    That sounds a bit closer to reality.. I'm guessing that the truck is plain jane. And it's been loaded it's entire life (a grocery getter that had to work).

    It just didn't sound right. I picked up a '17 F250 loaded XLT 4x, straight and clean, for 22k last month. Had to look a bit, but I can't see an F150 being comparable.

    The quotes are ZIP - depended, but that should not make huge difference.
    For my ZIP it is coming to $12k trade value, or up to $17k market value for truck in good condition.
    That is for basic 2WD Supercab.
    1 for sale at local dealership is priced at $19k having 98k miles. link
  • Well doing a bit of looking it seems that the ,Truck a 2017 Ford F150 XLT SuperCab with the
    5.0 Liter V8 Engine is about $24000 and the camper you can buy for About $11000 US

    This may be what they are basing their value on.

  • It's convenient, which probably makes it attractive, but not a good deal. Blue Book the truck only..that'll be an eye opener I suspect.
  • I have seen 1 of those rental TC at the campground
    -no jacks
    - 6 ft long floor and no slide.
    -only very basic stuff in it
    Thanks, but no thanks.
    Rental truck with 127,000 miles?
    Do they have records of oil changes?
  • You won’t be able to bring a whole bunch of extra stuff but the truck and camper should have been maintained well.
