Thats what will probably happen to me. I keep telling her when we get one I am giving her my old Chevy and driving the Excursion. I don't think its going to go over that easy though.

V10 Excursion is fine by me ! I'll welcome any Excursion owner.

You're gonna need a tuner to get decent fuel mileage.....well worth the $$......plus you'll need gauges for it if you tow

I've been gone for quite a while. Work, family, team, all taking up all of my time...

After much soul searching, reading, research and debate, I think I've finally decided on my next rig.

I'm in the same boat as 2muchjunk:(

A diesel excursion will fit my needs perfectly! (guess they don't make a duramax Suburban?).

So now I have to find one at the right price. And I too have no freakin' idea what I'm looking at?

Let me ask a stupid question right off the bat and feel free to :bat:me if the need arises.

I've seen threads where you have to pull the cab to do some of the repairs/mods on the pick 'em ups....

Is the same thing required of the Ex? That's gotta be a major PITA!

If you don't mind, I'll probably be lurkning in this section more than anywhere else on the forum and hoping to learn a few things

Thanks:c:

I've never heard of that on an Excursion.....might be the newer stuff

Thats one thing I am wondering about the 6.0. I know on the 6.0 super duty you have to pull the cab to do any work. It's not that bad of a job because ford designed it to be pulled off. The only problem is you need a 2 post lift and I don't have one of them in my driveway. I don't think you have to do that with the 7.3. So I am thinking of going to the old reliable 7.3.

Thanks Junk.

That's exactly what I was talking about:c:

I too think I'm going to look for a 7.3. Seen plenty of them around and they seem to have a great track record. Won't be a DD, so don't have to worrk too much about fuel economy. It'll by primarily a team truck to tow the boats and such.
