I would love to see the carfax report on that truck.
On the 8th day god created the Super Swamper TSL and said "go forth and kick ass"
my buddies 6.0 has 25k miles and so far hasn't taken a crap. It gets good milage, is comfortable and pulls nicely. We've pulled my grandfathers backhoe from south tx to colorado with it and have pulled a few heavy loads. They're not all bad.
do you know what year?
Yes either the problems have the be discovered by 12/mo 12,000 miles for the first 3 repair attempts, or the 24/mo 24,000 miles mark. 3 repair attempts for both of those time frames, or one repair attempt for a major safetey concern. The problem wasnt found before those terms had already expired. In 15-16 months I put 40k miles on the truck.
I dont think lemon laws apply to privately sold vehicles though.

I prefer Afrochick's idea of lighting it on fire better. Of course whether or not you are in the truck is up to you, I think you know my vote though
Lemon law does not apply to privately sold vehicles, you're right robert. But I got mine from a dealer. I need to talk with a lawyer to see what my options on are this lemon law thing. A little oil leak isnt going to hurt anything, but it'd be nice to get a new truck, knowing its past history. And on my driving record it doesnt record that accident at all, (just had to get a copy for a speeding ticket the other day). It was a criminal tresspassing fine instead.
knowing it's past history!? that you put it through
Quick question: would you describe your feces as having an odor or aroma?
his is an 04. while i know that they were supposedly "fixed" in 04...thats your fault....shoulda waited for the 04
Jerry, eat me. Johnny, I thought y'all were talking about the lemon laws in reference to selling it, so if you do manage to pawn it off on someone, they cant do anything about it. Also, while the accident may not be on your driving record, carfax uses insurance records, so good luck with that

Ford called me today and told me that want to make 2 months car payments on the thing for the times its been in the shop. That's $1348.86 in cash they are shelling out to my lending company. I think they are aware of the problems with these 6.0's, or do they just like giving away money?
Take money, sell truck to carmax, cut losses.
Oh and I'd tell them to make the check out to me not the lending company....especially if they are "reimbursing for time the truck was down"
Thinking about it. Or taking the money, and then going lemon law on it after I get the money.
Just looked up the current values for the truck in the condition its in...
Trade in to carmax: $25,000
Private Party Value: $28,000
Retail value: $33,500
I'd lose about 5k if I sold it, I'm gonna look for other options. But for now I'm gonna take that money from Ford.

you dont think taking the money would qulaify as a settlement, I bet they make you sign something that says the issue is "resolved" when you cash the check.
