Especially since that vehicle new was less than 40K.......14 years ago!

While clean/low mileage is rare, it isn't "priceless!"

The sticker on my 2000 with a V10 was 41k. If I remember the Diesel was a 7k adder

If you want a Ford diesel and cant afford a 6.7, the 7.3 is your only option. My 7.3 crew cab short bed has 265k on it. Only thing worn is the steering wheel. It would take $20k for me to think about selling it.

Is that how much those trucks command realistically?

You can find a clean Suburban 2500 with the 8.1 for 18k all day long...................

I had one before buying a 7.3 Excursion. The Suburban was a great vehicle, gas mileage was terrible. Mine had the LT auto ride, when towing it would auto. level out, very nice feature. Nice vehicle but doesn't compare to the Excursion in heavy duty situations, the Excursion is more like a truck and tows better with heavy weight and long loads. I put 10 of thousands of miles on both and would own either one depending on what I was pulling.

A guy in my town cut the rear open on an Excursion so it is now a crew cab with a small open bed......truck is lifted, painted and the metal work is pretty straight.....looks good but it throws you off a bit when you see it as it is too short for a crew cab pickup and the lack of a bed gap tells you something is wrong but when you see the excursion tailgate you realize what it was.

According to a Car and Driver article from that era the diesel was 4K extra over the V10. My buddy bought a leftover 2003 Eddie Bauer brand new for almost 10K off sticker, he still drives it today (160K+) miles on it and the truck is flawless with the exception of the seat bottoms/armrests. His is dark green and definitely has the "family truckster" look which had to have hurt the saleability back when it was new as it sat on the lot over a year. His is is also 2WD which limits the buyers but 4WD isn't really required in Florida for soccer mom duty!

The Excursion goes on sale as we speak, offered in two trim levels, XLT and the leather-lined Limited--there's no Eddie Bauer edition, at least for now. Base prices range from $34,135 for the two-wheel-drive, 5.4-liter XLT version to $44,885 for a four-wheel-drive Limited turbo-diesel. XLT four-wheel-drivers start at $37,450. The V-10 Limited with four-wheel drive, our primary subject during this preview, starts at $40,880

Same idea as an Avalanche?
