Hello all i just bought a 2002 Ford Excursion Limited with 7.3 Powerstroke! 83,000 original miles (almost 86k now since I drove it home from Salt Lake City) and its in mint condition! What a find! Hydra tuner, 6" BDS suspension lift and Fox shocks all the way around. Sitting on Toyo 37x13.5x20 tires! She is a beast!

Welcome.

I thought the 7.3 had an analog odometer and the 6.0 had the digital.

2002 brought a number of changes to the truck including the digital dash and audio controls in the steering wheel.

Jeremy is correct when it was first listed it was around 30k i contacted the owner and he went through wveeything he had done to the truck and kept amazing records. I could not afford at that price though! 😩 I kept in contact with him via text for the next few weeks as he had numerous prospective buyers that all ended upnflaking out for numerous reasons. He dropped the price to 25k and had a guy from TX offer to buy it just moments before i contacted him! Being an honest person he held true to hold it for him even when i offered $500 more with a nice down payment up front to hold until i could fly out and take possesion.. I was really bummed!! A couple days later he text me and said the guy had told him he had cash for the purchase but ended up the day he was to take posession he emailed him that hos financing fell thru!! Happy day for me bad for him! ( original owner had already started the purchase of new truck) he was in a bind so i took advantage lol i told him i could fly out the next friday (a week away) but i had soent some of my purchase money... I got it for $23,000 knocked 2 k off for short notice plane tickets $700 one way Nashville to Salt Lake City and fuel cost driving home ( not sure what that cost me i was to excited driving the 2000 miles in my new ride to care lol!

I am very excited about it though! I have been looking for this truck for 10 years! So many times i would find one i liked just to find rebuilt titles or way to many miles for my liking! Thanks for all the comments on the truck i hope to have this girl for a long long time and be apart of this group to share my experiences and learn as much as possible from you guys about the truck and engine!!
