Went to Baxter to purchase a used pickup, they recommended a 2002 Ford Diesel, saying it was very dependable and suitable for long distance reliable travel. Truck did have good tires, but was slow turning over. Baxter installed new batteries and mentioned that they had already installed a new injector in #7 cylinder. Truck went just past Sioux Falls, had to be taken to Sioux Falls for overheating problems. Dealer there fixed a fan and replaced the starter - noting that the new battery cables were loose. Truck made it as far as Missoula, MT where it again overheated. Dealer there found numerous problems, worst being that the head was cracked around the #7 cylinder. Water was found in crankcase.
Truck was traded in at a 55% loss after 3 days. Missoula mechanic told us that it appeared that Baxter was (1) Incompetent for failing to check why the injector had to be replaced, and the starter (not the batteries) was bad, or (2) Baxter knew that the head was cracked and decided to dump it on the first unsuspecting buyer who was foolish enough to trust them.
Several calls to Baxter managers went unanswered. I am going to be buying a new heavy-duty pickup in the near future and was considering Ford but I will never deal with a crooked or incompetent dealer again which is what I consider this case to be. Ford was also informed of the problem but never tried to address it. I have already told several associates about the problems with Baxter and so far at least one, a previous Ford owner, has purchased a new GMC due to the treatment we received, not only from Baxter but fdue to the lack of concern by Ford.
