The 2012 Ford F-350 for buyers
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2012 Ford F-350 for sale by us right now. For anyone shopping for the 2012 Ford F-350, here are the facts that matter.
A buyer's checks
NHTSA has 183 owner complaints on file, mostly about steering, suspension and engine. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.
Under the hood
Fuel use for this model year: Rating on request; heavier trucks and vans are often outside the EPA ratings.
Practical details
As a car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.
Rent it for a week first
A week with the F-350 answers more than any brochure. Rent the F-350 first, and buy only if it fits your life. Drive the F-350 on your commute before you commit to it.
What it costs to run
A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
Year and trim
Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
When you know your dates
