I wouldnt buy one, just because I can keep modding mine to look newer since the body styles have not changed much....did the 08-10 conversion and thinking about modding to fit the 2011 headlights onto the 08-10 front end...

I wonder where he gets the interior passenger door panels in the 08-11 Super Duty style? The Excursion panel is a little larger than the SD pickup door. I would also like to know where or who does the King Ranch leather for the middle row and back seat. I would love to convert mine over to the KR look.

I know he dont have any 2011s excursions. But his 08 and up work looks great. I cant wait to see him make a 2011 excursion

I work at a car dealer and we havent traded one since I got mine in July of 2008. But if gas /diesel continues to go u[p in price, you should be able to steal one from someone who is scared.

If you find one and have to "think about it", stop thinking and move on. You will know the right Ex when you find it.

Good luck.

LOTS OF FOLKS ARE IMPRESSED WITH FORD EXCURSIONS. TROUBLE IS, NOT ENOUGH FOLKS LEFT WITH THE MONEY TO BUY NEW VEHICLES. IF YOU REVIEW THE SALES FIGURES FOR FORD EXCURSIONS DURING THE LAST YEAR OF PRODUCTION, YOU WILL SEE THE PROBLEM.

YOU SAY THAT 'SOMETHING' TELLS YOU THERE IS STILL A MARKET ? CAN YOU GET A BIG NET AND SNEAK UP ON THAT 'SOMETHING' AND CAPTURE IT...SHIP IT TO FORD'S SALES PEOPLE ? MAYBE THAT WILL CONVINCE THEM, AND THEY WILL RE-START PRODUCTION.
