2004 Ford Excursion 6.0l 4wd Super Low Mileage on 2040-cars

Klamath Falls, Oregon, United States

I purchased this 2004 Excursion brand new.  I planned to keep it but ten years later my situation has changed and it needs to find a new home.  Here is a list of the items that have been done to both upgrade its abilities and to fix Ford issues mainly with the 6.0L.  

Starting with the engine.  Professional rework of the engine to include ARB Head Studs, Liberator External Oil Cooler, upgraded FICM and Bulletproof EGR Cooler.  If you have done any research on the Ford 6.0L engine these modifications are necessary to have confidence that the vehicle can be used for daily driving as well as towing.  Talk to a diesel mechanic, the 6.0L is an excellent engine once these modifications are completed.  These upgrades cost over $5000.

Also added is a AMS Bypass Oil Filtration System.  This system takes a small amount of oil from the top of the oil filter and runs it through a 2 micron AMS Filter.  This system is in operation in parallel with the Ford oil filtration system but has a much more efficient filter.  Ultra clean oil means super long engine life.

AirAid air filtration system.  The better an engine breathes the more power it can develop.

The oil pans on the transmission and the rear differential have been replaced by Mag-Hytec Units.  These oil pans almost double the oil capacity of the reservoirs.  More oil equals lower temperatures.  The differential cover also has a dipstick that also contains a magnet so you can see if there are any problems.

Batteries have been replaced with Odyssey AGM Batteries.  These are the best batteries made today for an automobile.  

Firestone Air Bags with an on board air compressor allow for height adjustment when pulling a trailer.  I did not have to use much air pressure but I believe the ride was improved by the addition of the air bags.

New Monroe Shocks on all four corners and front tie rod dampener assembly ~500 miles ago.

New Napa Super Premium rotors and brakes on the front axle ~ 200 miles ago.

I replaced the Ford 4WD front locking hubs with high quality Warn Locking Hubs due to having intermittent operation of the Ford Hubs in winter.  It is not acceptable to me to have a feature unavailable due to the OEM's design being inadequate.  The hubs do have to be engaged manually however the vehicle can be used in the 2 wheel drive mode with the hubs left locked in and there is no problem doing that.  

I have installed the following Autometer Gauges to be able to monitor engine, transmission and rear differential parameters.  Engine exhaust temperature, engine turbo boost pressure, engine oil pressure, transmission oil temperature to the cooler and rear differential temperature.  I work as an operator at a power plant and am able to monitor conditions around the plant with installed instrumentation.  Ford did not have the instrumentation that I believe is necessary to monitor your vehicle especially while towing so I added it.

Brand new windshield as of 9/8/2014 thanks to a big rock.

This vehicle is what I would consider barely broken in.  It is ready to go and I doubt you could find a more capable Excursion anywhere.  I have a lot of pride in the work that has been done on this vehicle.

There are a few minor dings and scratches, very minor and they do not take away from the vehicle at all.

If you have any questions or need more information please let me know.

Couple more items for the Excursion:


A Superchips Tuner and Code Reader is included with the vehicle.  I used the "economy" mode mainly with the truck and when rolling down the highway was able to get 18 mpg at 65 mph.  Not to bad for a rig of this size.

There is a Tekonsha Trailer Brake Controller that is located between the oil pressure and differential temperature gauges also goes with the truck.

Once again if you need anymore pictures of anything please ask.

All maintenance records, window sticker, and receipts will go with the vehicle if you want them.

There has never been any smoking in the rig.

Ken Block ain't got a care about ruining his wheels

Tue, 22 Jan 2013

During a drifting session at Irwindale Speedway in California, Ken Block made a boo-boo that would send a number of drivers immediately back to the infield. But there's an answer to "What do you do when you bash the wall while drifting and your wheel explodes?" and there's completely different answer when the question begins with the phrase, "When you're Ken Block..."
Instead of us telling you how Block handled the calamity in his Ford Fiesta competition car, you can watch it happen in the video below. You can probably also guess what it is - but it's more fun to watch.

Ford books $2.6B pretax quarterly profit

Thu, 24 Jul 2014

While its crosstown competitors at General Motors are smarting over a drastic drop in net income to $200 million in the second quarter, Ford has reason to celebrate. The Blue Oval has announced its own Q2 financial results, including a growing net income of $1.3 billion, a $78 million increase over last year. Pretax profits for the company reached $2.6 billion, up $44 million from 2013, but total revenue dropped slightly to $37.4 billion, down from $37.9 billion. Profits per share before one-time charges totaled 40 cents per share, beating Wall Street analysts' expectations of 36 cents a share.
Regionally, the Blue Oval performed strongly, as well. North America posted a record quarterly pre-tax profit of $2.4 billion, a $119 million increase. Europe also showed signs of turn around with its first profit in three years of $14 million after a loss of $306 million in Q2 2013. Ford is actually predicting profitability in the troubled region in 2015. Asia Pacific operations also performed well with $159 million in profits, up $29 million from last year. The only region where the business posted a loss was South America.
According to Automotive News, Ford also announced more precise plans about the changeover to build the aluminum-intensive 2015 F-150. In August, the Dearborn plant will shutdown for eight weeks to retool and its Kansas City plant will do the same next year.

2016 Ford Mustang SVT hides big power under its domed hood

Tue, 17 Jun 2014

With a number of 2015 Ford Mustang versions finally available to configure, the fun of speculating about next year's high-performance 'Stang can now begin. It looks like Ford has something seriously fun planned too. One of our spy photographers just snapped some fresh pics of the 2016 Mustang SVT, which is believed to be hiding the final body shape under all of that heavy camouflage.
Ford clearly doesn't want prying eyes looking at its new pride and joy. It would be hard to put much more obfuscation on a car than this one wears - it even has mesh baffles around the exhausts to conceal how many there are and panels over the wheels to hide their design. However, the Blue Oval can't keep everything a secret. The biggest clue that something special is hidden underneath is the massive hood bulge and vent in front of it. Clearly, whatever is under there is hungry for cool air. The shape of the camo indicates that there may be fender vents on each side, and there are also obscured outlets behind the front wheels likely to pull cool air through the brakes. At the rear, the concealment does its job, making it hard to observe any big changes. The fact that Ford wants it kept such a secret might indicate something, though.
A few photos of the interior show far less cover than the outside. You can easily make out the model's 6,500 rpm redline with a possible 7,000 rpm over-rev function. The big Recaro sport seats also look quite supportive.
