you know you drive an Excursion when

You know you drive an Excursion when... First thing you do right after you buy one is to measure height and length of the excursion and the check the measurement of the size of your garage. <OYou know you drive an Excursion when... You start getting estimates for a bigger garage.<O<OYou know you drive an Excursion when... you pull up to hotels and night clubs and have to tell people, “No, I’m not the limo.”<O</O
<O</O
You know you drive an Excursion when... the drunks on the road are more afraid of your Excursion than the police.

You drive a diesel excursion, when the lie-o-meter pegs at 999 miles to empty after a fillup on a long hiway trip.

On 3/4 of a tank left, 883 miles to empty remain...

Right!

Especially since mine is all black, it looks like a State Trooper or Montgomery County Police when it's dark out. So they're scared either way...

You don't know how many people I've pulled up behind and they either start slowing down or everyone is as stiff as a board, lmbo!

You know you drive an Excursion when you pull up to the pumps at the Kwik Chek, tell the attendant to fill it, go inside get a few sandwiches and drinks to come back out a few minutes later and find the attendant looking under your Ex for a gas leak since he can't believe its still pumping.

you know you drive an excursion and post here, when you are looking at each excursion on the road and trying to see if it is someone you know. I think I counted more than 10 Excursions on my trip to Seattle today. Some really nice looking ones too!

You know you drive an Excursion (that's jacked up) when....

You are new to FTE and you spend time reading 41 pages of posts on the subject and laugh the whole time.

When you pass a tractor trailer on the highway, and his truck sways, but yours doesn't.

When your daughter would rather go to her graduation in the Ex, over a Limo.

When you pull in to the baseball park, and a guy on the other team says "Holy F***, Gravedigger just pulled in"

You can see every person you pass on the street, walking or in a car, mouth the words "OMG that thing is huge!"
