Yeah...that irked me as well...on top of the rake the truck has. Maybe he boosted the rear a bit more to retain a factory style look???

Noticed that too but didn't figure it would be a problem.

If he lifted it evenly, it would sit like that.

If I didn't have my truck I'd be there offering 5k right now.

Cool Austin, Got any info on it ? Like what is it , a lunch wagon ?

I know nothing about it;a friend through yet another truck community found it while out and about.

Now this is cool!

Pretty neat find Austin. Its got a bigger "R" on the hood.

^^ nice looking. He's asking more for it then when it was new.

Didn't notice that Ken!

That yellow truck sure is nice... but I'm not sure about the asking price. "too nice to DD" ... obviously he hasn't looked inside the bed of his truck. Looks like it was used a good bit.

This is decent.....it needs a small lift and I'm not crazy about the wheels, but it looks good so far.

The hood looks a little off and it looks like he either drove the truck in a tar pit or put it on a lift and sprayed the $%&* out of it cause the undercarriage just looks wrong like that....am I the only one thinking this on this rig?

Interesting vehicle. I didn't know they had tar pits in Idaho.

The GVW is the highest you can get on an F-150, which is 6500. I don't know what gives the truck that rating, though.

Also the VIN plate shows a transmission of "K", and I don't see that designation in the VIN codes. Normally, the C-6 transmission(auto) is designated as "G".

The color code is correct.

He says it has cruise control, but I don't see the servo in the engine bay. It also has an aftermarket steering wheel, which would eliminate the controls for the cruise. If it does have cruise, it is aftermarket. The interior pictures are pretty dark, so it is hard to see.

Looks like there's no cargo light, the door panels aren't original. Looks pretty clean, though.

holy crap...... DROOOOOL......

Not work 6k in my book. El cheapo paint job... 'needs work'. I'm at half, if even.

I was just going to say, kinda spendy for a 2WD.

Agreed. My truck sold for 2500 in the condition it was in, 'low' miles 3 owners.

KEN!

I heart that truck, but A/C isn't listed. Also a little spendy.

Doesn't mean it doesn't have it... I'd kinda be surprised if it didn't. (It's hawt in Gawga!) If the engine presents itself like the rest of the truck, I'd consider the price fair.

Agreed. It just doesn't list it. That is one of Ken's requirements, if I may speak for him in absentia!
