135k Mile SVT Raptor

[cpayne3]

Looking at buying this 2012 SuperCrew first gen with 135k miles on it for 23k “obo” from a dealer. Assuming nothing is wrong with it currently, is this a good deal? It looks like a good deal when looking at other listings. Thanks

Front bumper either isn’t OEM or the guy decided to only paint match that ONE part. Orange flag.

Might be,but just know these are expensive trucks to upkeep..so I'd look over all the maintenance records..135K..shocks done?that will set you back $3K-$4k.....I just did complete maintenance on mine which has 78K on it....didnt want to wait for the 100K Shocks,Tune-Up,New Wires,Trans and Cooling Service,All New Brakes:rotors-calipers-lines...Local shop did it,not Stealership...labor and fluids $2500....Shocks,Brakes,Plugs,Wires..etc that I bought ..lost track at around $4K...So,make sure it not only has "no problems"..but that it was maintained....easy to drop $6K-$7K if not...
Good luck..they are fantastic trucks..wouldnt of just dropped $7K into mine if not...plan to keep forever or until they pry my cold hands off the steering wheel..

Looks like a color match bumper on that. Nice and shiny. See if you can acquire maintenance records, Carfax anything to give you some indication of maintenance for the vehicle. 132K miles is not a lot these days but you should be careful because a lot of Maintenance items should have been done already. Or just buy your own Carfax report to see what it indicates any accidents past issues with big maintenance items. Let us know.

Where is it? Possible rust?
Get records.

Rust, it is the big thing to make sure you don't have. Check cab corners and rocker panels thoroughly. Best to take it to an independent mechanic to check it out.
