2000 ford excursion

This was our 03 7.3 X ....was the wife's ride. Loved that rig.

Never towed more than 10k with it as I always had a F350 handy at the time for the heavier loads.

One of the few rigs I truly regret selling.

Looks like a jewel... Last Saturday I was coming back from Matagorda bay from fishing passing thru a small town and there was a Excursion with the same color parked in front of someone's house with a "For Sale" sign on it. I sure was tempted to stop and ask what were they selling it for, but the problem is my wife doesn't like driving large vehicles. In addition I would prefer to have one with a 6.0PSD and a coil spring/large swing arm suspension like the current Super Duty's have.

it's a 7.3 diesel!
was no way of telling the folks that it was diesel when it wasn't running, soooo i put on a powerstroke badge.
gets comments now!!!

No it’s not, can’t be. I haven’t heard it run, you’re lying!
(Do I sound like any of the other dingleberry pessimists in this thread?)

JK man, nice, last of its kind, rig. And a great find.
I still maintain, if 1 of the big 3 just put out a HD suv, gas and diesel option for a few short years again, they would absolutely clean house with profits.

Got it, but that is a 6.0L badge! :B

That truck is a great find with the best diesel Ford has ever put into their trucks.

That is because there is no smog junk on it

He put the 6.0 badges on it so nobody would try to buy or steal it from him. They see it's got a 6.0, and move on.
