Great forum! Im new obviously and have been wanting to purchase a diesel for a long time now.
I have been loooing at an 05 F250 crew Lariat. Its at a dealer and it looks like it has had some recent issues. In the last year, looking at the history report, there has been a new turbo, batteries, a "internal seal falure" among other things - all that have been repared.
SO, the quintisential question -
1) If its had that many issues, there will be many more so stay FAR away.
2) Many fixed issue means Ill be in a pretty good spot for a used truck
3) complete crap shoot. Buy at your own risk.
Any pointers?
Thanks ALL!
