Recalls and complaints
A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. There are 7 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.
What the specs mean
The powertrain here is the 4.2L 6-cylinder with rear-wheel drive and a 4-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
A combined rating of 14.7 L/100 km works out to about 44 litres per 300 km. Expect about $22.79 per 100 km at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$4,200 a year for 15,000 miles.
Who it is for
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.
Living with the F-150
As a pickup truck, it has an open bed for things that would never fit in a trunk.
Rent it for a week first
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Drive the F-150 on your commute before you commit to it. Rent the F-150 for a week and see how it fits your life.
Which one to look for
A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
The cost of driving it
A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.
