What you don't want to find. FYI that spot down low looks directly at the leaf spring mount -ouch.

Eh even of yours has some rust Sandy has 10 years of rust maturation on yours, lulz. Knock of the scale off and spray some rust converter on it. I'm just saying check good. Wish I had checked better somewhat because as much as I love sandy flipping it for something rust free would have been simpler. Don't tell her I said that.

You mean the stuff you paint over rust? Yes there are some good ones if you follow prep instructions. If you have a hole like Sandy you are past paint, lol.

No, I mean the stuff that's suppose to "restore shine and luster" to the plastic on cars. Bumper on the Rover looks a little faded.

I don't know but the head light stuff works and if they're painted then a good compound wax followed by quality wax does good on any oxidized paint job.

I'd pay 5800 for that, Voxx. But like DD said they have problems over 100k. Clean it up but it's not going to save you much on gas but no car payment is always a plus. You have to go all the way there to pick it up?

Nothing. Just didn't fall in love with it. Selling it.

I'd like an Excursion in the 6k price range. Gas, preferably a V8 and not a V10. Not 500 miles away cause that sucked.

Research suggest they exist in this price range, but have tons of miles if they do...as in over 250,000 miles.

This is up my alley because it's what I researched when I needed a tow vehicle for sandy but I will do nothing but try to steer you to a suburban or something smaller. I could give you a long list of reasons. If you are set on an excursion you really need to look at the diesels because their v-10 is no bueno really.

In case you aren't aware an excursion is a 3/4 truck chassis but in the case of the excursion it has soccer mom rear suspension and requires stabilizer bar from an f250 truck for true heavy duty.

I'm not going to be pulling anything my F150 can't handle. I'll also consider an Expedition. #Ford

I'd like a diesel, but as hman pointed out they're gas hogs...and good God diesel is expensive. I do not want one with a V10 tho.
