This is a NO RESERVE auction! The high bidder will win this Excursion! This is the one that everyone is looking for! The legendary 7.3 Powerstroke diesel! This Excursion has had lots of dealer service and the engine runs like a top. It starts immediately even when below freezing and sitting for several days. It has ZERO blow-by and does not smoke at all! With only 191K miles this 7.3 is just getting broken in! The transmission was professionally built less than 500 miles (3 weeks) ago! I have the receipt for the work which included a billet converter and extra clutches! The transmission comes with a 2 year unlimited miles warranty so no worries there! Also just last week I had a 4" turbo back exhaust system installed to allow this big 7.3 to breath better, the cat is removed but it does have a muffler so it's not very loud...if you prefer it loud, the muffler is clamp mounted so you can straight pipe it in 15 minutes in your driveway. It has a brand new severe duty ford factory air filter assembly which improves filtration and allows more air flow, this is a $400 setup! Driving this Excursion is a pleasure, it's very smooth and very strong running!. The steering is very tight, it tracks straight with no wondering or play in the front end or steering box. When you hit the brakes there is no pulsing or pulling, you can let go of the wheel and it stops straight. The 4x4 works as it should, I've tested it in our gravel parking area and it goes into and out of 4x4 quickly and quietly. The fluid in the transfer case is nice and clean too. The tires are a matching set of BFGoodrich radials with about 80% left on them. There is no cupping or uneven wear at all which indicates that the front end components are in good condition. Underneath the vehicle there are no leaks whatsoever. This has been a southern vehicle since new so there are no rust issues, it's spotless underneath! The paint is in very good condition and the appearance is really quite nice. The wheels are free from curb rash and they look great! The interior is in excellent condition, the headliner is not sagging anywhere, the front seats show minimal wear, the back seats are like new, the carpet is very clean with no stains anywhere! I just purchased and installed a full set of Husky floor mats and trunk liner mat for it in matching tan, so you don't have to worry about getting the carpet or the mats dirty....plus they're easy to clean, just wipe them out and they look like new! There are no funny smells! No smoking ever! The interior plastic pieces are all there, there's no broken vents, handles, knobs or latches! Everything works as it should. The stereo is original and the speakers still sound great! It does have an aftermarket Sirius receiver in it, obviously professionally installed, that could be used or removed at your discretion. All of the doors open and close solidly and the widows go up and down properly. All door lock actuators work as they should whether from the remote key fobs or the door mounted buttons. The AC is ICE cold! The heat is working great...I cannot think of anything that it needs at all! Call me with any questions PRIOR to placing a bid at 770-616-3222. With everything I've done to it and as perfect as it is there is one obvious question...Why am I selling it??? I need a truck bed, I had a VERY nice 99' 7.3 F350 that I sold a few weeks ago and I have to admit it was a mistake. The Excursion is much more comfortable, but I own a landscaping company and the lack of a truck bed is keeping me from being able to use the Excursion as I had intended. Plus, it's too darn nice for me to justify using it for work. So it's gotta go. I have a clean and clear Georgia title in my personal name and in my hand ready to go. There are NO OTHER added fees to the final bid amount! I have to mention that this Excursion is listed locally so I reserve the right to sell it before the auction ends should someone make an offer that I cannot refuse. Good luck to you, someone is going to get a really nice find!!! BIDDING- Please only bid what you are prepared to pay for this vehicle.
