I purchased this 2004 Excursion brand new. I have taken great care of this vehicle and can vouch for all of the work that has been done. This truck is in excellent condition and looks and runs great. I am not a dealer and don't speak in code. If you have any questions I will give you honest answers as soon as possible. Here is a list of the items that have been done to upgrade its abilities and keep it in like new condition: Starting with the engine. Professional rework of the engine to include ARB Head Studs, Liberator External Oil Cooler, upgraded FICM (Fuel Injection Control Module) and Bulletproof EGR Cooler. If you have done any research on the Ford 6.0L engine these modifications are necessary to have confidence that the vehicle can be used for towing. Talk to a diesel mechanic, the 6.0L is an excellent engine once these modifications are completed. I have had oil analysis done on this engine since new, if you would like the latest report just let me know and I'll shoot you a copy. Upon recommendation of a diesel mechanic I added an AMSOil Bypass Oil Filtration System. This system takes a small amount of oil from the top of the oil filter and runs it through a 2 micron AMS Filter. This system is in operation in parallel with the Ford oil filtration system but has a much more efficient filter. Ultra clean oil means super long engine life. These type of bypass setups are used in over the road rigs that have engine life that typically exceed 800,000 miles prior to repairs being required. AirAid air filtration system. The better an engine breathes the more power it can develop. The oil pans on the transmission and the rear differential have been replaced by Mag-Hytec Units. These oil pans almost double the oil capacity of the reservoirs. More oil equals lower temperatures. Batteries have been replaced with Odyssey AGM Batteries. These are the best batteries made today for an automobile. Firestone Air Bags with an on board air compressor and storage bottle allow for height adjustment when pulling a trailer. I did not have to use much air pressure but I believe the ride was improved by the addition of the air bags. New Monroe Magnum Shocks on all four corners and front tie rod dampener assembly ~500 miles ago. New Napa Super Premium rotors and brakes on the front axle ~ 200 miles ago. I replaced the Ford 4WD front locking hubs with high quality Warn Locking Hubs due to having intermittent operation of the Ford Hubs in winter. It is not acceptable to me to have a feature unavailable due to the OEM's design being inadequate. The hubs do have to be engaged manually however the vehicle can be used in the 2 wheel drive mode with the hubs left locked in and there is no problem doing that. I have installed the following Autometer Gauges to be able to monitor engine, transmission and rear differential parameters. Engine exhaust temperature, engine turbo boost pressure, engine oil pressure, transmission oil temperature to the cooler and rear differential temperature. I work as an operator at a power plant and am able to monitor conditions around the plant with installed instrumentation. Ford did not have the instrumentation that I believe is necessary to monitor your vehicle especially while towing so I added it. A Superchips Tuner and Code Reader is included with the vehicle. I used the "economy" mode mainly with the truck and when rolling down the highway was able to get 18 mpg at 65 mph. Not to bad for a rig of this size. Tekonsha Trailer Brake Controller that is located between the oil pressure and differential temperature gauges goes with the truck. Nice looking Ford OEM Wheels and tires that are in great shape and have been siped for better performance in wet conditions. Brand new windshield as of 9/8/2014 thanks to a big rock. This vehicle is what I would consider barely broken in. It is ready to go, smoke free and I doubt you could find a more capable Excursion anywhere. I have a lot of pride in the work that has been done on this vehicle. There are a few minor dings and scratches, very minor and they do not take away from the vehicle at all. If you have any questions or need more pictures please just let me know. Buyer will be responsible for picking up vehicle. $750 deposit required within 24 hours. Upon receipt of deposit I will get a picture of the odometer and send it to you. The car will not be driven and will be kept inside until picked up. I am flexible on the time required to come and get the truck. Send an email if you have questions on this.
