Not hating at all but your work van that you have was from her dad(Free) so when I saw your NEWSED truck had MD Tags I just figured it was from him aswell because no one really gives out "rental tags" anymore. Did you buy it from him?

Congrats on your new purchase. I dont sell shingles but I can sell you some Windows for your house when you need them

p.s. That is alot of stuff to buy for just buying it aswell. And what does owning your own buisness have to do with anything?

My bad, I just figured you was bustin ***** as usual. The dealership gave us hard plates when we left. That was part of the deal. I have hard plates and registration already. I bought it from I-97 Auto mall. I found it off autotrader.com

I posted the info on it a few posts up. Her dad just sold his Excursion. I think his was a 2000. It was the same except his was black. I can afford more **** now cause owning a business means I make alot more money. Not even mentioning all the things I get to write off now.

Come by this weekend and we can go for a spin

The excursion is noice, and huge. 3 row seats, leather, cd, Triton V-10. I like it, very good condition for what he paid, and will last 300k miles or more.

I still think he needs to put some flashier rims on it. Maybe some Spinnahs!!

Super nice truck.

300k miles? Come on man its a ******* FORD.

The way that dave is with cars, it should last up to 300k miles. And it is a piston engine to say the least, not a rotary.

Yeah, diesels fire off of the high compression. Most of them have compression greater than 15:1. They are quite creative, and get good gas mileage once they are broken in. I don't know what the breaking in stage is.

A bunch of my friends and I drove one from Boston to NYC for a weekend trip when it first came out. We averaged about 8mpg on the highway, and no we weren't reaming on it. Mileage aside it was a pretty decent highway car when kept under 80. At 80+ it had a tendency to wander, which was alarming since it didn't have to move that much before it was in another lane.

Once we got into the city is was a blast. Since we would need 3 cabs to cart everyone around to clubs we decided to go 'biggie style' and valet the truck in front of them instead

The highlight of the trip was when my friend was driving down a narrow street in Soho and clipped two side view mirrors on opposite sides of the street at the same time! What a menace!

I have personaly taken two ford rangers past 200k. Those were bothe work trucks that I neglected badly too keep in mind. I never understand why the heaters bad mouth Fords. I have had more than a couple and they keep on tickin no matter what you do to them.

No worries my V-10 will be running strong long after your Chevrolet interior has peeled and rotted away.

I have a truck, you have a rap posse transport.
