Hoax or not??

Guys,

Looking to buy this EX..

It is on AutoTrader.com..I cannot get the link to post??

If you search...Just put in Ford Excursion price range from 5k to 6k...It is the EX for 5700. It is Estate Green...It is an 2000 EX...151,500 miles....The owner sent me some more pics. In the pics he sent me I noticed it has power pedals?? Did the 2000 model have power pedals??
It is a 7.3L diesel..Looks immaculate..I am alittle leary..

Plz help..

I think the pedals came in the 03 and newer, not that the owner didn't put them in. I have thought about it myself, just have not looked into it yet.

I think they were Limited model only until (I think) 2001.....then you could option them on any trim level.

well the only way to find out would be to go out and take a look yourself. truck looks great and it is at a bargain price for that type of care he puts into it.

heres the link for it: http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...standard=false

I guess it depends on how rusty that rust bucket is. Go look at it.

Thanks All!!

I'm trying to look at it, but the seller will not respond back to my e mails. The EX had the CPS recall done in Louisville, KY on 8/10/09 per the OASIS. That is all the OASIS showed. The seller stated it was in KY. I live in Lexington, so I'm not that far away. I'm dying to look at it...Hopefully he'll respond back...Just seems to be good to be true!

Why does the autotrader ad show the location as New York, NY?

It looks like a nice truck, but the price does seem a bit low. I would be very cautious, but at the same time it might be a great deal on the up and up. Definitely listen to your gut and of course the wealth of knowledge here.

I'd be careful.

Mine is an 02 limited 7.3 with adjustable pedals.

In regards to the autotrader X. Where are the fog lights in the front? I thought all limited X's have fog lights.
