Needle in a haystack... would you keep searching?

[neals55]

I have been searching far and wide (literally nationwide) for a used 2021-2023 F150 that has all the options that I want. I am honestly surprised at how challenging it has been to find what I am looking for. Knowing that this site is full of experienced daily F150 driving, I figured I would list out the features I am set on and have you weigh in on how important each of these features are to you in your everyday use.

The items that are the hardest to come by are the 6.5' bed, and the 360 camera option. But I think those are a must IMHO, especially paired together. Thoughts??


Non-Negotiables:
1. 2021-2023, XLT ( I dont want a moonroof)
2. Less than 60k miles
3. 5.0 V8
4. SuperCrew Cab
5. White exterior
6. Sports appearance package (paint matched bumpers)
7. 6.5' bed (this one is proving the be the most challenging)
8. 40/console/40 with console shifter
9. Large infotainment screen
10. 360 camera option
11. tow package

Would be nice:
12. work surface console
13. Rhino lined bed
14. tailgate with step
15. tow mirrors
16. 36 gallon extended fuel tank

Searching daily, I spent about nine months looking before I found my current truck. The 6.5' is a challenge but they exist. Autotrader and CarFax were the two sites I used the most.

My last two trucks were from dealers in Montana. They seem to have a higher concentration of 6.5' beds compared to WA and OR.

Cars.com is pretty good too. Doesn't let you pick bed length, but you can usually see that in the thumbnail pictures provided without having to click on the picture and waste time.
