Have you priced a 05 Black Diesel Excursion? Normally would be in the upper teens.

Very little rust in the wheel wells, but the most important part we know very little about The Engine

Not to be an ***, but seriously bro? Are you really going to go through this again after all the bs you dealt with getting the Ex you have now, plus the house fire thing going on currently?

I'm not sure what work you are referring to but I think they paid about 1000 too much on the injectors and not sure on hubs. It's not like it's studded and deleted. I think even without being studded it's still cheaper than a V10 but it sounds like it has some rust that may keep some from looking at it.

That's what I wanted to know. Just the fact that it is well below normal ranges. I understand its easily 5000 grand below what I was looking at. Thanks

Wanted a diesel, settled for a gasser. House fire caused a lot of fights with Wendy and I and I am able to get a loan for it so I'm doing it. A few of the people on here talk to me on the phone/text and know a little more about the situation and can back me up on it. Just got off the phone with the guy for the second time (super nice guy BTW) and I think everything is set up. Already got the approval from the bank so now I just have to fly out there and get it!

I feel like there should be a "Looking for this Ex" thread. Many of us could subscribe to Craigslist/autotrader/cars.com etc. alerts in our area for Excursions and then if we see one pop up that we know a member is looking to buy we can share it. Especially if a member is willing to fly in to get it. As an added bonus someone would be local to it to go take a look. Might be more efficient than this thread as far as shopping for a particular one goes. Just a thought.

Id run it up to billings, or better yet have him meet you at the airport in billings. Take it over to G and J diesel (they used to have a good rep, last time i used them 20yo ago they did) and check it all out before you hand over a check. If it leaves you with a bad vibe, hop back on the airplane and no loss but your time and plane ticket. If its a pos you have a long drive ahead of you...

There was for Apocalypse, was about 50 pages in total, nation wide search and he ended up with a very nice Excursion. V10, 4.30 gears, limited came close to buying one from Boris too.
