I bought my 2000 Excursion 7.3PSD used from a small dealer. It came with a Viper remote start. I've been quite happy with it, but have no idea where it was installed or what model it is. I don't have any paperwork on it. I just saw the key fob on the ring and started pushing buttons until I figured it out.

This one unlocks all doors with one push, runs for around 20 min. before shutting off and will cancel the start if you push it again. I also notice a neet little trick the other day.... if you're running into a store and don't want to shut down, you can press the buttons before you shut the truck down and it will keep runnig after you pull the key.

I have the ultra start and i like it very much.Theres are a ton of features like,cool down,it can start every 4,5,6 hours and its a pager system.If the alarm goes off it tells you.When you start the truck it tells you when its running and how much time it has left to run,before it turns off.There are so many features.
