To Buy or Not to buy - On the Fence
I have an opportunity to purchase a 2010 F-150 Lariat FTX (Tuscany pkg.) Crewcab 4x4 for $30,000.00. It has just about ever bell and whistle from a 5.4L to Rearview camera, Sony Radio, and Nav system as well as the standard Lariat pkg items. Awesome truck. My issue is that is has almost 80,000 mile and was used "commercially". That is a lot of mile and the warranty only covers it to 100,000 miles.
Am I over thinking this?

The FTX is a Ford branded by Tuscany. It is the same type of branding and upgrades for an F-150 like Harley Davidson, Eddie Bauer, etc... Ford does use Tuscany to upgrade their Lariats as I have seen brand new F-150 FTX's on the dealers lot. It's actually a Lariat with added upgrades.
Not trying to discredit anyone, but they do exist.

Its good that the truck was modded by an official company but due to the fact it was used as a commercial vehicle it may have a lot of wear and tear.
Some people on the forum posted up lariats with nav from texas going for 32 grand new. Platinums going for 37k. There really is not point buying a 3.5 year old truck with 80k miles for almost the same price.

I got my 2011 with 2,000 miles on it for 39,000. And like the others said tuscany takes the trucks and does their own thing to them. There is 3 more brand new ones right up the road from me, and the asking price start at $59,000 depending which trim level. A little steep if you ask me!
Here's mine
