NEW EXCURSION FOR ME... WOOTWOOT
Hello All. After 3 or so months of looking for a Excursion in good shape with decent miles, I found one. its a 2002 Limited with just under 55000 
miles. These things go quick around my parts so when I found this one I had to jump on it. In the last 4 weeks I have called on 3 of them that have sold in under 24 hours of listing(so did the one i just bought). Dealer I got it from will be putting new brakes on it this week. The rotors are warped. Also they will fix the side vent windows. I hear and see the motor for them working but window wont move out. At first I thought they might be stuck to seal but after a quick look that might not be the case. Any who.. its in great shape with low miles just what I was looking for. Found the door key pad number already due to the great info on this site. Just wanted to chime in and say hello. I will try and post pics as well.

Thanks all! Sounds like you already looked for the code under the dash? I went with the "remove the garbage bag hook panel" method and found it back there.
V-10---4x4 ... and I get 20 MPG......J/K lol
Just found my oil dip stick to either be loose or cracked at the clamp that holds it down. Probably cracked. After reading a couple post doesnt seem to fun to replace this
. Might save it for my mechanic. Also last manifold stud is snapped as well. I dont hear any exhaust leak, Yet. Also another job that just doesnt seem oh so fun to tackle. But after a few hours under the truck and under the hood this is all I can find that needs attention.

Wow, that is a sharp looking EX!! What a nice find. Unbelievably low miles. I thought my Ex had low miles when I bought it (66,109) but THAT is ridiculous! Can someone tell me how you would own a beautiful Ex like this and NOT DRIVE IT????
Congratulations on your find, you did well. I have owned mine for about 18months, but I remember driving 100 miles sight unseen to buy it. The dealer didnt' have time to put photo's on Autotrader before I snatched it up.
Oh, and you get extra credit for posting PHOTOS on your first post!!!! Nice Job.
Sincerely,
Karl.
