Guy dumped a lot of money into this thing to get rid of it at 13,000 miles. Price tag seems astronomical. Not my cup of tea, what are your thoughts?

When I first looked at it, and thought it had a total custom paint job, with a ghost punisher theme, I was into it...... but it's a wrap job. Booooo. Keep looking. At the right time of year, and the right rebates, you could buy a new on and lift it yourself and add your own touches to it for roughly the same money. And it would be new. Or you could be in a new raptor with the right rebates for 50k.

The guy definitely put a lot of money into it to get rid of it so fast. I personally think it's hideous though.

Yea there is alot of stuff on it, like the ABS- they listed that 3 times. Plus it has an adjustable steering wheel and a tilt steering wheel. BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE! I think I'd stay away from that dealer.......sounds like a shady snake pit! IMHO.

"Rock Stars", premium alloys. I'm sure little Me Ling would be proud. And it gets 12 city - 16 Hwy. What an imagination.

That would make it a Dealer add on, and NOT covered under the FOMOCO warranty.

What he said^. It's up to the dealer whether or not they choose to cover it, but they always have the option to say no, some dealers do some don't.

I bought my 2010 with a 6in BDS lift and 35's from my dealer. My biggest concern before I completed the purchase was the warranty, especially since I got the extended warranty. I was told they do not change any ford specs (with the suspension lift they use) that would affect my warranty. I was concerned about tie rods and ball joints going bad, the usual for lifted rigs. The truck is now almost 3 1/2 yrs old with 17,000 miles and the only warranty work have had done was when I was having a popping noise in the suspension, turned out it was the suspension shifting, the bolts just needed to be retightened. They covered it under warranty no issues. Get it in writing!
