Default Please help

Hi, I'm new to the forum, The reason I'm here is to hopefully get some info. I just bought a 2001 F150 XLT with 115xxx miles, single cab, short bed, step side, with a 4.6, and auto trans. I bought this with the hopes of flipping it, but I can't find a truck on Craigs like mine. I live in central Ca. Is this truck rare or not desirable? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. ps I'm debating on keeping it. Just because I can find another like it.

There's really nothing about that truck that would make it desirable, outside of it being a Ford. Perhaps if you were to tell us what you paid for it, we could let you know if it's worth flipping. But you could just as easily do that yourself IF you really want to know. From here it looks to be about as base as you can get really...no bells and whistles so to speak. I hope you like it.

Check it out on kbb.com.
That'll be your base. Like the other guy said; unless you put work into it and modifications; you won't get more than that.

Looks in good shape though.

It is not rare at all. It looks to be in good shape.

Good luck on your sale. Shouldn't be a hard sell.

Thanks for the info. I did check kbb and Nada and I should be able to make a good profit. However I can't find one for sale to compare it to. I guess I'll wait for the title and see what I can get. Thanks again.

Like I said before, without knowing what you paid.....can't help you.

Regardless, good luck.

Just remember with KBB that it is a starting price, a vehicle is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it.
