Re: What to look for???

Going from memory, make sure the truck was built after May of 03. Prior to that, the engine had C-94 injectors and they were notorious for failures. Regardless of what year you end up buying, always have the VIN number checked in OASIS (some people here can do this, or go to a Ford dealer and have them run it) and see what the truck's history is. If it had a very checkered path, pass! Or wrangle a much better deal.

Good luck and happy hunting,
Brian.
