Once again, totally missing the point. I swear I'm not trying to be argumentative, but the wrecker comment was supposed to allude to the fact that this is aimed at a niche market. Now, does the fact that you are not the niche it is aimed at make it a waste? I really don't think so. Using that line of reasoning, you could say that every specialty vehicle that isn't geared specifically for something you can use is "a waste". I have absolutely no use for an Excursion limo, but I wouldn't call them a waste.

OK.. It's not my niche. So why are they selling this specialty vehicle that will probably rot at the asking price $45? I'd love to have it and use everything that I could, but still have the stock appearance. It had a purpose and that purpose is long gone now. I understand your point and 100% agreed with you, but I used WASTE as the wrong word. How about.. it's not of my inoperable taste.

WTH?!

No 8-track player?

I'm out!

I almost bought it. But if it can't play my Three Dog Night and Iron Butterfly 8-tracks it's worthless.

This vehicle is not about the excursion but the system. Just happens the system is in an excursion.

Not sure if I've seen a F-250 wrecker either. 350, 450, 550 yes.
