[QUOTE="spirit, post: 760173, member: 1852"] I have a 2011 with high mileage and have not had any problems. I think what is most important in looking to buy a vehicle with 3 previous owners and 70K miles, is to get an idea of how it was treated and what it was used for. I'm guessing owner #1 traded after 2 years of ownership, #2 possibly was speculating with the 7 month ownership and who knows with the last buyer. A good thing to do might be to call ahead and schedule a bumper-to-bumper inspection by the local Ford dealership. They will have the info on the previous owners, what items were repaired / worked-on and possibly some other data that will help put the puzzle together. The last inspection I had done by Ford cost me $125, so it's well worth the money. Those were good inspection tips by Macf. It's tough buying used and out of town to boot, especially with the high price these used trucks are bringing. Rest assured that the prize is well-worth your efforts, but go into the inspection impartially, all you will have invested at that point is a trip to Wichita. [/QUOTE]
