[QUOTE="Voyager005, post: 1416242, member: 38094"] Hello, First time posting on here and on mobile so apologies for any mistakes. I am looking into buying a 2013 raptor but its got a few problems and I wanted some advice from you all here. The truck has an excellent interior with pretty much everything I can think of which is great. Exterior has some light scratches running down the side probably from some trees or something but they're not too noticeable. Both front and back brake pads need replaced. Exhaust has a large dent roughly under the driver seat with rust in multiple spots as well as a large section (about 5 feet or so) having been replaced right around the middle. The left front sway bar end link is also bent. It does have a whipple supercharger installed on it but the radiator has a small leak at the top from the fan bolt digging into it. The dealership offered to take 1k off the price due to the radiator bringing it down to 33k from 34k. It has about 86k miles on it and 3 owners, looks like the last owner was a little rough with it based off the radiator, sway bar link and exhaust damage. Might be missing something but thats everything I can think of at the moment. I can upload photos tomorrow when I get a few if you guys want to see what I'm talking about with some of the damage. What do you all think? For reference, the truck I have currently is perfectly fine with zero issues, only reason I'm even still considering it is because I've always wanted a raptor (especially a V8 since I don't quite care for a V6) and its got the supercharger which is fairly expensive on its own. Current truck is a stock 2013 GMC sierra 1500. *edit* Forgot to add, current trucks at 71k miles so it'd be a 15k mile increase. [/QUOTE]
