Why the Used Ford F-150 Is Our #9 Selling Vehicle Near Binghamton & Scranton
Hello again, neighbor! If you take a drive down any country road, suburban cul-de-sac, or bustling contractor supply yard between Broome County in New York and Lackawanna County in Pennsylvania, one sight is guaranteed: you will see a Ford F-150 hard at work. As America’s bestselling truck for over four continuous decades, the F-150 is more than just a pickup. It is a cultural institution built on a generational reputation for getting the job done, no matter how tough the task.
That legendary pedigree is why the pre-owned Ford F-150 holds a prominent place at #9 on our official top 10 bestselling used vehicles list. Its enduring popularity stems from continuous engineering innovation, massive towing capabilities, and a military-grade aluminum body that laughs off the rust and corrosion that plague traditional steel trucks in our salt-belt region.

Most In-Demand Used Ford F-150 Model Years
Because the F-150 has led the pickup market for so long, the pre-owned market provides incredible variety. Across our dealership lots, two generational configurations are in constant demand:
2018 to 2020 (13th Generation)
These model years represent the refined peak of the 13th generation. Ford made the smooth 10-speed SelectShift automatic transmission standard across nearly all engine configurations, pairing it with the efficient 2.7-liter EcoBoost, muscular 3.5-liter EcoBoost, or traditional 5.0-liter V8. With standard Pre-Collision Assist and the intuitive SYNC 3 infotainment platform, these trucks deliver exceptional mechanical durability and modern tech at highly accessible price points.
2021 to 2023 (14th Generation)
The ground-up redesign for 2021 turned the F-150 into the ultimate mobile office. It introduced available features like an interior work surface that folds flat over the console, max-recline front seats, available 12-inch center touchscreens running SYNC 4, and the groundbreaking Pro Power Onboard system that turns your truck into an on-demand generator for power tools or campsite appliances.
Engineered for Enduring Strength, Capability, and Comfort
Corrosion-Resistant Aluminum Alloy
Ford’s high-strength, military-grade aluminum-alloy cab and bed eliminate red rust concerns caused by heavy road salt on Route 17 and Interstate 81 winter commutes, preserving your truck’s body integrity and resale value for years longer than steel rivals.
Twin-Turbo EcoBoost Performance
Ford revolutionized the truck segment with twin-turbocharged EcoBoost engines. Delivering instantaneous low-RPM torque for towing heavy equipment trailers up steep hills around Scranton, they offer the pulling power of a big V8 with the highway fuel efficiency of a six-cylinder.
Pro Trailer Backup Assist
Backing up a boat trailer into the lake or maneuvering an enclosed work trailer into a narrow driveway is stress-free. Simply rotate the dashboard knob in the direction you want the trailer to go while the truck automatically steers itself into place.
Cavernous SuperCrew Cabin
The F-150 SuperCrew cab offers class-leading rear legroom with a completely flat rear load floor. Flip up the rear seats to stow expensive tools, hunting gear, or groceries securely inside out of the rain and snow.
