Regular cab short bed V8 trucks. Super expensive!?
Discussion
I have a cheap 97 F150 V8 auto reg cab with short styleside bed to smoke around in.
For early 2026 I fancy a newer version (2014) and could barely find anything from GM, Ford or Toyota with less than 80k miles on USA auto trader, car gurus, etc. the ones I found were $25k. By the time it is shipped, Vat and import paid it will be nearly £30k.
Do the USA sellers expect a good beating or is the country not in as much of a financial mess as we are led to believe and people over there are dropping $25k on a ten year old truck!?

Dunno.
But I thought Toms poverty spec, 2 door, white, steel wheel V8 F150 was just fantastic in stock form. What a truck for the money.

I started to look for something like that too to import, seemed £20k was possible for something 5 years old, XL or XLT would be the one.
