This is my `05 Ford Excursion Eddie Bauer 6.0 Powerstroke Diesel 4x4

 Bittersweet05ex's 2005 Ford Excursion    www.bigtymeindustries.com

                                DRIVEN DAILY

It`s currently riding on an 10" Donahoe lift with Fox shocks. Tires are 37" x 13.50" R24 Toyo Open Country M/T`s on custom 24" x 12" Weld Racing wheels. The paint is "House of Kolors" Black, and Pewter with a tribal Tangerine Orange with a "TON" of Pearl separating the two with Silver Pearl bubbles floating thru. The interior is 2 tone leather seats, wool carpet from Mercedes, and every other square inch of it is wrapped in black, pewter, silver, and orange suede to match the tribal exterior paint. It gets lots of media attention and sees lots of shows and is also a daily driver.

                                                        

 My Excursion in the current issue of "Truckin' Magazine"...Volume 39, No.9  It's the Rock N' Roll Audio Issue and our feature starts on page 50.

 Last stereo system. There are 4 amplifiers. You can see the floating amp that is suspended between the 4 subs, and the other 3 are below it in the floor with a trim panel wrapped in suede.
