Traded in 2019 Lariat Sport with cam phaser and trans issues.

Noticed the cam phaser rattle about 8 months ago at about 90000 miles. Then came the hard shift to 3rd and 9th occasionally. Read up on repair costs and decided to just trade it in and let them deal with it. Overall the truck was in good shape. Aside from a nickel sized chip in the windshield and needing new tires. I figured the cost to repair everything was just dumb and I’d still be at 90k plus miles. I started shopping around about 3 months ago online at nearby dealerships.. Found a Black 2023 Powerboost Limited for 51K with 27K miles on it.
Changed the oil on my 2019 “lessened the rattle at start up” and put it in eco mode “ lowered the chance of hard shift when driving”…. Went to the dealership and traded the pos in. Ended up getting 35k for the trade that I owed 7k on. Put down 10k on top of my trade. 405. A month now vs 510. I was paying on the 19.

Was I wrong for sticking it to the dealership? Or just smart? lol It’s been 3months and I haven’t heard anything from the dealership..

Car still drives. Screen completely blacked out. Nothing lights up or makes noise when put key in. No idea what caused it and it’s been hard finding solutions. Any thoughts?

Advice on what truck I should get

Hey y’all. I’m looking in the Used truck market for an F150/F250 gasser. Mainly leaning towards F150’s, unless the price was right. I’m new to Fords coming from both Dodge and GMC, surprisingly the GMC left me sit more times than the Dodge did, and I recently got out of a 6.7 Cummins that was basically a money pit and I’m not looking to get back into diesel at this time. I’ve been all over the used market and I’m wondering on what type of engine I should be looking at. I’ve read all the horror stories about the 5.4 and the 3.5 Ecoboost motors, my budget being only around $15,000 limits me on what I can look for, so my question is this:

Would you avoid any 5.4 or 3.5 with over 120,000 miles even with good maintenance? That seems to be what’s available to me within my budget.

5.0’s are there but with roughly 170-200k miles. I’ve heard they’re tried and true but even with that kind of mileage I expect everything around the motor to nickel and dime me.

Thanks in advance.

Rear differential

So what does this mean. I changed the oil in the dif and it has tiny specks like glitter

Truck is 2004 for f150 lariat 4x4 automatic worth 5.4 lifted. With 155k

Is this just normal wear or something I should be concerned about

2019 F150 5.0 Lariat

Just lowered and leveled my f150.

Magnaflow exhaust - AFE intake - OZ Omega X tuned

Do I have to go with 22 inch wheels next, or could I just go with wider tires?

285/50r20? Currently 275/55r20

F150

So my local Ford dealer has a 24 f150 for sale with 16k miles asking about 43k. I'm in negotiations with them and they pulled the KBB value. The truck is worth 52,965 per kbb. This is a little more than I'd like to spend but it also seems like a unicorn deal that I have to take. Is there something about the 24 f150 I'm not aware of that would account for such a discount. I've looked over the truck and it's clean, no accidents per Carfax. Anything is good look out for? Thanks in advance. It's the 5.0l motor as well.

F150 Soundsystem

I recently bought this truck and wanted to upgrade the sound. Went to a shop and told them generally what I was looking for (cleaner and slightly louder sound) they set me up with this. As far as the kickers go they sounded different in the store. They're not as loud as I thought they'd be and they lack bass. Will adding another amp improve this? The sub has way more bass than I was looking for I like the knob best at a quarter turn. The issue is it gives me a headache, from the back of my neck up. Is there anything I could do with the settings to prevent this? Not too sure what to do here looking for recommendations.
