2001 Excursion 7.3 4x4
Hi,
I've been lurking in the background enjoying reading through the various forums soaking up wisdom from all the helpful people here but I figured it was time to sign up.
this is my first Ford vehicle and first truck that I've owned....wife is one of those "bow tie" only glad...but I still love her 
I got lots of questions about things I'd like to do with my truck to improve/customize what I have but I'll wait and post those in the Excursion forum.

I'm working on it...slowly but surely...one of her coworkers saw the truck yesterday and made it very clear that if I ever sold the truck(not likely) he wanted it....all of the sudden she realized I had a much more valuable vehicle than she realized at first.

Oh she has....she has a Tahoe right now but she seems to enjoy the oomph of the torque with a diesel engine.

haha imagine if you do some mods to the 7.3. It will have some more oomph. That engine is choked down so badly in stock form. You can open her up and make it come alive. It aint no powerhouse compared to some of the other powerstrokes but it will get decent mpg's and power for what ya want. Imagine all the groceries she can fit in that excursion! haha
