questions on purchase
Hi group,
I have a few questions on a 2002 F150. I am wanting to have a vehicle that I can take off road a bit. I will mostly be on trails, but will have mud, water, and rocks. I have a line on a 2002 F150 King Ranch. It has a 5.4L motor short box and crew cab (I think, it has 4 regular doors). Now the scary to me anyway part. It has 130,000 miles. Is that too many? Will this truck be ok for what I want to do with it? I understand it isn't a Jeep, but will it go most places? Now for price, he is asking $7500.
I welcome any input.
Thanks

Id jump on that deal. I got my 03 fx4 with the 5.4 last year with 165000 miles and is by far the best truck I've ever owned. I traded my sportster plus $1500 for it.
And it should take you most places offroad with a decent set of ties and some skill driving offroad.

Ill give you my truck and ill take the king ranch
But really, thats a hell of a deal. I got my 2002 supercab fx4 5.4 with 117,000 for 8400. Clean as a whistle. If u read the forums more these trucks can get up to 250,000 or more as long as they are maintained. Buy the truck.

02 screw
I got my 02 Screw with 150,000 Got her for $8,000 and she's worth every penny originally a southern truck it's in beautiful shape and runs like a champ. I'd jump on a KR for that price if it's in good shape. Good luck.

It depends on the terrain, tires, and the drivers ability to know what needs to be done in certain situations. I have taken my truck on Jeep trails, and been able to keep up them with no problems.

What would you say the truck is worth if it has a bit a hail damage and the paint, almost all of it has little dings that the paint is cracked in 3 lines meeting in the same point almost all over the truck. They are small about the size of a nickle but lots and lots of them.

Depends on how much the guys willing to give you to take it off his hands

I paid 7500 for mine from a dealership and it had 118k so i would try an talk him down with cracked paint and dents everywhere. I know have 130k and she still burns no oil and runs awesome. as far as offroad i drive on ice 7-9 months out of the year and my truck does better than my jeep does on ice. and for mud i hit every mudhole i see and haven't even been close to stuck she crawls through everything.
