Let's just say I wanted an Excursion
 

What would be the average payment I could expect to pay for a basic Excursion, 4 x 2, 5.4L (Or diesel) with at the very least, leather seats, and the reverse-sensing system.

I'll bite. It would be $25, or $500 or $2500 a month but that's just a guess. :D

That's a question that can't be answered. A 2x4 5.4 Ex. could sell for $30k where one wiht a diesel may sell for $45k+. You may make a down payment, you may not. If you do it could be $100 or it could be $25k. You could finance for 90 days or 84 months. You could lease, you could do a walk away balloon, you could have great credit, you couldbe a bandit that couldn't buy a cup of coffee if someone gave you $.50......

That's just a start. The point is, you and your situation determine what your payments are going to be, or if you're going to have payments. :beers:

Well, that goes without saying FR- I guess I should be more specific.

I can probably finagle the dealership down to $30 - 35,000 for a 2004 Excursion 6.0 PSD since the 05's are on the lot already. I have X-plan so that should eliminate any negative equity I'll bring into the equation by trading my $44,000 2003 Expedition (That I got for $29,000, see: finagle).

I don't want my payments to exceed $650 a month. I have pretty good credit, OK- great credit. I'm just wondering if this number is in the ball park of what the current Excursion owners are paying. And secondly, does the Excursion have good resale value?

:lol:

Ford is killing off the Excursion....see my link in general discussion.

Have you looked at them? EB 4x4 PSD are going to run in the low $50's MSRP. X plan is going to be in the mid $40's. Last I loked the rebates were still managed down to something less than $2000.

Besides, how many 2004's have you seen on the lots? Many dealers don't even stock them anymore. The few that do tend not to keep more than 1-2 so inventory control is not a problem.

Unless something has drasticly changed in the new market, even with A Plan, you won't break $40k depending on equipment. About $10k off is about the best you'll do.

From there, do the math. $650 x 60/72 = $39000/$46800 for example.

ANd yes, it'll depreciate like a dag and real quick. :D We don't buy Excursions as an investment. :D

ON EDIT: Wait a minute Bighersh!! I just realized this isn't your thread yet you said "I should have been more specific". What's going on here ol' buddy?? :wave:
