Buying the 2011 Ford F-550
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2011 Ford F-550; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. For anyone shopping for the 2011 Ford F-550, here are the facts that matter.
Recalls and complaints
Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. NHTSA lists 20 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.
Specs, explained
No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.
Space, size and seats
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk.
A good match for
It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.
Try before you buy
Try the F-550 on your commute, then decide. A test week in the F-550 tells you more than any review. Rent first, buy later: a week with the F-550 answers the big questions.
What it costs to run
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. 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.
Picking a year and a trim
Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
Ask us
Tell us the car you are considering, and we will help where we can.
Rent it for a week before you buy

Find me this car

Can I rent a 2011 Ford F-550 before I buy one?
Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.
Does the 2011 Ford F-550 have recalls?
NHTSA lists 20 recall campaigns for it, in the table on this page. Ask for proof each was fixed.

Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
