Ultimate Towing And Family Trip Excursion - Many Add-ons on 2040-cars
Hopkins, Minnesota, United States
|
2005 Excursion Eddie Bauer 6.0 Diesel White with low mileage and $12,000 in upgrades.
This Excursion was ordered by the owner of a dealership in North Dakota as one of the last Ford Excursions off the line before they stopped making them (they dont make them any newer than this vehicle). He used it sparingly for several years and I purchased it from him in 2010 and have taken it on several trips towing our camper. Other than those trips I have not really towed much with it. It didnt even go into service until 2007 and was under warranty when I purchased it. I am the first owner from the dealership. Since 2010 then I have taken extremely good care of the vehicle and upgraded the parts of the vehicle that were lacking. This is truly how the vehicle should have come from the factory as Stock. It has been setup to be the ultimate Excursion Tow Vehicle and family trip vehicle. This is a one of a kind vehicle that is perfect for the family that wants to tow a camper or boat in a rock solid towing platform plus all the comforts of a luxury vehicle. 2005 Excursion Diesels in great condition and under 100k miles (which is really just getting the engine broken in) are going for around 25-30k. Consider that in addition to belonging to this group I have also added the following upgrades which have cost over 12k and at the same time I have left the engine stock never having modified it in any way - so no worries that it was abused. They do not make these vehicles anymore and there is really nothing like it - I assume if you are viewing this you already know this fact. Some key facts: 2005 Ford Excursion Eddie Bauer Towing Package 4x4 Heated Mirrors Entertainment Package Oxford White with Medium Parchment Leather Interior Upgrades: Set of 5 (full size spare) 285/75 R16 Goodyear Wrangler Silent Armor Pro Grade (these are stiff sidewalls and the absolute best for towing) V/B suspension upgrade which gives it about a 2 inch lift. Rear leaf springs use a F350 leaf on the bottom of the stack which gives the back about a half inch more but is perfect for towing heavy loads. High output alternator Rancho RS 9000xl adjustable shocks Helwig Sway Bar Bullet Proof Diesel upgrade FICM RedHead Steering gear (to remove the play in the Ford Truck Steering). New soundsystem with Kenwood double din stereo and navigation. new speakers and sub. $1000 of soundproofing and a backup camera. This was over 5k and was installed less than a year ago Engine compartment Hood Pad Upgraded door Seal Mod (door seals are rock solid) Prodigy Brake Controller |

Ford running short of F-150 frames
Sun, Jun 7 2015Like most any automaker, Ford is eager to build as many F-150 pickups as it can sell. And considering that the truck has long stood as the top selling vehicle in the United States, that means building (and selling) a lot of them. Further, Ford reports that its factories are finally fully up to speed and ready to build as many F-150s as dealers can sell. Unfortunately another factor is reportedly preventing the new aluminum-bodied pickup from reaching its potential. According to Automotive News and as we've heard before, the Blue Oval automaker has had trouble getting its hands on as many frames as it needs. Though Ford would not confirm the shortage itself, AN cites union sources in reporting that the Metalsa plant in Kentucky, which produces the new F-150's frame for Ford, has been unable to meet the demand for more such frames. "Whenever you have launches, you have issues that you have to deal with in the supply base," is all Ford CFO Bob Shanks would admit. "We're always working closely with suppliers if there's an issue to sort it out. If that were the case, that's what we'd be doing." The reported supply shortage could be why plans for overtime production are reportedly being canceled at both the plants in Kansas City and Dearborn where the F-150s are assembled, despite reaching or nearing full capacity. The shortage could also help explain why, according to AN, sales of the F-Series in the United States fell nearly 10 percent last month, while the rest of the pickup market rose 17 percent.
