  • With only 45k miles and probably pulling most of it's life it would not even have any injector stiction or over heating issues with the EGR/Oil cooler yet. Engine is almost "new".

    Pretty sure it's not worth $50k US dollars though.

    A similarly equipped 2018 to 2020 truck would be near (or over) $100,000. The thing to remember F450, F550 & F650s were designed for fleet service. Reliability is key to sales. These trucks will provide nearly trouble free service for 300,000 plus miles with proper care and maintenance.

    6.0 is the deal breaker. Otherwise the truck would have sold by now.

    Problem I choke on is paying $50k for a 12yr old truck...even if it is in good condition with low milage.
    x2. Outrageous.
  • I was thinking more like $5,000. Nothing there I would want especially with that weak 6.0 engine. That's going to be around awhile.

    If they did the upgrades, it's probably fine.



    Since he listed additions in fine detail, I doubt that bullet proofing was done.

    I would have to agree with Valhalla on this. With the 6.7 Diesel available now I can't see spending that kind of money on old technology.
