Hello, not sure which one I would think about selling yet. None are actually for sale yet but after thinking about it just having 5 trucks and only driving 1 of them at a time tells me it may be time to seriously think about it.

Here is what I have. I would drive any of the 4 across the country without hesitation.

1. 1999.5 F350 7.3 XLT Crew Cab Dually 104k miles, 4x4 long bed, black. Very Clean Grey cloth int, New Bilsteins up front, new abs sensors, Runs xlnt. Was My daily driver, has some chips, dings, and If I would be keeping it I would get a new tailgate or fix the one on there...

2. 2002.5 F350 7.3 XLT Crew Cab Dually 59k miles, 2wd, long bed roll along package, white. Snug top shell, amazing condition in and out. Always stored inside, drive it twice a month to keep things moving and batteries charged. I think I would want way to much money if I decided to sell it, I have been offered 30k and turned it down without even thinking about it so not sure what it would take to think about selling this one...I saw a few online that were similar BUT they were asking 45k and one for 42k (crazy crazy numbers in my opinion).

3. 2003 7.3 Excursion Lariat, 4x4, 151k, 4" lift, New 35" tires, front tow hitch, ice cold dual air, Heated Seats, cd player blue tooth sterio/phone, mint condition in and out, I can guarantee it would be the cleanest Excursion you will ever see unless you see a new one. Runs Xlnt, truck looks like it just came off the showroom floor. I even have towels placed over the floor mats to make sure I get no marks on the carpet, no one is allowed to eat or drink in it unless it is water, lol yes I am that anal. Drive it twice a month to keep things moving and batteries charged. I have been offered 30k and turned it down when I was at the ford dealer looking for some info on the larger new Bronco's.

4. 2000 F350 7.3 Lariat, Crew Cab Dually 135k, 4x4, long bed, white. Very Clean in and out, manual 4x4 vs vacuum, rebuilt trans for towing, air bags, bilsteins, 5th wheel hitch, banks kit with tuner, train horn, runs xlnt, I think this is the one I may keep so I did not include pics YET, I change my mind a few dozen times a day so you never know..

If you saw the 2002.5 2wd crew cab and the Excursion you would understand my hesitation in thinking of selling either of those two. I doubt I would or could ever find 2 so clean ever again. The black 1999.5 looks amazingly clean inside, super low miles for a 4x4, outside small rock chips around, tailgate has dents. 4 trucks is crazy and I recently bought a 96 bronco a few weeks ago so wife says "Do you really need 5 trucks"? Made me really think....She thinks I am nuts and says keep them all if you want to but stop mind Fking over what to do with so many trucks. lol.

Pictures to follow....

2wd kills it for me. That would be my first choice to go. The others look like they are just a new paint job away from the white one. All of your trucks are low millage so I wouldn't worry about that.

I was actually thinking of painting the black one white and keeping it with only 104k on it...but I would want a nice job done so we are talking 4-6k my guess. The Excursion looks brand new no paint needed, the white one I have that is not for sale is in great condition as well, the 2wd if that was 4x4 that would be the keeper for sure but I like having the 4x4 ability just in case it is needed so you may be right, 2wd should be the first to go...we will see...

How'd you end up with so many so close in age?

When does the bidding start? I thought my excursion was clean until I saw yours!! If it was white I’d make you an offer. That color clashes with my toys.

I only like 7.3's so it was easy, 1999.5 (2nd half of 99 was the better built) up to first 6 months of 2003 so it was really only a 4 year span that I was interested in. Now if you ask me why I have so many...I can only say I have a problem lol....

When I first was told the color I told my wife NO WAY IN HELL I HATE ALL BROWN VEHICLES....then I saw it...I was sold the minute I saw how nice it looked...

. The color would hide the dust of az. But if I replace my wife’s v10 excursion it will have to be white.

After doing my research across the US on these trucks and prices I Just put up the Black one on Autotrader for $23500.00 lets see what happens...of course a lower RD price if someone from RDs buys it.

Greg is a standup no bullshit dude, I personally talked with him for a few weeks about buying one of his trucks but I could not get my beautiful wife to go for a dually. These trucks are cleannnnnnn and well maintained. Someone needs to jump on these.

Yup no question. I still kick myself for not buying his last excursion.

Its a novel sorry.

OK edited my original post. All new window motors in on Tuesday am, new tires up front, rears are in great shape, got it aligned along with any part that may have some sloppiness or not tight, they changed the drag link, tie rod ends and some other parts, got it aligned now I will be comfortable selling it to anyone.
As anyone that has ever bought anything from me knows I like to get everything in the best shape I can before selling something, and I always disclose anything that I think I would want to know if I was to buy something. I cant stand buying something from someone and they knew something was wrong or possibly wrong and them hiding it...it's just wrong and not the way I do things so that is why I got all this done before I let anyone buy it.

White 2wd with 59k miles, drove it in the rain the other day and the wipers did not work, have not had time to check if it is a fuse, if it is it will be changed, if it is a motor it will be changed..other than that white one is in amazing condition in and out.
