How rare is this truck.
I have just started looking for a new truck. I am interested in a 04-08 F150 with a manual transmission.
I found this 2005 ford on autotrader that is the v6 with a 5 speed manual. It looks to have most of the options such as power windows/ locks, cloth seats and carpet, chrome bumpers and two tone paint.
Here is the listing. http://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-s...68922442&Log=0
I am interested to find out how rare it is to find a manual transmission in this body style that is not a bare bones work truck package. I did a nationwide search on auto trader and there was only a few that had the nicer non plastic grille and chrome.
I used to have a 79 F250 which was a great truck but it got destroyed by hail so I am currently driving a 95 Chevrolet but I am thinking about upgrading.

That's a good looking truck. With only 51,000 miles there should be a long life left in it. I would get it checked over closely by a mechanic or yourself if you know what all to look at.
Also get a carfax to see what its history is.

Yes I agree it is a good looking truck. Carfax says its one owner. Its Probably the exact combination im looking for. The only problem is that its a pretty far drive away for me. I was just curious how common a tuck equipped similar to this one is.

When buying used, you can't always find what you want next door.
I would be going on a trip soon if I were in your shoes.

Wow 1600 miles is a haul. This truck is 400 miles away from me in Ohio. I have driven 2 hours to look at a car before but It would really suck if I traveled close to 7 hours and truck was not what it looked like in photos.

manuals are pretty damn rare in that gen let alone anything above base models which would be ultra rare.....you won't find another truck like that in manual very often.
