Get a 100,000 mile warranty. Diesels are expensive to repair.

Re: Tow Vehicle - 2005 Excursion
 

I got a price off the net for about 1800$ less that what was quoted. I think I can get it at that, at least. It just sucks that I have to have an SUV and GM isnt putting out the Duramax Suburban until 07 at the earliest now :mad:

I am going to get this I think, then if and when I get a bigger boat I will be ready :D

Does anyone have the 6 litre Diesel? Sounds like it is a great motor. It pushed that Excursion along great.
I will be putting a 2 inch lift and 33's on it with some 18 to 20" rims, a center brush bar etc etc...

Re: Tow Vehicle - 2005 Excursion
 

i love mine, put the edge/juice/attitude on it, have a new exhaust and intake on order.... new wheels/tires when i find something i like...... it burns the tires off through second gear on level 3, haven't tried 4 or 5 yet.... :eek:

Sorry I missed this thread... I have been snow skiiing in Vermont all weekend. Jeff, thanks for the referral. Masher44, that does seem like a good price. What color are you looking for? I have a white/ tan, mineral grey limited and solid black that I drove for a demo. I will give you a great deal on any of them if you are interested. Call me tomarrow. 910-330-1911
Thanks,

Re: Tow Vehicle - 2005 Excursion
 

GM is going to put a diesel in the 'Burban?? That is good news if they do. The news of '05 being the last year for the Excursion scared me a little. I wanted to wait a few years but didn't want to miss put on the Diesel SUV, so I was considering an Excursion later this year. So will I have other options in a few years??

Re: Tow Vehicle - 2005 Excursion
 

I dunno why GM still has not put the duramax in the suburban. It sure seems like they would sell a bunch of them.
