Review
Been a Ford fan my whole life; this monster of an SUV has never failed me what so ever. For the size it's got good mpg, and it can have plenty of people in them at once. It can tow just about any thing a truck can as well, which is good for me because I love to go camping in a camper and take my boat places.

I have had my Excursion for over 2
years and so far no major problems. I
wish I had gotten the beeping bumper
because I did back into a pole. That
option is well worth it. The only
other problem I had is that someone
broke into the car on the driver's
side. Nothing was taken and since I
was not out there I am not sure if the
alarm went off or not.

I have driven my diesel excursion for
71,000 trouble free miles. Used it
from around town to towing, etc. I
have towed 11,500 lbs from Sebrign, Fl
to NC with the cruise on. My wife even
drove!!
It has been reliable, inexpensive
vehicle to own. A little laborious to
use to run to the grocery store, but
if you are o the highway, it is a
great truck.
Pluses.
Doesn't hydroplane in the WORST
rainstorms, Great power
20+ MPG highway Good brakes for a
vehicle of this size
Handles ANY tagalong trailer you can
throw at it.
Good seating position
drawbacks:
Don't rush to get anywhere or you
could get into trouble
Probably could handle a little better.

Very nice. Can haul 9 people and gear
anywhere...mud, snow...no problem.
Plenty of HP with the V10. No brainer
to pick the Excursion over the
suburban.

We recently bought this Big E after
many months of contemplation.(We also
looked at the Sequoia and the
Expedition, but there was no
comparison!) After several test drives
all over the state, we took the plunge.
Now that we own it, we take it
everywhere! Other Big E owners wave as
we go by, not to mention the respect
you get on the road!. Fuel mileage is
incredible...16 city and 20 hwy going
65mpg (with hills).The sound of the
diesel motor, inside the cabin, under
normal driving conditions, is minimal.
I would buy this vehicle again,and
again, and again!

The Beast is a pleasure to drive. Its
a vehicle that demands respect
everywhere you go. Other cars move out
of the way especially on the highway. I
bought the Beast to carry my four kids
in. I took a drive to Disneyland as well
as Mexico, and it gave me an average of
15 miles a gallon at speeds of 80-85.
I bought the 7.3 Liter diesel. No
smogging to do and I've been told the
engines last a long time.
