check the ball joints/front end parts, check to see if the manifold studs are broke, brakes sway bar end links..ect check the transmission over well i hope its been replaced by this point(miles)

take it on a extended test drive if possible, i would personally look for lower miles but it does look very clean!

it looks like a very clean late 2000.

Not a bad price and clean. Ive been looking for a 7.3l 4x4 excursion. Unfortunately they cost more than I want to spend lol

there are alot of nice V10s with around 100-120k miles for $8-10k around me. the diesels are just outrageous.

There are a few here but the bodys are a little beat up and stuff...i dont mind a little more mileage as long as everything else is clean and this one looks brand new so now i need to make sure there are no engine problems...

the V10 is very reliable, make sure it runs smooth, clean oil and full and no exhaust leaks and you should be good. transmission would be more worrisome.

i've had 3 V10 excursions (00,04 and my current 02) they are amazing beasts!!
