NICE!
I'm sure you will love it.
I got mine just over 2 months ago and it's great.
I like that Chrome Grill. I may have to replace my monochromatic with a little SHINE!

Good luck with your new Ex! I too have an '05...mine's an XLT.

I put the new chrome grille from a '06 SD on mine...as well as the chromer mirror covers. I also put a set of body colored door handles on...geez, the listed never ends. You can see pics in my gallery.

Again...good luck! You got the last year of what I call Fords Gentle Giant.

Nice SUV, How much did you pay after trading in? How many miles did you F250 have?

Smile 05 Excursion

Good Luck with your new ride!! I liked my 02 Ex V10 4X4 SO MUCH I replaced it with a 05 Ex Eddie Bauer V10 4X4 before they discontinued them. These vehicles are GREAT. My only complaint about the 05 was it shook and vibrated on the highway over 65 mph. After replacing the BF Goodrich tires (two times).Ford replaced tires with a different brand which corrected the problem and it rides like my 02 now.

Congrats and I wanted to say hi to the Ex forum members. I have been lurking here for a while since I started shopping for an Ex. Well I just brought her home today. 05 black Diesel Limited.

I will be posting pics soon. I had to sell my F350 but with a new baby and need for more interior room the EX was the choice.
