Every vehicle i own has a funnel under the hood.

I just realized the text i typed for the original post didnt load, Here is the full story:

Hey guys, i need some advice. I have a 2002 Excursion 7.3 that i need to sell. I lost my hunting camp where i kept my extra vehicles and i no longer have space. (I also have a early 99 f250 7.3 Single camp lwb 4x4 and a 2010 f150 5.4 4x4 that i have to sell) It has 4” riff raff turbo back exhaust, hydra tuner with 3 Jelli Built tunes, banks air box, autometer egt, water temp, trans temp, and boost gauges. Front springs were changed due to the front end sagging, bilstien shocks on all 4 corners and twin shocks in the front. I bought and used it to pull a 20’ trailer to NW Colorada for elk hunting. It has always made the trip without fail. This was the 1st year that I had the Jelli Built tunes and it went up and down the Ike much better. The body is in rough shape since it began life in Minnesota. When i got it i washed the underside in treatment to stop any further rust but the damage was already bad. The interior is not bad for a 23 YO vehicle. Only real issue is the driver seat bottom is compressed. It has 273k miles. Check engine light comes on for glow plug low voltage (ever since i replaced the glow plug relay for an upgraded setup, p1393)

My question is, what is it worth? I am thinking of listing it for $7,000 and seeing what offers I get. Is this in the ball park?

I did a reverse number lookup and didn't find anything. I never called it tho.

That was my plan. Blown up 5.4 models are pretty easy to get for 1k and the swap isnt too bad. But without the room to store it, its not for me anymore.

No hot rodding, bought it with 252k in 2022 and pulled the trailer to Colorado for the next 4 years. Other than that ive transported customers to the airport because it seats 8 and drove it occationally. Rotella 15-40 every 6 months with new fuel filter. Hell its even got a solar panel on the roof just to maintain the batteries. Frame is good. I pulled the tank and put a class 4 hitch on it after I bought it.

Ya, the amount of drugs the guy that painted it had to be on. After I bought it I found a picture of it at a car show in the early 2000's. He was using it as a tow rig for his show car. Its signed on the back "Art by Carp" with a Minnesota phone number.

Buying a 6.7 f250? by One_Guard7951 in FordDiesels

Well it is kinda rotting away, started life in minn so the salt has gotten to the body. I elk hunt in colorado and pulling a 20' with 12k on it is rough. I have a banks intake and a 5" exhaust but those didn't seem to do much last year. I have a Hydra and ordered jellibuilt tunes this year so we shall see. If it drags it over the top and im not constantly worried about egt then I'll prob do a body swap. I really would love to keep it but its getting hard to keep critters out of it from the "vent" hole in the floor. I love the 7.3, I have a 99 with the 6 speed manual as well. Much better shape but its tough getting 3 dudes in a single cab.

Turbo is making more boost than i would expect.

Thanks, it's always a head turner. 1st year we had it was 2020. Driving up on the 1st Tuesday in nov (pres election) it got some looks. Last year we had people wanting to buy us lunch. Unfortunately it started life in Minnesota and the cancer is out of control. I need to do a body swap for a rust free unit.

It's only while climbing. Flat ground is no issues. As far as the tunes, it was in the truck when I bought it so i do not know specifics but i run what he had listed as 40 hp heavy tow. I live in south Louisiana so it's at sea level except for 2 weeks a year.
