I got an Excursion FINALLY!!!

After searching and searching I FINALLY found an Excursion!!! Pick it up tomorrow from my dealer, they are Ford Certifying it tomorrow!!! I never did get an Oasis on this one, just a carfax and DMV report and all was good. Very nice and clean!! The only thing I wish it had was the dumbo mirrors, but I can swap those out right? Here are some pictures since I know I will get beat down if I dont post a picture.

Its an 03 Ex Limited 4x4 v10!!!

Congratulations on your new to you X. Once you go X you never go back. Had an X about 3yrs ago, sold it, owned 2 superduty pick-ups, now I'm satisfied back in the X. Hope you enjoy it.

Nice lookin' truck!

But your fogs look a little out of place...make sure your truck wasn't involved in an accident.

Cogratulations!!! Looks real nice!! I don't understand the "Sport Mirrors". Seems like a lot of the Limiteds had them; if I wanted sport mirrors, I'd get a sports car!! Enjoy your prize!!!

I have to ask, was it a fleet/rental vehicle?

Almost every gold limited I looked at with the sport mirrors was a former rental.

No the guy was a doctor and the only owner. I hate the sport mirrors though.

If it's a 4x4 will it have the rear stabilizer bar without the tow mirrors?

You know I dont know!!! Guess I will have to find out. I know it has the tow package just the small mirrors. I will be putting a new stabilizer bar in anyway.
