Lemon Law Title - Oasis

Can I get an Oasis on 1FMNU42P35EB44885 please?

2005 model, it was a Lemon Law buyback but has a good price on it.

I have a strange feeling the Lemon Law buyback was in reference to repeated troubles with the 6.0 diesel perhaps.

Thanks!

Post it on this thread and follow the instructions. You'll probably get a much quicker response there.

Doesn't look like that thread is very active. Only has less than 2 pages since October 2008.

It's active. I've used it many times and have an OASIS within two days at the most.

The reason for their being a low amount of responses is because the posts are deleted when you get your report. It says that in the first post: "Someone will email you the report, and when I am notified the report was sent, I'll remove your post so your email address and VIN doesn't stay here forever."

Ewwww! Wow! I got the Oasis.

I wouldn't touch this Excursion with a 20 foot pole. I can see why the seller disclosed the fact that it has a Lemon Law buyback title. In my opinion, this one Oasis report alone has pretty much turned me against the 6.0 Diesel. Ford should have to give 6.0 owners a lifetime warranty.

You got that right!!!!


By the way, if anybody is still interested, you can view the Excursion in the link below.

With all the repairs, it might be a good truck now. The dealer is wise to mention it is a Lemon Law buyback, at least they are being honest. And the price is reasonable.

I don't know, you could drive it for a few months then moth ball it so you have a second set of everything for your regular driver. The leather looks in good shape, the body appears straight, if it dies in a couple of years, you'll have a decent donor. I wouldn't spend that much on a parts truck, but it might be worth while to have when ford discontinues all of the wear parts in the next couple of years.

Wow, terrible report.

One could buy it and slap in new 6.0 from Innovative Diesel. Don't they sell 6.0s basically how you want them?
