    So I currently drive a 12 gt brembo with 35k miles on it.

    I want to trade it in for a truck. Always wanted a truck and now that I no longer live in an area with a backyard I take my dog to the park a lot. She's a lab that sheds more than anything else in existence.

    I like this f150 it's a 2010 5.4L platinum.

    The thing that worries me is that it has 95k miles on it. How many miles are people getting out if these trucks? Also
    How does the price look on this? It seems a little high to me

    You should be able to trade for a newer truck than a 2010. I'd look for a 2012+ with the 5.0

    I'm looking for one with: navigation system ac/heated seats and really like the platinum and king ranch editions. This is why I had to go back a little farther

    Post up a thread in the intro section stx.dead.I
    :cheers:

    So it's a trade off, higher miles to get
    the options package you want.

    Longevity is all about the maintenance IMO.

    I'm not much help though,
    I get buyer's remorse before the purchase.

    Navigation app for a smart phone and self installed
    seat heaters could be another consideration.

    Looks clean if it has been taken care of then go for it. These trucks will run for a long time

    Yea I really like that mustang. My dad has a 12 5.0 and damn it's fun to drive. Almost too fun, that's why I still have my jeep. It won't get out of its own way. And I like having a licence. Lol.
