Plus the time/cost of the swap done right. I needed something that was ready for a trip the day after I tagged it. If I saw a nice black or green Duraburb on the way to get this Excursion I doubt there would be a Ford in my driveway today

Edit: Nothing against Malibu, but that is the reason I didn't want another GM gas SUV. After 200k alot needs replaced. We are stacking miles on a Tahoe and it just doesn't add up for me compared to a diesel. No vehicle is immune to problems, but for me it seems like this is the right direction to go.

zstroken: Fortunately..or maybe unfortunately, I am still "Young, Dumb, and full of cum."
I went in knowing alot had been neglected and needed to be replaced/rebuilt.. original sale add was "$700 engine problems"

Good luck
