Smile Trade question

Do you guys think it would be worth it to trade my 02 F150 4x4 xcab with 110xxx for a 99 f250 xcab longbed 4x4 powerstroke with 105xxx? Now I get about 14-15 MPG. Looking for more power but better mileage at the same time.

I found one for sale for 11k but KBBs are no where near that.

I want to get some input before I do anything. Thanks

In my opinion yes, but make sure the super duty is good and make sure it has no problems the 99 is the 7.3 right? im not a huge superduty know it all. But the 7.3 is a badass engine.

its rare to find a 7.3 with that kind of mileage now a days...id say go for it but look over the truck very closely...check the trans fluid, oil, etc...want to make sure the truck was taken care of other wise you may open a can of worms
