The maintenance cost on these vehicles is astronomical though. Oil changes, transmission fluid, brake service – it all adds up quickly. Buyers need to understand the total cost of ownership, not just the sticker price.
That’s a solid generation F-250. The 7.3 Power Stroke is one of the best diesel engines Ford ever made. These trucks run forever if you keep up with oil changes. I’d jump on it if the service history is clean.
The 1.0 engine is underpowered for motorway driving if you’re regularly on A-roads. Go for the 1.2 if you can find one. Much better for everyday use without feeling like you’re driving a golf cart.
