I don't know what your BMW is but that is a ton of miles on a v-10. That truck is not worth very much at all. It will also suck down more gass than you can shake a stick at.
What year and model is your BMW? Personally, as person who owns a Beemer and despises Ford, I'd say no. But if it's a good looking and running truck it might be worth it, depending on if you want a truck...Quote:

I would say way too many miles on that Ford for a decent trade...

Some views on it here.
I have a couple of customers with a V10 fords they complain it has zip for power when towing.

Take it from a former Ford tech
Stay away from the V10!!!!!!
That many miles they have issues
If the plugs havent been changed for a while be prepared for a head job!!!
there known to strip out-helicoiling works for a bit but they allways loosen up
Get a 7.3 deisel instead-best motor Ford came out with in a truck!
Yeah, I'd wait it out and get something with a lot less miles on it. I sold my 2000 Durango about a year ago with 135K on it, and that was about decent as far as mileage for the age- if you factor in 10K/year for the average person.Quote:
