blueskies - 2017-06-10 2:48 AM So I found a gas 2012 Ford F-250 just over 100,000. Was a company truck with full maintainance records gooseneck ball, tow package, auto, very clean and with new tires I could get for $10,000 the only drawback is that it's not a crew cab it's a quad cab. But rarely do 3 people go anywhere with me and I have a car as my daily driver. Does it sound like a good deal ? It is extremely clean and good shape.
100,000 miles on a gas truck. I wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole. The problems will start now with the motor. I am partial to the cummins diesel, as the engine will outlast the body. You will be doing front end, rear end, etc but the engine in general is solid.
Um, no. Gas motors are good for 300k+. The "100k means dump it" went out with carburetors.

Agree!  I bought my '97 F250 gasser (V8) in 2007 with 101k miles on it.  I still drive it now, 10 years/37k miles later.  I've put maybe $1200 into it over the years (not including oil changes).
