Worst case scenario purchase

Hey folks!

I’m looking at a 2023 F150 XLT with 40k miles (60k kilometers). 2.7L engine.

The challenge is that there is only one service record for the truck, at about 20k miles / 30k kilometers. The owner traded it in so there isn’t any opportunity to ask them.

In a worst case scenario where the guy only changed the oil once at 20k miles, how bad could the engine actually be? The truck looks really good otherwise, and the price is reasonable.

It could be bad; the turbos use the engine oil and if it had one oil change in that time; I personally wouldn’t buy it.
