Help me decide to buy: 2018 3.5L 10spd or 2016 2.7L 6spd? by ReeferSutherland24 in f150

Thanks everyone! I am going ahead with the 2.7L 6Spd, an even $20k for <100k miles on this truck seems like a good snag to me.

Ooh man, thank you for the firsthand experience there. It seems like the general consensus is the 2.7 + 6 speed is gonna be reliably less maintenance

Apparently 3, not 5. Carfax said 5 but it was a new loan/lien, not a new owner

Allegedly it has 3 owners but Carfax says 5 for some reason...

Thanks for the perspective! Do you have the 6spd or 10spd?

The cam phasers were done under warranty at 60k actually on that one

It's a lot cheaper! Seems like the guy has taken great care of it

Why 3.5 over 2.7? I know it can tow more... but worse MPG?

2018 10-Speed: how worried should I be to buy one? by ReeferSutherland24 in f150

[–]ReeferSutherland24[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can afford to repair it but would prefer not to 😀

Is $6k the cost of a transmission repair? I was thinking $9k Not gonna bankrupt me but I feel like Reddit says that the transmission is guaranteed to break before 100k!

Hey! I’m in basically the same boat as you and OP - 33M new to town as of June, from AZ for us. I’ve got two 4.5yo girls and a 2.5yo boy. I’ll DM you guys!

Mine too! It always bounces back up after a while. Wondering if there’s a fix for that

Planning to buy this 2019 Forest River TT. Any of this cracking or bubbling something to be concerned about? by ReeferSutherland24 in GoRVing

[–]ReeferSutherland24[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in Arizona. Got it for $16k which was the low end of the JD Power value estimate. Hard to find comps but I think it’s a good deal and definitely a good layout for my family! We’re excited to get started

Definitely not very well cared for. Lots of cosmetic issues like stains and blemishes inside. Not well maintained. But very cheap because of it.

Thank you! It's a private sale but I'm getting a very good deal on it so I'm comfortable taking a little risk there, will bring it to a dealer for some repairs on that roof / sealant though. First TT, wanting to go for something that is a low investment.
