Default A few questions

I'm planning on buying a 2005 F150 4x4 Supercrew. Now I have a few questions.. My budget is $15k.

1) For 15k how many miles should I be looking for on a truck?

2) I plan on lifting the truck. What would be the best way to go and how much am I looking at all together.

3) I plan on getting rims and tires. How much am I looking at?

4) If I do all this and how much am I looking at to regear?

Dont know about the milage but I just lifted my truck with a 6" BDS suspension lift with the fox racing shox 2.0 and spent right under $2000 bucks. Prices for tires and rims can vary greatly on what you want. For my 35" ProComp Extreme Terrain A/T were $350 a tire and the ATX Artillery rims were $1100. You will only need to re-gear with 37" tires and above.

Of course it depends a little on where you live but I bought my 2005 Supercrew Lariat 4x4 about 8 months ago with roughly 80K miles and paid 17,000. Now my truck is very clean and had a few small extras so consider that plus the fact that it was almost a year ago. I would think for $15,000 you should stay under 100,000 miles and look for a truck in very good condition.
