I'm sure you guys have noticed for a bit now me buzzing around the forum lusting for one of these monsters.... Well yesterday I finally pulled the trigger on it! I have to wait till Monday to pick it up, but it's mine none-the-less.

I have gone to see many excursions, and many have let me down for various reasons. When we got to this one, it almost felt like Ford had built it just for me, then someone else used it for 90k miles, then came back to me I dont have any pics that I took of it yet, but I'll share the autotrader link.


2003 Ford Excursion $14,999 - Lawrenceville Ford Lincoln Mercury - Lawrenceville, NJ 08648-2415 Dealer

Feel free to ask any questions!

Thanks alot guys for all your help and having a great forum! Now my Ford collection is complete (Own an Explorer, Expedition, and now the EX)

 

Well, it's only $15,000. And you only live once.

But if you paid their full asking price, I would have sold you my Limited with half the mileage for the same price.

 

Got it for 11,900



You sell your truck? I thought it would have to be pried out from your cold dead fingers

 

Ahh, OK! Sounds like a decent price.

 

Gotta tell ya, truck was in damn near mint condition. Of all the Ex's I went to see, this was the best, and my god, have I gone to see Ex's...... *tear*

 

Wow !!!! Did mine depreciate THAT much ?!? lol

And I was happy that this month is my last payment !

(But I have had great use for 5 years so far )

 

Now It's time to figure out what to do to customize the truck to make it MY Ex.... I have no idea where to start though! Any friendly pointers

 

Congrats!! What a happy ending. Just keep buzzing around for the mods.

 

Congrats! Nice truck! First thing you should do is get it all tuned up with all fresh fluids (oil, tranny, differential, brake,PS, coolant, etc.). New tires/shocks, brake pads/rotors and ball joints if needed. After that, an alignment. All these things would not change the appearance of your Ex, but they are necessities to keep it running good. Also change the plugs/boots. Check the serpentine belt and air filter. What else did I miss? Sorry to rain on your parade, but doing these things will pay you back with years of enjoyment and not to mention safety of the vehicle.

 

Nice. I think you did very well. Enjoy, it will soon become your favorite thing to drive.

 

That's the great thing about this deal/dealership I'm dealing with!

They have already changed out all the fluids, new tires, new tie rods, ball joints are reported to be 100%, air filter, etc.... Plugs weren't done yet, but I'll make sure to make time for it.

I real feel like I'm getting a kick *** deal!

 

Just got the call from the dealership today! My EX Is ready to get picked up! O man, I've never been so excited in my life to drive something!

Pics to come! lol not like you guys haven't seen an EX already, but this one is mine! Woo!

 

Congratulations!!

 

Congrats on the new rig, I know the feeling, when ya get it ya wonder why you did not get one earlier!

 

my exact feelings. why didn't i get one sooner!
