Another Excursion question

Okay,
I am know I just asked a question about a 6.0 in an Ex. But I just found a 7.3L, 4X4, 150K miles, Torador (sp) Red which my wife loves. Anyway, they are asking just under 15K. It has been on the lot for a while, Carfax shows clean title and no apparent probs. Pictures show a very nice car. The fella selling it only sells vehicles, no financing (he says "you have to go get that on your own" our Credit union said no prob) so it's not one of those tote the note places.

So after all that, what are reasons would one of these things (Ex) sit on a lot for a while? It was last bought at an auction November / December 2007. 1 owner bought in Colorado and sold here in Texas.

I am a graduate of the school of ...If it seems too good to be true.......

Any thoughts?

I guess to me that doesn't seem all that long...

I found mine in April 07 and from the Carfax the dealer aquired it in January. Not every vehicle is in and out in a few days.

One thing to check out though is what the interior may look like. When we were searching for ours we ran across a couple deals like you mention, but when we went to see them in person the interiors were more than well worn. When we found mine, the interior sold me almost immediately. It was immaculate.

I bought used Excur and took it to my AAA approved Ford dealership and for $84.00 they went through the truck, gave me the Oasis report and fixed a couple of recalls. 50,000 mile later one CPS and regular maintenance no problems. I took it to the dealer before I bought it, the lot I bought it from let me take the truck for three days to see if we liked it.
