Look at this closed bidding for this government vehicle:
https://www.gcsurplus.ca/mn-eng.cfm...htype=&lci=&str=1<nf=1&frmsr=1&sf=ferm-clos
2010 Ford F-250 SD XL
Body Style:
CREW CAB PICKUP 4-D
Engine Type:
6.4L V8 OHV 32V TURBO DIESEL
Transmission:
5-Speed Automatic
Drive Line:
4WD
51080 KM
Here's the kicker. This thing has ONLY 51k km (32k miles) and has the following known problems:
Known issues:
Requires the following:
Minimum bid: $5000
At such a low mileage, it needs this much repairs? And to have a misfire on a diesel, must be a valve or compression issue. This is awful. I don't know what department it was in but government vehicles are usually well maintained. I know they have a 10 year limit for vehicle age but it's not economically feasible to repair regardless.
I've seen similar Chevys with more mileage have a minimum bid of $15 000, like this 2008 GMC Sierra 3500HD SLE with no serious issues with 74k KM starting at $18K.
Wow.
