2000 Ford Excursion Limited Sport Utility 4-door 7.3l 4wd Funkmaster Flex on 2040-cars
Dubuque, Iowa, United States
|
Up for auction is my 2000 Ford Excursion. Yes it has has a prior salvage title in Iowa. I own and operate a shop in town and I bought this truck for myself three years ago from auction. It was wrecked in the front. No frame damage at all. I looked for quite a while to find a nice truck with the 7.3 as I did not want anything to do with that 6.0 liter. Since the truck was wrecked in the front I upgraded all the front end pieces to the 05-07 superduty frontend with all color matched parts and the harley davidson style headlights with 5000k HID conversion on lights and driving lights.On the rear I replaced the chrome bumper with a painted one and custom installed the backup camera into the rear handle assembly and it points directly at the trailer ball as that is the main reason I built this truck, For towing trailers and our camper. The interior is all original except the Clarion NX500 head unit with Navigation and rear monitors for the kids. I do have the third row seat, it's just not in the pictures. The exterior is obviously all custom paint. Top is straight black and the lower is Guards red all done in PPG base clear. The truck was pretty much completely disassembled when painting so the colors go through the jams and everything. The truck was originally black. The 7.3 is all stock except the wicked wheel on the turbo to eliminate the stock wheel flutter under hard boost. The up pipes were all done when the wheel was installed.It does have a superchips programmer in it that stays set on tow safe mode unless were road tripping without a trailer. Then it's on max performance for fuel mileage.The best I seen was 18mpg with 8 people in it on a trip to St.Louis. The brakes are new in the front and new last year in the rear. The Nitto 305/55/r20's are in decent shape with a decent amount of tread left yet. The wheels are definetely what we call 20 footers. I run them year round and it's showing. They look good from a distance but are corroding. Like I said I built this 3 years ago and have put over 50k miles on it with no issues besides basic maintenance. Oil changed every 5k miles with Delvac. Now a few things to know. The Clarion needs to be sent in for service. When inserting a DVD it is suppose to switch from radio screen to DVD but it stopped doing that a few months ago. Just stays on radio so you cant control the player to the rear monitors. They said it would be couple hundred bucks at worse. This is a 14 year old truck and I've done my best to keep the slop off of it in the winter but it's starting to show rust on the inside lips of the doors and the drivers side rear rocker. It could be taken care of by a shop rather easily I would think. The suspension is all original. I was going to put a lift in but it's already tough for the kids to get in and out as it is. Basically we sold the camper and went to a motorhome so I don't really need this truck anymore but I don't have to get rid of it either so no low balling. It's been a great truck for us and they're getting harder to find.

Mustang GT350 reveal coming Nov 17?
Mon, 03 Nov 2014Ford looks to have something really big planned for the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show. The Blue Oval has released the first of five teaser videos on the brand's performance heritage, and aside from some great images of racers over the years, the video includes a series of teaser images, the last of which points to November 17, 2014.
That's the day before press days open in LA, and considering the propensity of global automakers to plan lavish debuts the night before a major international auto show, it's a virtual certainty that Ford will be showing off some sort of special vehicle.
That'd be news in and of itself, but based on the images shown in Ford's teaser video - which include an Alcantara steering wheel, a "Powered by Ford" valve cover, aluminum pedals, sticky tires, a big, round exhaust tip, a honeycomb grille and a serious set of wheels - it seems very likely that Ford will be showing something performance oriented.
Ford Mondeo classes up with premium Vignale trim
Wed, 11 Sep 2013Back in the day, Vignale was a carrozzeria of the highest order, alongside the likes of Pininfarina, Bertone and Zagato. But like Giugiaro-ItalDesign and Ghia, it has since been subsumed into a larger auto group. Ford ended up with it under its umbrella when it took over De Tomaso, and has since used the moniker for a number of concept cars. Now the name is back in the form of a new upscale sub-brand for the European market.
The first new model to receive the Vignale treatment is the Mondeo, which Ford unveiled here at the Frankfurt Motor Show in both sedan and wagon forms. Positioned above the Titanium trim, the Vignale model gets such special touches as chrome trim and a quilted leather interior, Vignale badges replacing any mention of the Mondeo on which it's based. It also gains an ownership experience - including free car washes for life! - to befit the upscale positioning.
Under the bright spotlights above the show floor, the Nocciola metallic brown paint might not be the most photogenic, but will likely give the Vignale edition a more premium look when it hits European dealers and roads in 2015. Whether it'll be worth however much Ford asks for it, however, remains to be seen. Scroll down below for the official press release.
NHTSA and Ford investigating steering issues in Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Marauder
Fri, 11 Jul 2014There may be more steering woes for the Ford Crown Victoria. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened a preliminary evaluation into the Crown Vic and Mercury Grand Marquis from the 2004 to 2007 model years and the Mercury Marauder for the 2004 and 2005 model years because the steering shaft can jam. The issue could potentially affect an estimated 500,000 vehicles.
According to the regulator, there is a possibility that the driver's side heat shield for the exhaust manifold can rust, dislodge, and then wedge into the steering shaft. If this occurs, it leads to a situation where the driver can no longer control the car.
NHTSA has received five complaints of this happening, including one alleged case with an injury. In that situation, the car was driving onto the highway, lost control and rolled over. One occupant was hurt in the accident.
