 fx4 with 40,000 miles is reasonable? Stickered for 48 something. It may be. I looked at blue book on mine and that is what the blue book value is on the truck in poor condition. The deal they were willing to give me on a 13 was exceptional, but I didn't think the trade offer was fair. Just my opinion. I will probably just keep the truck now that it runs ok and see what happens. I was just shocked at the quick depreciation. I didn't plan on trading this one for a few years. I just thought I'd check into it since they called an said they'd take care of me on a 13 and after all the issues with the engine and the most recent with the rear end I figured it was worth a shot. I'm just worried that all te shaking and hard shifting, up and down, might have hurt other parts of the drivetrain. Maybe not? I guess time will tell. Just not a good experience with my first ford but even in saying that, I do love the truck without the issues
