New Excursion this weekend

Whats up FTE?
I have been lurking for a while now, I have been looking for a Excursion and I finally picked one up this weekend.
I read a lot of the threads here as references so I wanted to share some photos with the forum. Let me know what you think. I was looking for a 7.3 diesel but they are very expensive where I live right now.
I purchased a 2003 Excursion Limited V10 100K, and drove 400 miles to get it.
Clean 1 owner Carfax and the truck is one of the cleanest I have ever seen.
Please take a look and let me know how I did. I don't know if it is appropriate to post what I paid for it, but if it is cool I have no problems. Looking for feedback.
Truck drives great front ends tight, shifts smooth and no transmission noise.

Looks good - pick up so heavy duty floormats to keep that carpet looking nice

Definitely a great find. By the way, you need to send me your drivers side seat asap.

I was thinking the same thing. Man what I wouldn't do to swap out my front seats for these ones. NICE.

Seems the owner had seat covers on the seats. I found the hooks under the seat that attach one side to another.

Found her up in Tyngsboro, MA
The underside looks good, a little rust here & there in the normal places.
The original owner had the dealer spray undercoating when the truck was new, I think you can see it in one of the photos.

Congrats, and welcome! I know what you mean, I drove 250 miles one way to find mine, and drove it home. That's my favorite color too.
