196,585 miles · $14,207 with $252 doc fee · 3.5L EcoBoost 4×4
Moose’s Verdict
Fair price. Wrong truck.
$13,955 sits squarely in the fair range for these miles ($13k–$15.5k) — the price isn’t the problem. The truck is: 196,585 miles on a 2015 3.5L EcoBoost from a documented “years to avoid” model year, with 14 NHTSA recalls and completion status unknown on this VIN. At these miles you’re in turbo-replacement territory ($1,500–$3,500 per turbo, and there are two) and transmission-rebuild territory ($3,000–$5,500). The roughly $7,000 you save versus a lower-mile Platinum isn’t savings — it’s a repair fund with a truck attached.
Price vs Market
$13,955 is fair for 196k miles — mid-range against $8.8k–$20k comps.
★★★★★
History (VIN)
AutoCheck free score: 80 — below the 83–91 range for similar 2015 F-150s, with 72 historical records on file. 14 recalls apply and completion on this VIN is unknown.
★★★★★
Maintenance & Reliability
“Avoid” model year + EcoBoost weak points + 196k miles = turbo and transmission risk zone.
★★★★★

17/23 MPG — average for a full-size 4×4 of the era.
★★★★★
Dealership
4.8 stars on 34 Google reviews (Larwill 4.7/26, Goshen 5.0/8), but a public Jan 2025 complaint alleges a kept deposit at the Goshen store.
★★★★★
Vehicle History
Scores below the similar-vehicle range mean this truck’s history is rougher than most 2015 F-150s on the road — more records, more events. The free score won’t say which events, but the gap itself is the signal.

One public red flag on record: a January 2025 complaint alleges the Goshen location kept a buyer’s deposit after financing fell through. Worth asking about their deposit policy in writing before you put money down.
The Original Listing
Snapshot of the dealer’s listing page, captured at verdict time — so the price and details can’t quietly change afterward.
The fine print: this verdict is our opinion based on publicly available information at the time of analysis — price data, history sources, and dealer reviews. It is not financial advice. Always get an independent pre-purchase inspection and verify the history yourself before you buy.
