This has been an awesome truck and you will read I just put 8K into it because its and awesome truck and I won't sell a piece of crap! So on with it!
New tires, brakes, hydroboost, down tubes, rear main seal, turbo tower seal, batteries, alternator.
Equipment:
4" lift, 35" tires on black Weld rims,
Banks Stinger kit
   Larger inner cooler, turbo upgrade, 4" exhaust w/5"tip and chip. This entire system is on the CARB list so NO smog issues in Ca. Also this truck is a 48 state so NO cat either.
Amsoil bypass oil filter, trans filter, rear swaybar, rear airbags with in cab pump, trailer brakes, 1000watt amp, Eclipse stereo/navigation/VTR, 10" woofer, infinity door speakers, 10" DVD player/game console with wireless hand controls, 

Things to be aware of:
I removed the banks chip BC it was having electrical gremlins which have stopped and I need to send the chip to Banks to be tested. The truck runs perfect in the factory settings just not quick BC no chip. 
There are some minor dings, scratches, normal for a truck thats been well used and cared for. clear coat peeling on the rear lid (typical on ALL Excursions) and fading on the fender flares. When I purchsed the truck the drivers seat foam  sagged as shown in the picture, it never bothered me enough to replace. Caused from exiting mostly. If you buy you'll see what I mean. The rear tv latch is broken so the screen doesn't stow nicely (the joy of kids) it works fine. You can also watch why ever is play on the DVR on the front screen.
I have owned this truck since 05, it gets on average 16mpg sometimes better sometimes worse depending on my mood. I love this thing, but the kids are grown, the wife is now called X so no more family trips and its more than I need. I just invested almost 8K bringing up to snuff and it sits mostly under a cover in the driveway. I drive it a couple times a week to keep the batteries up and oil surfaces wet. 
If you have any questions you can email me and we'll go from there. It is listed locally so it might just disappear before you know it!    I may consider a VW Bus Camper in trade, but it needs to be up to snuff!

And the Top Gear UK Cars of the Year for 2013 are...

Tue, 17 Dec 2013

Those loony Brits at Top Gear have named their Car of the Year, and if you're thinking it's the McLaren P1, Jaguar F-Type, Land Rover Range Rover Sport or Rolls-Royce Wraith, we're sorry to inform you that none of those Anglo automobiles earned the crown. In fact, the winner of Top Gear's most prestigious award is quite the surprise.
Of course, those cars weren't without their own awards. The P1 was the top hypercar (sorry, Porsche 918 and Ferrari LaFerrari), while the F-Type netted best convertible and the Range Rover Sport was voted SUV of the Year. Other honorable mentions included the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black and S-Class, the Porsche 911 GT3, the BMW i3 and the Ferrari 458 Speciale. The winner, though, wasn't even a high-dollar supercar. It was the Ford Fiesta ST.
Yes, the Fiesta ST beat out some off-the-wall cars like the revolutionary Volkswagen XL1 and the bonkers Peugeot 208 T16 Pikes Peak, not to mention all the cars we listed above, to take the title of Top Gear Car of the Year. And if you've driven one, you'll completely understand why.

Ford Fusion demand outstripping supply

Sat, 15 Jun 2013

The attractive new 2013 Ford Fusion has done wonders for the brand in the highly competitive midsize sedan segment - the vehicle is up nearly 22 percent compared to last year. But that sales momentum may soon hold steady due to low inventory levels of the new Fusion across the United States.
According to a report in The Detroit News, citing automotive data and Ward's Auto, Ford currently has a 39-day supply of the Fusion. That might sound fine, but a normally healthy average is about a 60-day supply. If Ford were to stop production on the Fusion today, there would only be enough vehicles available to get through another five weeks of sales, according to the News.
Currently, Ford produces the Fusion at its three-shift assembly plant in Hermosillo, Mexico, and will add production at its facility in Flat Rock, MI later this year. A Ford spokesperson told The Detroit News that when Flat Rock production comes online, the automaker will need to rush new stock out to the regions with the most demand for the Fusion. Ford has doubled its coastal retail market share, with huge amounts of growth in areas like Los Angeles, San Francisco and Miami, the News reports.

2020 Toyota Highlander vs other 3-row crossovers: There can only be one!

Fri, Dec 20 2019

We've done quite a few spec comparison posts involving three-row family crossovers, and when included, the Toyota Highlander has always been the runt of the group. While the rest increasingly seemed to be benchmarking each other toward greater girth, the Highlander was the outlier.  That changes a bit for the 2020 Toyota Highlander, but only a bit. It's now larger and more competitive, specifically in regards to the amount of cargo space aft of the third-row seat. As you can see below, this aligns the Highlander most closely to its long-time competitor the 2020 Honda Pilot. However, let's see how it stacks up to others in the segment, which is heavily populated now, so for the sake of space, we've selected the newest entries: Kia Telluride, Hyundai Palisade, Subaru Ascent and Ford Explorer. The order in which they are presented is random.  Performance and fuel economy The 2020 Highlander is more than 200 pounds lighter than its predecessor, but has the same 295-horsepower V6 engine that was already one of the strongest in the segment. We'd say that would give it a leg up, but the Pilot and Explorer have proven to be sprinters, delivering 0-60 times in the low-6 range by some publications' stopwatches (or VBoxes, whatever). We don't expect the Highlander to beat them, but it may dip into the 6's. The heavy, less-powerful Subaru Ascent is most likely to take up the rear. It's fuel economy of 23 mpg combined also matches the Highlander and Explorer for segment-best. Remember, however, that the Explorer's turbocharged inline-four engine is likely more susceptible to differences in driving style (read: a heavy foot).  Of course, if you're really interested in fuel economy, the Highlander and Explorer are the only vehicles in the segment to offer hybrid versions. The Ford Explorer Hybrid puts a greater emphasis on performance, however, resulting in lower estimates of 25 mpg combined (AWD) and 28 mpg combined (FWD). By contrast, the new 2020 Toyota Highlander Hybrid is estimated to return 36 mpg combined.  Passenger and cargo space According to Highlander chief engineer Yoshikazu Saeki, he had a choice of two directions with the new Highlander. He could have indeed made it bigger, matching these very competitors, especially in terms of third-row and cargo space. Or, he could have maintained a smaller-than-average size. He obviously chose the latter. First, it was the size customers had come to expect. Would they be put off by something bigger?
