Well....I did it! I bought a 2001 Excursion with the V10. I have already been talking to Joe about mods.

 

Congrats! I hope you enjoy it. I am still searching for mine!

 

congrats on the new ride...!!! hope you enjoy it half as much as i enjoy mine...have fun bro!!


PICS!!!

 

Congrats; I got a 01 V-10 too and love it. Lets see some pics

 

I found this on ebay from a small dealer out of Iowa called Thiel Motors. They are a family owned used car business and they were great to deal with! I drove about 150 miles to get there and it was worth the drive! They have some other Ex's too....here's their website.

Here are some photos that I downloaded before I bought the new (to me) Ex. It looks as good as the photos!

 

Nice truck! Thats in good cond. I have a 01 v-10 to lol. BTW, welcome to FTE

 

Hey Guys, That is a beauty I just bought what looks to be the exact same truck an 01 Limited with the V10 2WD Same color combo with 106k. If you don't mind me asking what did you have to pay? Michael

 

Okay...so here's the scoop on the price. The price was $13,997. I traded my '98 Tahoe for $4,000. I also bought a 3 year/36k mile warranty (peace of mind for DW). I also negotiated $250 off for tires since my Tahoe has new tires and I will be replacing the tires on the Ex in a year or two. Final, out the door price after everything....the trade...the warranty...taxes, title fees, etc....was $12,585.

 

That is a 4 wheel drive right? How many miles? How are your front seats? Does the truck need anything?

 

Does this answer your question about 4WD?


Seats are great!


As for needing anything....as far as I can tell....so far....for owning it for one day and driving it for over 150 miles it is in great shape. I am planning on doing some mods as Joe (X_Hemi_Guy) is suggesting. I am also thinking of swapping the back seat with captains chairs. I just can't see the need to carry eight people, more likely, I would be carrying a maximum of six people.

 

Very nice truck! I really wanted a 4 wheel drive 7.3 but this one came along and I could not say no. I paid $6500 for it and it is almost perfect except the front seats have some wear. I will post some pics tomm.

 

How many miles are on ur truck?

 

89k.....which is how many miles my '98 Tahoe that I traded had on it. So I got a newer truck with the same amount of miles with a 3year/36k warranty....I'm happy about the deal! BTW....I love your forum name!

 

hahaha thanks! But anyways thats not a bad deal. Congrats on the truck. Its in really good cond. U dont find many like that

 

Tell me about it! I have been shopping for almost three months! Patience wins out! At least, I hope so!
