Across trims and conditions, a 2018 Ford F-150 is typically worth roughly $20,000 to $45,000 on the used market in 2025, with higher trims and lower mileage pushing toward the top end. The exact figure depends on trim, drivetrain, miles, condition, options, and regional demand.
Value by trim

Below are typical price ranges you’ll see for common 2018 F-150 configurations. These figures reflect current market trends and can vary by region, vehicle history, and specific equipment packages.

How mileage and condition affect value
Impact of mileage and overall condition
Mileage and vehicle health are major levers in pricing. As a rough guide, the same trim can fetch notably more with lower miles and a clean history, while higher mileage or poor maintenance drags price down. The following bands are commonly observed in the market.
- Under 40,000 miles: typically at the higher end of the trim’s range
- 40,000–60,000 miles: mid-range price for the trim
- 60,000–100,000 miles: lower end of the range, more common for 2018 models
- 100,000 miles and above: significant discount relative to low-mile examples
Beyond mileage, factors such as accident history, service records, title status, modifications, tires and brakes, and the overall condition of the interior and exterior can swing value by thousands of dollars. Buyers should verify through a detailed vehicle history report and a mechanical inspection where possible.
Where to check current values
To nail down a precise value for a specific 2018 F-150, compare several trusted sources that update regularly with market data and regional variations.
- Kelley Blue Book (KBB)
- Edmunds True Market Value
- NADA Guides
Always cross-check these sources with a local dealer appraisal or private-sale listings in your area to account for regional pricing differences and the exact configuration of your truck.
Practical steps for sellers and buyers
Whether you’re selling or negotiating a purchase, these steps help you use the valuation data effectively.
- Document maintenance and service history to justify higher pricing within your trim band.
- Highlight drivetrain choices (e.g., EcoBoost engines, 4x4) and factory options that add value.
- Request independent inspections to verify the vehicle’s condition and avoid overpayment.
Being transparent about condition and providing clear maintenance records builds trust and can help you reach a fair price faster.
Summary
In summary, a 2018 Ford F-150’s value in 2025 ranges broadly from around $20,000 for base XL models with higher mileage to $45,000 or more for top trims with low mileage and premium features. The strongest price drivers are trim level, drivetrain, mileage, and overall condition, with location and market demand also shaping the final number. For the most accurate assessment, consult KBB, Edmunds, and NADA, and compare local listings to calibrate your expectations.

Which F-150 years are worth avoiding?
2004-2008
We recommend avoiding 2004-2008 F150 models due to spark plug ejection issues with the 5.4L V8 engine. The 2015-2016 models, while not bad, had some early aluminum body production quirks that Ford resolved in later years. Always research specific model years and have any used truck inspected before purchase.
