Hey fellas and ladies...I'm looking at checking this 2010 out on Saturday so any help before then would be greatly appreciated and thanks in advance!!

I'm providing the link below please let me know if anything jumps out at you.
Of course I'm going to ask the normal questions when getting any truck, but like any vehicle each and every truck has their quirks for that year so I'm wondering what things I should pay close attention to and look for.

Please let me know so I can be as thorough as possible on this because as you can see his pretty high mileage.


2010 Ford Raptor

Thanks!!

sooo cheap

130K HOLY CHRIST!!

Id definitely take a look at it, but just remember its not a new truck, so most likely its someone else headache!

You could buy that truck, get to 200k, then drop a 6.2 in it.

Sounds like he's willing to negotiate, so I would Try to talk him down. Definately get a car fax report beforehand, and take it to a mechanic if your not familiar with Raptors. Good luck.

check for frame damage. first i would see if the tow hooks have been scraped or rusted, the crossmember that holds the transmission is bent or straight, and then negotiate. 130,000 miles are a lot. and he stated its been bot on and off road so check it good

It looks really clean, so the owner took great care of it. As said before look at the frame, lots of miles so you have to think, about future output into the truck, new motor, bumpstop kit, new transmission, list goes on an on, or it will lst forever and you won't need anything. You can get a new Raptor Supercab with no options for 41K +/-, and five months in hell waiting for it. Also if you do want it take it to a Ford Dealer Qualified on Raptor, you will pay, he or she can give you you all the good or bad news up front. Cheers

I had 158,000 on my last truck when I gave it to a friend, and it looked like it had gone through the Zombie Wars, I did a lot of off roading half my miles easy, this person took great care of this truck and did not go off I don't see any of the sandblasting I had.

Things to ask. Has the rear end ever been replaced?
Had the third brake light ever leaked?
How is the four wheel drive?
Fluid changed?

Take it to a ford dealer and have them check it. Will cost not sure how much but at least you'll know if there's any major issues before you fork over the money and carfax.

Check the front shocks to see what perch it is on.
