Actually that's a YES on the full floater. The Sterling 10.5 is a full floating axle.

Agreed, 6K is tops on an 10 year old fleet truck in perfect condition.

they never came in the excursions...but in the super duty they went 3 valve in 2005. the excursions kept the 2 valve in 2005 since it was its last year alive.

btw thanks! now i'm going to stop by park and sell tomarrow and take a look at the '03 limited they have.

no price on it online thats one thing i want to check, but top book i just looked up was $12k somthing...and i looked mine up and top on its 15k which i find astounding! i guess a extra year and options make a differance?

if its got the options i have (dvd, rear sensors, 6 disk, power pedels) and they could do it..i would think hard about trading them.

I think $6500.00 is not too bad of a price. I am seeing that around where I live Excursions are going up. I was really surprised at the prices in the last paper I looked at. Good Luck.

Just bug him a few more times. Keep telling him it is a base model that was probably even a government vehicle. Then, be sure to let him know that you have 60 one hundred dollar bills in your pocket for him RIGHT NOW!

ya i need to call him to ask the gear ratio also.. maybe i will throw in the i got 60 100's into the conversation too. maybe if it might have been government then it might have the towing gears... he doesnt have the push in head rests for th e2nd row of seats either, he said he never got them with it when he bought it, so it has the holes but no headrests.

Doubt it about the gears. Government probably bought the cheapest they could buy and that means the cheapest to run too.

Carfax would probably show if it was a fleet vehicle to start its life or not. Have you got one yet? Would be funny if you got one and it had a wreck on there too.

My dad bought a Corolla a few years back and the lady said it had never been wrecked. It had the worst bondo job on the back left quarter panel I've ever seen. lol
