That's against the law! It's my duty to inform the proper authorities.

And who would those proper authorities be? Does anyone really know for sure?

Are they the ones in the black helicopters?

If you know, ExV10, should we be afraid of you?

Are you monitoring this site for unfriendlies?

Is there a government organization secretly monitoring this site?

Are all Excursion owners on a "No fly" list? Do "they" monitor our travels? A vehicle the size of ours would be easily spotted from space. Perhaps there is a satelite dedicated to monitoring us? Should we all paint the roof of our Ex's asphalt black? Have these clandestine efforts been expanded now that the government owns GM?

Do you know you drive an Excursion when you keep seeing black Suburbans in the rear view mirror?

You do not care when a lifted Suburban fills the parking spot before you at the drive in movies. You can still see the bottom of the screen from the back row.

This actually happened this morning…… When I stopped to get fuel this morning I sent my 17 yr old daughter into the store with cash to prepay for a fill up and it took her forever. When she finally came out I asked what took so long and she replied “he had to count the money three times because he has never done a cash sale for that much money before”.

I wasn't near my normal fueling stop and needed fuel the other day, so I went to hess. Well, Hess has a $75 limit that it cuts off, so I went inside. I said I wanted to fill my tank, and hte kid asks how much. I say $130-150, and hes' like o.O. I said just let me fill it and bill the card when I'm done. 20 minutes later(thanks to the slow fill nozzles...), I go in, and get my reciept. It was a huge pain. My normal stop doesn't cut off, ever, but is generally out of the way.

You know you're driving an Excursion when the police pull up to you in a parking lot thinking you are their swat team buddies. Had this happen just the other day - was hilarious. We ended up chatting for a few minutes about the Ex. Maybe owning the Ex will give me some priveldges. haha

You know you're driving an Excursion when you pull up behind a Prius at a stoplight and all they see in their rearview mirro is tire tread. And maybe one fog light.

Thumbs up You know you drive an Ee when

You go to Lowe's to pick up the pallet of Cyprus Mulch you wife purchased, 75 2cuft bags, and the loader has a disgusted look on his face when he sees the Ex and knows he cannot use the forklift. I open the rear doors and the back end and he sees the seats are out and says maybe it will all fit. When we finished loading he was shocked to see their was room for 8 or 10 more bags. Maybe later gotta put out these first. I do love this truck.

5.4
333330 and counting on original engine and trans.

My boss got it to 260K and me and the family did the rest.

...when you fill up at Costco, you pull out a book and sit on the median by the pump to read. Yes, you have enough time to finish a whole chapter.

... when you're called in to tow out a chevy with a 10,000lb trailer that's buried in the mud because you're the only vehicle that has the ability to.

you know you drive an excursion when your mom tells you you should downsize to something smaller like a suburban and doesn't understand your look of disgust after what she has just said

You know you drive an Excursion when your not worried if your wife throws you out. You always have a place to sleep. You just have to decide 2nd row or 3rd row?
