It doesn’t look like the “first owner” should even be an owner. Looks like the dealership had it for 600 miles and sold it to its first owner...

Zhammy - Does your oxford have orange accent interior? That is one of my must-haves and it’s why I got excited when I found this used one..

I have found a few AGs for good prices with the orange accent interior and I love the color, but have a buddy with one....

Some states won't allow a vehicle to be sold as new if it has more than 500 miles. That could be what happened here if the dealer used it as a demo or personal vehicle before selling it to the public.

Definitely wait, or even wait a bit longer. The 2017 model has awful problems from the ramp 59 fiasco, so if you have to have ecoboost, go 2018. Or, just wait for the next version at this point.

You all need to disregard everything this "MGD" says. He used to be sasquatch77 here, then got banned. He's too busy trolling Ford Ecoboost internet sites to do his homework and then failed 7th grade. He isn't old enough for a drivers license, much less a fancy truck.

$2400 off for a used 6k miles 2017 doesn't sound like a very good deal to me. If it was still brand new it would be an alright deal I suppose, but with these being very attainable at sticker (or under) for a 2018 I'd say you are better off waiting.

Wait. You're completely acting like buying a used 2017 is the same truck as buying a new 2018. The day you get it, it will be worth less...and every day from there on out. Model years matter...and 2018 is preferable to 2017. Not much changed, but new and not the 1st year of the run...plus, plus.

Now if you said you started hunting around and found the same or better optioned truck, brand new on a dealer lot nearby...I'd say go for it. Of course, assuming deposit is not an issue. And maybe work with the same dealer to deliver the truck.

Thanks for all the advice guys! I'm going to hold off. I might still look around for a new one on a dealer lot, but I agree, it is best to wait.

Thanks again!

Agreed! Raptor Finder is a great site, but apparently oxford white 802a with orange accent and no tech / sunroof is not common, at all... I’m a cheap bastard, but need those orange seats!
