High Miles? Buy or Pass?

[911 Crazy]

pass. for 33k there are damn near new trucks to buy. don't get hung up on the whole raptor mystique........it's a truck.

Nice knowing you.

You should be able to buy at rock bottom prices next month. Just make offers leave you # and wait.

To the OP, welcome to the Raptor forums.
$33k out the door isn’t terrible but far better deals can be had right now.
2013 with 100k+ miles I would check KBB & NADA bottom book trade in value.
Dealers usually pay less.

Keep looking and good hunting!

It’s funny how expensive these trucks are in the USA. Back in 2017 I bought a 2012 with 30k miles for $25,000. One owner, like new. But I’m in Panama. I was actually in the market for a used Toyota Hilux diésel, but those are more expensive than American trucks here. No one wants the big gas V8s here. Lucky for me I guess! Amazing truck BTW, totally recommend. Only mods I did: mid perch, raptor liner on flares and rear wheel wells, 5 star tune. The truck already had roush cat back and k&n cold air. I’ve put 25k miles on her so far. The only problems I’ve had: oxygen sensor failure. After replacing all sensors I finally figured out it was a grounding issue....wire was rubbing on exhaust. This year I replaced all my coils...only two were failing, but I replaced them all. And finally front wheel bearings and ball joints and brake rotors/pads. I didn’t have to replace most of this stuff but I like the truck so much I can’t help myself.

is is crew cab or supercab? crewcabs are a little more expensive. but $33k out the door after all fees isnt bad. i have 180k miles on my gen 2014 and its showing no signs of mechanical issues that i have not caused

That seems really high to me. Mileage isn’t bad but would think 27k to be good/reasonable. Maybe I am wrong, but when you could possibly get a new gen2 for 10k off msrp... If you are deadset in gen 1 I would still try to talk them down or look for another. We have some members I feel like have gen 1 with 120k miles selling for 23K with king shocks and other nice enhancements. I would probably go for that before the 33k. Especially in times like this. Motor is pretty strong and reliable though.

I noticed you have a CTR in your profile pic. I’m on the fence about buying a first gen raptor. But if you had to choose to daily the raptor or the CTR,which would you choose and you had to sell the other. I have a CTR.
