Howdy, Folks!  I've had a number of great questions about this Diesel Excursion.  The questions have come from neighbors near and far, inc. Michigan, Ohio, and Florida!  I thought I would share some of the information with you, the Bold Bidders!!  Below are some of our conversations this week:  
 
Greetings!  Thanks for the kind reply and questions.  
re:  Does front heads up display work what does it say what the MPG is? 
Yes!  The front heads up display works, and so does the Back-Up Sensor.
We got about 17 mpg on our 2000+ mile trip last summer on the Interstate, and right now it's reading 13.5 around town.
 
re:  Has it ever been "off- road?"
Based on the essentially scratch- free gorgeous/pearlescent ["Oxford White Clearcoat"]  paint finish, I would have to say 'No.'  I'm not the original owner, but doing a walk-around, I could not even find a door- ding from the grocery store/ Sporting Goods/ or big box Hardware Depot.  Really folks, check the photos... she looks nearly NEW... even the driver's seat is devoid of the traditional 'slide-in/out' wear markings / holes.  Oh... I almost forgot:  I am about 6'2" in my boots and I never see the couple of dents in the top.  Tree branch fell?  Golf ball hit?  It's not bad [no leak, etc] so it was "out of sight, out of mind" for us.
 
re:  In the photo, your Inspection Sticker reads 6/'14.  Any problems?
Fresh Sticker now read good 'till 7/2015!  I put on new wiper blades {just because it was near time for such}... and there was absolutely no problem passing the inspection with the EGR Kit.
 
re:  Will you accept a loan check? 
Of course checks are OK.  Even personal checks... they just might take longer to clear.  If you don't have all the financing lined up already, I've gotten really good help from the folk in CA with https://www.mycccu.com, The Christian Community Credit Union... they have the title for this Excursion right now.
 
re:  Do you have any shippers you have worked with before? 
Yes.  The last buyer was in Dallas/Ft Worth, Texas area, but he was in Med. School in CO and needed a 4x4! The shipper we used was excellent.
 
re:  If I decide to come get it myself how fast would you need it picked up?
You or your bank / credit union can send the check... then I can be flexible as to the pick-up date.
 
re:  Do you have a programmer on truck?
When we installed the EGR Kit, the paper-work said that sometimes the Check Engine light will come on...  sometimes not.  Sure enough, the CEL light came on.  We checked the codes and 'EGR' was the only thing showing.  It is my understanding that one of the beauties of having a diesel is that a person can calibrate one's preferences re: power and engine efficiency.  If we were to keep this rig, I would definitely consider getting an all-in-one tuner/scan tool to calibrate the fuel delivery / airflow improvement for instant power, as well as have the "service technician" diagnostic capabilities with its ability to scan and clear vehicle trouble codes.
 
re:  Does it have rear DVD / rear entertainment system? The Excursion does have a nice Pioneer DVD Player/CD/AM/FM radio receiver w/ motorized flip-out 7-inch wide touch screen unit.
 
As one can see in photo [#9?], there is not a rear DVD screen installed for the rear entertainment system.  This is the way I bought it, so we enjoyed the vehicle that way.  I do have a replacement screen [OEM Ford, but not a great one] but I would rather the new owner determine his/her exact needs and preferences as to the exact rear entertainment video equipment.  [If when taking delivery, you decide that the one I have will suffice, we can pop it in place and secure with the two Phillips screws.]
 
Thanks... we'll chat soon!

Greetings friend,

 

I have received another question about the Reserve price...

If you have a number in mind... feel free to float it by me as we are NEGOTIABLE!

 

Here is how I answered the other Bidder:

 

"Here is how I have it listed locally:

 

NADA Book Value Clean Retail = $19,500

[+ ADD Value for: Custom Rims & Tires,

Pioneer Sound, with CD/DVD

NEW Fluids Change, and

EGR Kit], etc...

 

So my Local Asking Price of $18,750 {...or Best Offer}

I think is a reasonable starting price for negotiations.

My wife is quite motivated to sell this as two of our 4 kids just flew out of the nest.  We've incurred a lot of expenses between two graduations [college and high school, plus one wedding within the past two months...  and more college expenses coming!] 

 

We love this Excursion, but it is harder to get the six of us to travel and vacation as much together anymore.  -And we've yet to tow the boat to the water this year with all the other family events!  -So, our family transitions are to your gain!!

 

Feel free to Leave a Message or Text me at..."

Top torque-to-weight ratios under $100k, $50k and $25k

Tue, 07 Oct 2014

Horsepower may steal a lot of headlines, but the always-more-complex torque figure is often a critical one for both the workingman and the motoring playboy. The measure of rotational force represents the twist that can liquefy one's tires or haul one's horse trailer. Good stuff.
It follows then, that as with the horsepower-to-weight list that we assembled for you a few months ago, a list of cars that offer the most pound-feet with the fewest pounds to carry, is an interesting one to break down. Sure, there's a big difference in how the torque is applied from a turbocharged six-cylinder in a Swedish luxury sedan and a massive heavy-duty truck's turbo-diesel. But being the car/stat geeks that we are, we think it's kinda neat that those two vehicles rank near each other where torque and weight intersect.
As with the horsepower list, we've given you figures as pounds per every one pound-foot. Again broken down into broad price categories, we've got a mixed bag of 2014 and 2015 models here, too. Every effort has been made to select the most up-to-date prices and specs, and we've also to omitted some '14 cars that won't be re-upped after the ongoing yearly changeover.

Tier 1 suppliers call GM the worst OEM to work with

Mon, 12 May 2014

Among automakers with a big US presence, General Motors is the worst to work for, according to a new survey from Tier 1 automotive suppliers, conducted by Planning Perspectives, Inc.
The Detroit-based manufacturer, which has been under fire following the ignition switch recall and its accompanying scandal, finished behind six other automakers with big US manufacturing operations. Suppliers had issues with trust and communications, as well as intellectual property protection. GM was also the least likely to allow suppliers to raise their prices in the face of unexpected increases in material cost, all of which contributed to 55 percent of suppliers saying their relationship with GM was "poor to very poor."
GM's cross-town competitors didn't fare much better. Chrysler finished in fifth place, ahead of GM and behind Dearborn-based Ford, which was passed for third place this year by Nissan. Toyota took the top marks, while Honda captured second place.

George W. Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 fizzles with $300,000 bid at Barrett-Jackson [UPDATE: w/video]

Sun, 20 Jan 2013

Despite some truly impassioned pleading from Jay Leno himself - including calling on Arizona's notoriously Republican-rich voters to beat the $600,000 level set the last time Leno sold a vehicle for this particular charity... in California - bidding for George Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 pickup truck stalled at $300,000.
All proceeds will be sent to the Fisher House Foundation, so at least it's $300K going to a good cause. Feel free to check out the live image gallery above, which includes shots showing Leno's skills helming the auction, and read through the official auction description below.
*UPDATE: Video of the auction and Leno's prods to the crowd for more money can now be seen below.
