2001 - Ford Excursion on 2040-cars
Wilmington, Delaware, United States
This is a 2001 Ford Excursion Limited. 7.3 Diesel, 4x4. It has been the best all around vehicle I have ever owned. Our family is smaller now and she just doesn’t get driven much anymore, so it is time to find her a new home. The trucks condition is good to excellent, but it does have some imperfections as should be expected in a used vehicle. I will try to mention them all and include pictures where I can, but the truck is being sold as-is, so contact me to inspect for yourself before bidding. Hard to find 7.3 Powerstroke Turbo diesel loaded with options: power leather heated driver’s seat manual heated passenger seat power locks/ windows heated power side mirrors separate front and rear climate controls keyless entry Viper alarm tow Package tilt steering front/rear defrost Am / fm / cassette / CD engine hour counter window / vent visors fog lights wheel locks back up sensors locking gas cap hood protector cargo mat and cargo net Interior: The interior is very good with the exception of 2 seat imperfections and some scratches in the cargo area. One seat imperfection is the side of the drivers’ seat and the other is the seat directly behind the driver (pictures included). Exterior: There is some roof rust and fading to the cargo rack, and there is some rust inside the rear driver’s side door. There are also some minor imperfections such as small scratches as well as one small ding that had been touched up at some point (on top of driver’s side fender near hood). Since the last listing I also got a written estimate from Maaco for the 2 rust spots, just email if you'd like to see it. Mechanical: Mechanically the vehicle has been great and has never failed me. There is a problem with the rear drivers’ side tire that the shop just can not get balanced correctly and it will need to be replaced. It is not noticeable when driving until you get to 60 mph. The other tires are in excellent condition with lots of tread left. I have always used rotella oil and have changed it, the oil filter, and the air filter religiously every 5000 miles since purchase. The only non OEM additions I have made to the truck are the Viper alarm, locking gas cap, the floor mats, and the rear cargo mat. The previous owner had installed an engine hour counter that currently shows 5760.7 hours. Truck is still used occasionally and is available for short test drives, so mileage and hours may go up slightly before auction end. Feel free to contact me with questions. Buyer will be responsible for any shipping of vehicle. I reserve the right to end the auction early as the vehicle is also listed for sale locally. Please contact me before bidding if you have less than 10 feedback. To narrow it down to only serious bidders, a deposit of $500 is required via Paypal within 24 hours of auction end.

PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]
Wed, 19 Jun 2013PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.
Report: GM struggling to market turbo technology
Tue, 20 Apr 2010In the automotive realm, marketing can sometimes prove just as important as the actual product. Take, for instance, Ford's well regarded EcoBoost technology, which couples turbocharging with direct injection to produce more horsepower and reduce fuel consumption. Would it surprise you to hear that General Motors has had similar technology on the market for over three years?
It's true. GM's first turbocharged, direct injected powerplants hit the market for the 2007 model. The 2.0-liter Ecotec mills put down an impressive 260 horsepower and a matching 260 pound-feet of torque, and they were lauded by the press in the engine bays of the Pontiac Solstice, Saturn Sky, Chevrolet Cobalt SS and Chevrolet HHR SS. But few people outside a core group of enthusiasts actually remember this fact.
Says Uwe Grebe, executive director of GM's global advanced engineering, "We didn't have a badge and say, 'This is the most important thing we will put on all our brochures.'" Ford, however, did just that, and it's EcoBoost engines are right at the tips of all our tongues when we discuss today's most advanced powerplants. So, how does The General fix its mistake?
Ford hybrids getting update to improve fuel economy
Tue, 16 Jul 2013Ford has announced that it is introducing "calibration updates designed to improve on-road fuel economy for owners of the 2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid, 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid and 2013 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid."
We can speculate that these changes are at least due in part to lawsuits over mileage claims of hybrid vehicles. The automaker is enhancing 2013 models starting in August by raising their electric cruising speed to 85 miles per hour from 62 mph, optimizing the use of active grille shutters and the climate control system, shortening the engine warm-up period by 50 percent and reducing electric fan speed to minimize the fan's energy consumption.
It bears mentioning that Ford is doing pretty well in the US electrified vehicle market this year. The company claims to have grown its share in the segment by 12 points to 16 percent while taking a high number of Toyota Prius trade-ins in the process. Conversely, Toyota has experienced a five-percent drop in new-Prius sales over the same period. Additionally, Ford states that it has increased its share of the US vehicle market by one percent this year, more than any full-line automaker.
