The cheapest X's usually come up for sale owned by municipalities but are usually 2 WD and 5.4 motor with a plain Jane interior. I would also search in a area that didn't use salt on the roads. I bought mine in Texas with zero rust on it.
3.5 tons with a 5.4 seems like a terrible idea. I'd rather have an expedition.
But as i search i find that my goal is in reach. I do private sales and i try to have a lot of communication beforehand, read people, get the story on the vehicle.
I'm talking to a guy now who has one with 210k but he claims he replaced the engine at 87K and the trans at 150k
Sounds suspicious but if it it's true it's a good deal for $4K
