Re: [A/S] Powerstroke
Don't know anything about any possible problems, but since you are near
100K, think about this: I traded this past summer with about 100,500 miles
on my old truck. Being over 100K put my trade in a completely different
category. I didn't know until then that vehicles with over 100k cannot be
financed by the regular institutions like banks and credit unions (at least
here in SC). For this reason, the dealer would have to wholesale my trade
rather than sell it himself because the market of individuals with cash to
buy it was poor. I suspect my truck wound up somewhere in Mexico. I learned
all this after the deal was completed.
Ultimately, those last 500 miles made it worth less to the dealer on trade.
What ticks me off is that I ignorantly drove it maybe 1000 miles shopping
around several dealers within 150 miles or so. Probably cost me at least $1
per mile.
