Wow, that’s really cheap compared to MN prices. Though it isn’t an extended cab and doesn’t have 4WD or ecoboost from what I can tell, the price is actually liveable. I’m surprised it has sync and the tow package for that price point.

This is a little closer to the sticker you’ll see on most dealer lots in MN: http://veteransfordtampa.com/ford-f-150-xlt-lifted-2017-tampa-fl-000th308

A typical truck like the one above with the 3.5 Ecoboost (I’m pretty sure that’s the main option you’d see in MN, not the smaller 2.6 Ecoboost listed on other stickers at veteran’s ford) will run 54-60K in MN.

I totaled my truck in January, I was looking at used pickups and they are way too expensive! A 2012 XLT with the 3.5 ecoboost, 4wd, sync and a few other items was 22K! It had 105K miles on it, the tailgate was dented, the bed was trashed and the engine sounded bad. The other options I looked at weren’t any cheaper, most had pretty dinged up beds, maybe a year newer, about the same mileage and options.

Unbelieveable the price jump since the last time I bought a vehicle. My 1999 F150 XLT (5.4L 4wd) that I bought used in 2004 was 16K and it had 66K miles on it. That same truck today would be about 30 - 32K in the same shape.
