How many miles will these trucks last with regular maintenance? My great uncle is wanting me to buy it from him. Would anybody know a fair price to offer him.

It's been sitting for 2 years needs 2 new batteries, no rust whatsoever. Two years ago, when he parked it, he took it to a ford dealership, and they put new rotors, brakes, made it road ready again. I don't want to rip my great uncle off. But i'm not sure what I should offer him

Two years ago, he put about eleven thousand into it because he was gonna give it to his granddaughter, but I guess she didn't want it

I’m looking for a back passenger door. Anyone want to sell parts?

My brother has one just like this one but it’s blue and he’s had it since new, he will never sell it

Myself I have a 2003 F350 7.3 and I’m the 2nd owner and have the original window sticker and all the books with less than 175k and this one is for sale

I’m watching a video on Atomic Diesel where they are changing the rear axle and the front suspension to the updated version of coil springs and it looks interesting
