The guy said his wife gave him the green light to get a Gen 2 and a budget of 50-60k, with a factory warranty I would imagine for that price. Why are you here trying to screw up this guy's dream?

You try and talk him into buying a 40k, 6 year old truck, add 9k in mods, with no warranty? I bet you could also figure out a way to F up a free *******. Congrats.

I was actually agreeing that the Gen 2 is the better truck for his current needs but then you fellas got all irrational and now you're talking about hand jobs on a truck forum populated almost exclusively by men. :shrug:

So I've been lurking and actively searching for a low mileage Gen. 1 for a couple of months. I'm coming from 200k mile, 2003, F350 King Ranch Crew. So I missed out on a low mile 2014 Whipple and have been scouring over the ads everyday. Was looking in the $35-50k range.

The other night the misses was on her laptop and said why are you looking at the Gen. 1 when the Gen. 2 has all this new stuff? I start with the V8 argument and she says V-what? Long story short she says for $50-60k you can get a much better/newer truck. So that is where we currently are at.

So it looks like when comparing apples to apples, the 17's and 18's are very similar. 19's have the better independent suspension but then very similar. So which year is the best bang for the buck and what should I look out for?

Hopefully the Gen. 1 guys won't realize I got out of the pen!

I purchased my fully loaded 2019 in OCT for $69500 OTD before tax tag and paperwork it was about $64,500. You are not far off the price of a brand new one.

She has also taken a liking to the Shelby's and has given the green light as long as it brings in $10k/yr on Turo. But that's a whole new thread.

I dont think I could ever do Turo. I have a problem with people touching my vehicles.
