I have a 2000 ford excursion that I bought new. Its a 2wd which is fine since we dont get alot of snow. OMG hands down this is my fav of my two cars. My other is a vw beetle 2002. Both have almost the same mileage, yet the bug is a pos. Never again going with VW. As for the Excursion, almost 70,000 miles and only problem is my cruise control stopped working and the door lock in front isnt working. Not bad for a vehicle thats over 10 years old!!
