CD 2000: Ford Excursion Road Test

I'm certain most of you guys have seen this before but I thought some that have not might enjoy the video. Love it when he said "as the numbers spin up to 60 bucks"

Now $60 would only give me 1/4 of a tank. Thats why my daily driver now is a '93 Geo Metro 3 cylinder 5 speed 1.0 liter death trap but it gets 45 MPG . Cost me $15 a week in gas -- to and from work. My 10 mpg Ex rests all week and only get used on weekends with the wife and kids.

I saw that video a few months back and laughed real hard when he said $60 bucks to fill it! I remember back in 2000 with my first X thought it cost alot of money to fill it up, man I would do just about anything to get back to $1.50 a gallon fuel.
