What Do I Do?

Ok what do I do? I have a friend that is selling a 2003 F-350 7.3 lariat cure cab DRW 4x4 with 17k that I can get cheep it looks like a new truck. I have been thinking about getting it but I have to sell my 2002 7.3 EX. Limited 4x4 that has 70k. I wish I could keep both but I don’t have room for two trucks that don’t fit in the garage and I kind of miss having a pu but love my Ex.

Tough call! I love dually's!

What the "mission" that you'll need the dually to perform? Or are you just considering because it's a good deal?

depends, is the extra $ worth having that many miles shaved off your turck? That will be a pretty big drop in mileage, and you do kinda want a pickup. Sounds like maybe you should make the swap?

I would like to have a dually to, They are pretty bada**. If i where in your shoe's, i would keep the Excursion for a couple of reasons. 1. Theres not getting over the fact that you can tell people that you can fit 15 people in your truck comfortablly and tow a 11,000 pound trailer. 2. They are discountinued and if yours is in good condition then thats a plus all together.

15 people!? What's little people?? Munchins?? I can see fitting 11 comfortably (or reasonably) but you'd need a 4th row seat (www.littleseats.com) & the middle passenger seat for the front seat. (like mine. )
