[QUOTE="Pwnm30rdi3, post: 1424056, member: 11359"] The "other lemon" was my 1997 7.3. At the surface it was a great truck. The seller sold me a truck with bad rings and low compression. He threw in some thick 50W oil to conceal the problem. When I got home and cold started the truck, I found the issue. I proceeded to tear down the motor a few months later and do a rebuild. Which turned into a performance build. Which had more problems than I care to admit.. :fustrate: Now I am parting the 'ole girl out. As far as years go, you are very correct. I couldn't find any 2013+ trucks in my price range with lower miles. I looked at 3 or 4 other trucks prior to this purchase. Most trucks I looked at in the $29-33k price range were rode hard and put away wet. I drove 160 miles to illinois yesterday to look at a different 6.7. It only had 91k on the clock but had the worst death wobble I have ever experienced. Every brake & suspension component in the front end was trashed. I just picked up this 2011 F250 Lariat 6.7, with 99,000 miles for $33k. This truck was maintained by the same dealer for 80% of its life and had most of the service records to back it up. I thought it was my best bet. [ATTACH=full]168696[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
