So, since I got a cap on the back of mine, am I not close to an excursion? I got the bed carpeted too!

Sorry.... Excursion owners are a breed all to our own. We are an extinct group too.... we're driving collector trucks... I mean SUV's... I mean "buses".

But we'll be your friend... but the extra weight in the back-end of an Excursion allows us or gives us better winter/snow traction than an empty pick-up.

Plus my Excursion is not a "8 person" truck it is a "1 man 7 women" truck... beats your pick-up any day huh???

Who says mine is empty. 400 pound cap, 50 pound NOS bottle and two Optima Yellow tops in Aluminum Taylor Battery Boxes. I got plenty of weight. Plus I usually carry my toolkit, a gallon of anti-freeze, a gallon of oil, oil filters, fuel filters, spare CAC connectors and hump hoses, spare clamps and a roll of high-temp duct tape. :D

Alrighty then, we'll meet at KCIR in Raytown on opening Test n' tune night and race for pinks.:nana: I always wanted one of those busses for the wife.

BTW- I can carry plenty of ladies in the bed. The carpeting is nice and comfy and the cap window comes out. :p

OK... you win and no way am I racing for pinks.

Wow... I'll have to bring the sife and try out that carpeting in the rear of your truck... never done it there before... but the rear seat of my Excursion is a lot softer.

Now that is funny... now where is the nearest alignment shop... I think it is the Missouri alignment shop owners that pay the state to make the roads so bad... there has to be a reason considering they get all that riverboat gambling and it is sure not going to the schools or roads... so where is it going????

Something tells me that "bashers, haters and trolls" will not last long here... if I have anything to say with it.

Welcome... aren't Excursions the best? I now have 90,000 miles on my 2003 and I try like heck to babby it so I can enjoy it for another 200,000 miles (I have the 6.0L PSD)... so it is possible. I love the room and carrying capacity for friends, kids, dog and "junk" in general.

Blows a Suburban away for style, power, safety and towing.
