Ford f350

[Jcaldwell195]

We are buying a used f350 and have noticed that a seemingly vast majority of the vehicles for sale are 2017. Is there a problem with that particular year?

Some very early build 17's had minor issues that were likely covered under warranty. 2017+ are largely considered bulletproof trucks this far. 6.7L is a proven motor and the 6 speed transmission as well.

I was thinking leased, also.

End of lease. Makes sense! Thanks again.

I had a 2017 with the 6.7 Powerstroke... super truck and super engine. I wish I would have kept it but I didn’t need it because I sold my big trailer.
I wouldn’t hesitate for a minute in buy another 2017 with the Powerstroke!

My guess would be that Ford introduced a new interior, and different exterior look in the 2018 model which is still being carried forward into the 2021 year models. It seems to me this happens every 6 or 7 years.

Is the 2018 the first year of the aluminum body t00? Not sure about that.

Let's see: 3 years or 36000 miles, and then a new 10-speed, but you really have to pay for it.....

2017 - 2019 are virtually unchanged. The 2018 did get a slight power and torque increase to win bragging rights over Ram and GM.

The 2017 was the first year of the aluminum body super duty. “Alumiduty”

Tuner on my 15 boosted power & torque, do I get bragging rights?
