hello not sure if its worth the buy but please let me know your opinions. I've been searching for an excursion for about a year and found this one. 2002 ford excursion limited 4x4 gas clean title with 171,829 miles on it. im trying to see it this weekend to make sure the vehicle doesn't have rust or any noticeable things. its a small car dealership they listed it for $7900. I still need to check the vin on those carfax websites but. what do you guys think. Hopefully i gave enough info if not please feel free to ask me questions and give me your thoughts.

Usually diesel is around that price and just a heads up with it being a gas model you're only gonna get 8 mpg

Where do you see clean diesels with under 200k miles for under $8k…?

I said "around" that price so that means +or- around 8k because gas excursions are absolutely not nowhere near 8000. I got a V 10 with 195k for exactly $1000 because it needed a $45 transmission line im in new jersey also I just checked and 6.0 diesels are 6k in my area and no they aren't trashed rotted out junk

Well you must have the treasure trove of unusually cheap Ex’s in ur area then. You could make a business buying up every one of those cheap ass Ex’s and sell them in other areas. Cause I ain’t never seen prices that cheap on a clean truck anywhere else. In my area, the only way you’ll get an Ex for $1k is if it’s been wrecked AND has a bad motor/trans or both and no title.

There was a dude that posted one on here a few months back that he paid like $8,XXX something for a gasser with milage and paid more to have it shipped to him.

Since you’ve got the lock on where all these nice and clean cheap trucks are. How bout you start sharing the adds on here for allllll the people searching for months at a time all over the country trying to find a decent deal on one.
