    2006 Expedition XLT... your thoughts?

    Wow! If you are looking at the vehicle I think you are (Red at Norris), I wonder how that Lifetime Engine and Drivetrain package is working out for the dealership? I wonder what all it covers? And you get lifetime $9.95 oil changes. Lifetime free car washes. Lifetime free towing. Free...

    2006 Expedition XLT... your thoughts?

    Depends on how bad you might want this vehicle. If you look at Kelley Blue Book, the price is not all that bad. Full suggested retail is about $21,000 to $22,000 using my Virginia zip code. Furthermore, Kelley Blue Book says the trade-in value in my zip code area is $17,000. And they are...

    2006 Expedition XLT... your thoughts?

    The Excursions came with the 7.3L diesel in the early years. They re good engines. Then Ford came out with a 6.0L in the Excursions. Don't ever buy an Excursion with the 6.0L diesel engine. There are living nightmares all over the country concerning the 6.0L engines. The chances of getting...

    Honda changed my mind

    My bad!!! I should back up a bit. I bought and paid for her 4X4 Explorer when she turned 16. It was a very clean low mileage vehicle at a good price. It's still clean and still very low mileage. After all, my father did buy me my very first car. Due to the lack of a credit history at age...

    2006 Expedition XLT... your thoughts?

    What kind of weight are you going to be towing? If you want a true tow vehicle, I would shop around for an Excursion before jumping out and buying anything. They're both gas guzzlers, so gas shouldn't be an issue. I'll sell you mine, 54K, for $16,900. And I'm willing to bet you would be...

    I am getting a visual of Delroy Lindo in "Gone in 60 Seconds"! :) Well, that's both good news and bad news. I found out over the weekend she wants to get rid of the Honda and get a Tahoe. I'm not sure this is going to happen unless somebody steals the Honda. Makes no sense to me, she will...

    When I said "very little value", I am speaking of $13,000 to $17,000 each. This is not what people expected. Just like we all hate to see the Marauders selling for about the same amounts now. This guy also bought a few GTOs back in 2005 and 2006 too. They are not bringing very much money as...

    Honda changed my mind

    There's just so many cars out there now to choose from. If I was in the market for a new car, I would have to spend 3 months deciding between a Camaro SS, Challenger R/T or a Mustang GT. Just like Dodge made the new Challenger look like the older models from the seventies, I would buy a new...

    Interesting. Why did you have to go so far to buy one? Better price? Our local Mercury dealer got in very few, but they always seemed to have at least one in stock at all times during the production runs. They would sit on the new car lot for 4 to 6 months before being sold.

    Winter storm on the way!

    About the same in Central Virginia. They were originally forecasting 4" to 6".

    I have a friend who started buying an Impala SS occasionally back in 1995 and 1996. He ended up with a black one, a Dark Cherry Metallic one and a Dark Grey Green one. He still has them all, low mileage, and just like new inside and out. Sadly enough, he has also discovered that they...

    In the scheme displayed here on MM.net on my monitor, it's easier to read in my opinion. I don't even know, is there a choice of color schemes here? Is it messing up anybody else as far as ease in reading it? :confused:

    Honda changed my mind

    In Virginia you can only tint your front windows to 50%. And the rear to 35%. But with a medical waiver you can take the front down to 35% to match the rear windows. The Virginia State Police used to administer the program when I got my medical waiver. But they have since turned it over to...

    We had two 24" snows during the Winter of 2009. And this is really unusual for Central Virginia. What you see in the Explorer picture is days later after half of it had melted.

    Fusions were definitely hot sellers at the time! I wish I could recall what Rapid Order Package was on the Fusions we looked at. They were pretty well loaded (but with cloth seats) and a sunroof. And they were priced at or around $21,000 with the Rapid Order Package and other savings...

    This is my daughter's vehicle also, in so many words. So you can see I am pretty much a Ford man when I can be. :)

    Honda changed my mind

    My daughter likes the Ford Fusion. Our local dealer had two in stock with a pretty good package and price, one white, one dark green (both had the sun roof as part of the "Rapid Order package"). We saw them after closing time one evening. By the time we got back to the dealership the next...
