Unhappy Saying Goodbye to Ex

After 11 years and almost 300,000 miles i decided it is time to let go. He has been a great ride and part of family but he is tired and ready to be parted out. heart is heavy but so goes life. a Harley has taken his place so life is okay. No more horse hauling no more gas guzzling road trips and thank God no more frikken repair bills. Ill miss Beastly. I hope every one here gets as much fun out of theirs as i have mine. been a great journey but a new one begins.

I know where there is a replacment? I just traded my 05 Eddie Bauer Ex w/6.0, 2 weeks ago, I am sure you can get a good price. only has a 113780 miles on it. Gateway Ford Greeneville TN ask for Bronson or Johnathon.

Sorry to hear of the EX's demise. After 11 years I am sure "She" will be missed. Maybe you can find another with less wear at a good price. Best of luck. Stay with us on the forum to relate your memories of the Excursion. Rep's are being sent you way.
