THIS VEHICLE IS LOCATED IN BINGHAMTON NEW YORK 13901 I purchased this vehicle from a New Jersey family in October of 2012 with 152,221 miles on it and loved it so much that I purchased a second Excursion V10 2004 Eddie Bauer from a Philadelphia Ford dealer with 48,600 miles on it in mint condition for 22K so am offering this 2003 Excursion for sale. The drive train is strong and the SUV is very powerful. It has excellent tires and the brake pedal is right at the top. It has new breaks, rotors and is in overall excellent condition. There are no squeaks or rattles and you know when you're driving this vehicle on the highway you are completely safe and in command of your surroundings. I am posting photos of when I purchased the vehicle as well as recent photos to show you the differences and changes I made to the vehicle such as HID head lights, 5 bumper mounted Halogen highway lights and paddle mirrors. I will also be giving the new owner the original tow mirrors that came with this vehicle. I will post the newer photos starting Sunday February 2nd, 2014 after 12 noon. The vehicle also comes with an Audiovox GPS system, however, you will have to purchase the correct CD for the region you reside in and it must be for the Excursion. Ford made a big mistake when it discontinued this SUV body on a 3/4 ton truck chassis under government preasure as the newer replacement Expidition is built on a 1/2 ton chassis. This vehicle is in so much demand that people are custom making these vehicles by clipping them with late model salvage Ford Super Duty pick-up trucks to make 2011 to 2013 custom Excursions at around $65,000.00 with an average of 65,000 miles. Just Google 2011 - 13 Excursion and you may find some for sale. The Ford Excursion is a heavy duty, full size sport utility vehicle produced by the Ford Motor Company from 2000 through 2005 for the North American market and through 2006 for Mexico. Based on the heavy-duty, full-size Super Duty line of trucks. The Excursion was Ford's largest SUV in its lineup, and the largest and heaviest on the North American market during the tenure of its production. It competed mainly against the lighter duty Chevrolet Suburban and GMC Yukon XL 1500 and 2500 models. The Excursion was introduced in 1999 as a 2000 model-year vehicle. It was described as the "biggest sport utility on the planet."[3] Sales were initially good, peaking in the 2000 model year with over 50,000 sales. As gasoline prices rose, sales declined.[4] Industry insiders expected Ford to stop producing the Excursion, but sales continued through the 2005 model year. 2005 model grills and bumpers were changed to match the newer styling of the Super Duty trucks. The last Excursion was produced on September 30, 2005, at Ford's Louisville plant, although the last Excursions were sold as 2006 models for the Mexican market. Production of the Excursion was canceled to focus on Super Duty pickup trucks.[5] An extended-length Expedition half-ton, named the Expedition EL (Max in Canada and Mexico) replaced the Excursion in the company's lineup for the 2007 model year. Designed for buyers with super-sized passenger, interior cargo and towing needs, the Excursion design was based on the 1999 F250 Super Duty line of pickup trucks. It shares the front frame, front and rear suspension, drivetrain, steering and styling with the F250. The length, width, track and wheelbase are the same as the standard cab 8 feet bed Styleside pickup models and has similar maneuverability. It is essentially a F250 modified into a SUV.[6] Engines included the standard gasoline Triton 5.4 L V8, as well as the optional gasoline Triton 6.8 L V10, and the Power Stroke 7.3 L V8diesel engine. The 2003 models replaced the 7.3 L International diesel with a more powerful 6.0 L International diesel. A 4-speed 4R100 automatic transmission was the standard transmission for all years of gas engines and the 7.3 diesels. Later vehicles equipped with the 6.0 liter diesel came with a 5 speed Torqshift transmission. [7] The 5.4 L Triton V8 was rated at 255 hp (190 kW; 259 PS) and 350 lb·ft (475 N·m). The 6.8 L Triton V10 produced 310 hp (231 kW; 314 PS) and 425 lb·ft (576 N·m). The 6.0 L Powerstroke Diesel was rated at 350 hp (261 kW; 355 PS) and 560 lb·ft (759 N·m). In mid 2004, due to multiple 6.0 engines having injector failures, Ford down-tuned all 6.0 engines to 325 hp (242 kW; 330 PS). The rear axle for all Excursions was a Sterling 10.5 axle. The four wheel drive models were equipped with a NV273 transfer case and Dana 50 front axle. Built using the same platform and powertrain as the Super Duty (a line of trucks over 8,500 lb (3,900 kg) GVWR), the Excursion received complaints and criticism over its fuel economy as a passenger vehicle, while Super Duty line-up did not. [8] The Excursion was designed to be classified as a heavy-duty vehicle, as for commercial or rural use, with a GVWR 8,900 lb (4,000 kg) - gasoline V10 engine and 9,200 lb (4,200 kg) - any diesel engine which exempted the vehicle from CAFE fuel economy regulations and quoting United States Environmental Protection Agency(EPA) fuel economy estimates.[9] The Excursion was modified to include an under-bumper blocker beam device first developed by the French transportation ministry in 1971.[10] This was because initial crash testing resulted in the Excursion severely over-riding a Ford Taurus in a head-on collision. In the test, the Excursion's tire ended in the Taurus's windshield, reducing the chance of survival for the Taurus driver.[10] The truck uses code U4 in the 5th and 6th positions of the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). In 2003 the Excursion saw the availability of an upmarket Eddie Bauer trim line. AT THE BUY IT NOW PRICE THIS VEHICLE AS EQUIPPED AND CONDITION IS ONE OF THE LOWEST ON ANY SITE. GOOD LUCK BIDDING. |

Ford CEO Mark Fields takes home $18.6 million
Fri, Mar 27 2015Sitting atop the throne at Ford Motor Company is, as it turns out, a fairly lucrative gig. We make that statement after learning, through SEC filings, that FoMoCo's Mark Fields raked in $18.6 million in compensation during his first year as CEO. Now, as is so often the case, Fields' earnings weren't just straight salary. Only $1.7 million of that sum was from his salary, while another $3.2 million came from cash bonuses. The remaining $13.7 million, though, came from what The Detroit Free Press called "long-term stock options, performance equity awards and compensation for items such as security and travel," according to the SEC filing. That makes for a significant raise for Fields, who made $10.1 million in 2013, but it still doesn't match his predecessor, former CEO Alan Mulally. The 69-year-old Mulally earned $23.2 million in his final year as CEO, while bringing in $1 million last year as part of a $22 million compensation package. Fields' earnings may ruffle some features for a few reasons. First, while the Freep reports that Ford hit 91 percent of its performance goals, 2014's earnings were down $4 billion, to $3.2 billion, compared to the $7.2 billion the company made in 2013. On top of that, the CEO's take-home might be sour grapes for hourly employees, who were only treated to checks worth $6,900, as part of a profit-sharing plan. To that, Ford said in a statement that, "We remain absolutely committed to aligning executive compensation with the company's business performance and to tying a significant portion of executive compensation to long-term shareholder value."

Ford to rebrand SVT as 999?
Mon, 22 Sep 2014Ford operates a number of performance divisions around the world. There's SVT in the US, Team RS in Europe and Ford Performance Vehicles (FPV) in Australia. But the Blue Oval has been steadily integrating its performance operations into one unit, and here we might have our first indication of what it will be called.
A reader at Jalopnik sent in a survey in which respondents were asked to gauge the name for a new performance brand from a "major automotive manufacturer," and while the identity of that automaker was not disclosed, according to the survey, the automaker is considering the name 999 for its new go-fast unit.
As our compatriots point out, the 999 was Ford's first racecar, a rudimentary chassis with a 19-liter inline-four campaigned by Henry Ford around the turn of the 20th century. (Ford also used the number to designate a Fusion fuel-cell racer a few years back.) That could prove the tie-in Dearborn is looking for in rebranding its performance operations worldwide, replacing the letters SVT, RS and FPV globally under one name.
Ford offering factory-spec EcoBoost reflashes that don't void warranty*
Sat, Dec 27 2014Buy a supercharger or cold-air kit from Ford Racing and a Performance Calibration handset comes with it to reset the ECU for the upgrade. Now Ford Racing is offering the ProCal handset a la carte for $595, allowing you to reflash the ECU on your EcoBoost-equipped ride to extract more of its inherent capabilities without any additional upgrades. It gives you control of variables such as throttle response, idle speed and turbo wastegate control, among others. As for that warranty asterisk, the press release says enthusiasts can up the power "while maintaining the Ford-backed limited warranty." However Ford Motor Co. and Ford Racing are separate entities, and, best we can tell, when you reflash the ECU, your Ford warranty gets supplanted by the Ford Racing warranty. Say you bought a 2014 Ford, that means your five-year, 60,000-mile warranty becomes Ford Racing's three-year, 36,000-mile warranty, if we're reading the fine print correctly. If you have an older car and have driven more than 36,000 miles, then your warranty options are kaput, at least as far as a Ford in-house option. If have warranty concerns, you might also want to consider having a dealer perform the reflash, or at least ask about it. Once you've got past the small print, what about the numbers? At the moment Ford Racing offers tunes for the 2.0-liter EcoBoost in the Focus ST and the 1.6-liter EcoBoost in the Fiesta ST, and we're told there's a 90-pound-foot boost in torque at the crank after you've pressed the right buttons. Anecdotal evidence from a commenter at Road & Track says he went from 252 horsepower at the flywheel to 254 hp at the wheels, and 272 lb-ft at the flywheel to 354 lb-ft at the wheels, but we can't be sure that his adjustments were within Ford Racing specs. Your mileage, naturally, may vary. What about custom numbers for the 2.3-liter EcoBoost in the 2015 Ford Mustang? They aren't ready yet, but we're told we'll get something by the end of next year.
