I don't know about you Pete, but I found that the Excursion is much quieter in the cab then any F250/F350. Your experience may vary.

Yeah, I start reading those and I just close them out...not worth the time it takes to read them. Best bet is to agree to disagree. I don't down anyone's choice of vehicle and expect the same respect...unfortunately, some don't see it that way.

Thanks Jim! I'll pass it along buddy.

So, how is everybody tonight? I finally got my SIRIUS radio in, the dash back together, and everything put away. Long hot day but it's done and it's a beautiful evening outside.

Doing great Tristan. Things are getting a little more back to normal around here now thank goodness. I bet my front door has seen more visitors in the past two days than Wal-Mart's.
